Chimera #2
Also known as: Chimera 2
Breeder: BeLeaf Cannabis
Chimera #2 is a specific phenotype selection from BeLeaf Cannabis's White Truffle x The Creature cross — the same lineage that produced Chimera #3. Originally released as a clone-only cut at $10,000, Chimera #2 was selected for its dessert-forward terpene profile and strong commercial performance. Where Chimera #3 is known for foxtailed structure and citrusy wine nose, Chimera #2 leans toward butterscotch, caramel, and port wine aromatics with denser, more traditionally structured flowers.
Lineage & Genetics
Cross: White Truffle x The Creature
White Truffle (Gorilla Butter F2 pheno selected by BeLeaf Cannabis; GG4 x Peanut Butter Breath) contributes dense, dark flowers with savory cream, butter, and garlic notes. The Creature (sativa-dominant Love Seed bred by BeLeaf from accidental hermaphrodite event) contributes tropical fruit and nectarine terpenes with natural foxtailing and heavy resin production.
Terpene Profile
Limonene — Citrusy sweetness underlying the caramel and orange tic tac notes; dominant terpene per Leafly aggregated data for the Chimera line
Caryophyllene — Spicy warmth that anchors the rich, dessert-like profile
Linalool — Creamy, floral softness contributing to the custard and vanilla character
Humulene — Earthy, woody depth per SeedFinder terpene data for the Chimera line
Pinene — Pine and herbal freshness noted in some phenotypes
Aroma: Distinctive dessert-forward nose of butterscotch, caramel, and port wine with secondary notes of orange candy and creamy custard. Some phenotypes express the White Truffle parent's gassy, garlicky undertones beneath the sweetness.
Flavor: Rich, creamy smoke with creme brulee, flan, and custard on the palate. Exhale carries butterscotch pudding character. Port wine and brown sugar round out the finish.
Effects & Experience
Onset: Moderate — effects build within the first few minutes
Balanced between euphoric cerebral energy and relaxing body calm. Clear-headed, creative uplift paired with physical ease that does not typically cause heavy sedation. Uplifting and suitable for daytime use despite the indica-leaning ratio.
Duration: 2-3 hours
Commonly Reported Uses
Growing Characteristics
Grow Tips: Large colas need extra trellis support. Produces early frost and plump, powdery white trichome-coated calyxes. Clones easily. Approximately 4% fresh frozen hash yield. Some S1 phenotypes may show minor mutant leaf characteristics (duck-foot patterns) that are cosmetic only.
History & Origin
Chimera #2 is one of several numbered phenotype selections from BeLeaf Cannabis's White Truffle x The Creature cross, bred in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Selected specifically for its dessert-forward terpene expression and commercial yield potential, distinguishing it from Chimera #3 which was chosen for foxtailed structure and citrusy wine aromatics. The original clone was released at $10,000. S1 seeds reported an 84% winner ratio (21 out of 25 plants). Became a key breeding parent for the Permanent Chimera collaboration with Seed Junky Genetics.
