From the boring part to the fun part, I have tried covering it all. Scroll down to know more about this amazingly new strain.
Overview Of The Strain
Donny Burger strain is the best thing that came out of Adam Sandler’s filmography. Not many people know this, but the strain has gotten its name after Adam Sandler’s iconic movie That’s My Boy. Even though the news is unconfirmed, people believe that the strain was named after the character he played in the aforementioned movie.
Even though the movie tanked at the box office, the strain that it inspired is anything but a flop. In fact, it is one of the most sought-after Indica-dominant strains out there. The strain contains 60% indica and 40% sativa lineage. Hence, expect an Indica-leaning series of effects.
While ‘reviewing’ this strain, I felt that the Donny Burger stain is one of the most versatile strains in existence. Regardless of your preference, the strain will be able to satiate your craving with a high THC profile. The THC profile of the Donny Burger strain ranges from around 22% THC to a whopping 30% THC.
Genetic Mapping
The Donny Burger strain is primarily a hybrid strain with some of the best accolades in existence. Hence, it is very important that we start analyzing the parent strains in order to effectively understand what makes the strain special.
The Donny Burger strain is one of the most stable cannabis hybrids in existence. The strain is a product of crossing the iconic GMO with Han-Solo Burger. Both the parent strains are some of the top-shelf strains in existence. Therefore, the end product is naturally an iconic strain with amazing characteristics.
Here is a detailed rundown of all the important details you need to know about the parent strains.
GMO
GMO is a familiar to cannabis connoisseurs. GMO strain is an Indica-dominant strain with 90% indica and 10% sativa genetics. This strain is a product of crossing the Chemdawg with the Girl Scout Cookies strain. Hence, the strain is definitely one of the best Indica-dominant strains in existence.
GMO strains have been around for a good while and were first created by Divine Genetics. Still, the cannabis community seems to be confused about the full form of the acronym. The scientific pot-loving community claims that it stands for Genetically Modified Organisms. Others believe that it stands for Garlic Mushroom Onion, reminiscent of the smell that it gives off.
GMO is an almost perfect indica strain with a THC content bordering around 30%. Hence, this is not the strain that you should consume during the middle of the week. Otherwise, you will have a tough time getting your work done.
Han-Solo Burger
The next parent strain of the Donny Burger strain is the Han Solo strain. Well, personally, I feel that the name is a sly dig at Harrison Ford. But trust me on this: the strain is no joke. It definitely lives up to its name and is one of the finest strains from the Star Wars line of strains like the iconic Skywalker, Stardawg, Jedi OG, etc.
Similar to the aforementioned strain, this is an Indica-dominant Hybrid strain with 70% indica and 30% sativa lineage. This goes very well with the GMO strain.
The Han Solo Burger strain is a product of the iconic Larry OG and the GMO Cookies. Therefore, the product is a high-yielding strain with one of the best potency in existence.

Flavor
As for tor the flavor, it is not that big of a departure from the aroma. However, the flavor profile has more garlic and oniony flavor than the aroma. In fact, I can even say that the flavor profile was a tad bit harsher than what I expected.
With every swig that I was taking, I was able to sense that there was a potent flavor profile that was reminiscent of the iconic flavor of the Slurricane strain. Meanwhile, one of my friends claimed that the strain boasts a pine, peppery, and harsh flavor like the Black Runtz.

This is something that can be noticed across the Burger line of strains. Finally, the surface of the buds is covered with bright orange-colored pistils. This makes it a visually appealing strain.
In fact, the bright hues of the strain really make it one of the most visually iconic strains of all time, alongside the iconic White Widow strain. But you are not here for how the strain looks.
