Origin
Snowball is Chem 4 OG crossed with The White, an S1 selfing of the Chem 4 OG side in some versions. The White contributes almost no smell of its own but an extreme trichome coat; Chem 4 OG brings the diesel and the potency. It has no descendants on file. The name is entirely about the appearance.

About
Snowball is named for buds so frosted they look sugar-dipped.
It is Chem 4 OG crossed with The White, and The White is the parent behind the extreme trichome coat. The high lifts euphoric and tingly first, then settles into a deep relaxation. Menus claim up to 30 percent; the lab sample tests near 20.
Named for the frost.
What to Expect
Snowball opens with a euphoric, tingly lift, then eases into a deep body relaxation. Leafly's reviewers lead with relaxed at 73 percent of a solid sample, with a euphoric quality at 57 and happiness and a tingly note behind. It is not as sleepy as the potency suggests.
The reviewer negatives are low, dry mouth and dry eyes both near 5 to 10 percent, with a dizzy reading a little higher. A moderate dose is plenty for the number involved.
Flavor and Aroma
Snowball smells pungent and sour with a sharp diesel and chemical edge over citrus. The recorded flavor is earthier: earthy and spicy with a sour note. The Chem 4 OG side drives the fuel-and-chemical character.
Terpenes Explained
Snowball has no measured terpene data, with only Camphene, Caryophyllene and Limonene named.
Nothing is quantified, so the sour-diesel-chemical smell is a nose call. Chem-family strains carry that fuel note through volatile compounds a terpene panel does not print. A jar with a genuinely sharp diesel bite is the well-grown one.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Snowball THC is claimed from about 26 to 30 percent on menus, but the lab-measured sample in our data is near 20. It tests strong without hitting the claim. CBD is a trace.
Snowball tests around 20 percent despite 26-to-30 percent menu numbers, so plan for a strong strain, not an extreme one.
