FEATURED CANNABIS STRAIN
Toad Venom
Toad Venom arrived with the kind of name that sounds like marketing excess, yet the flower itself is unusually easy to remember. Crack open a properly cured jar and the first impression can shift from sharp lime peel to rubbery fuel, pepper, mint, and dense cookie dough within seconds…

- UK Riot
UK Riot is built around contrast. One side of the flower can smell bright enough to resemble sweet citrus peel and creamy Gelato, while another layer brings dense candy, earth, funk, and unmistakable fuel. Compound Genetics created that combination by pollinating London Jealousy with… Read more: UK Riot - Candy Bezels
Candy Bezels approaches modern cannabis from two directions at once. One side is unmistakably old-school: fuel, damp earth, kush-like herbs, and a cooling mint quality that can recall the sharper gas strains of an earlier generation. The other side is thoroughly contemporary, adding candy… Read more: Candy Bezels - Inside Joke
Some marijuana strains reveal exactly what they are the moment the jar opens, but Inside Joke is more unpredictable. One plant may fill the room with artificial banana candy and gasoline, while another can push toward herbs, peppery spice, sweet earth, or a darker… Read more: Inside Joke - NYC Vapor
NYC Vapor takes one of the most recognizable aromas in old-school cannabis—the sharp grapefruit-and-fuel character of NYC Diesel—and pushes it through the dense resin, candy gas, and modern potency of Jokerz #31. The result is less like a softened reinterpretation of Diesel and more… Read more: NYC Vapor - Strawberry Skrilla
Strawberry Skrilla looks almost engineered for the modern connoisseur market: pale green and purple flowers, soft orange pistils, burgundy foliage, dense frost, and an aroma that lands somewhere between strawberry candy and sweet gasoline. Yet the strain is more than visual theater. Compound Genetics… Read more: Strawberry Skrilla - Ceres Skunk
Ceres Skunk comes from a time when the word “Skunk” described a recognizable type of marijuana rather than simply strong-smelling weed. The plant grows with the efficiency that made Skunk genetics essential to early indoor cultivation: medium height, substantial flower production, relatively rapid maturation,… Read more: Ceres Skunk - Ceres Kush
Ceres Kush belongs to the older tradition of Kush cannabis, where quality was judged by resin, flower density, physical effects, and the deep aroma of hash rather than candy sweetness or elaborate hybrid names. The plant grows low and broad, develops compact clusters of… Read more: Ceres Kush - CBN Sleep Aid Shows Signs of THC-Like Dependence in New Cannabis Study
Cannabinol, better known as CBN, has rapidly become one of the medicinal cannabis industry’s most popular ingredients for nighttime gummies, tinctures and capsules. Frequently marketed as the “sleepy cannabinoid,” CBN is often positioned as a gentler alternative to THC for consumers who want help… Read more: CBN Sleep Aid Shows Signs of THC-Like Dependence in New Cannabis Study - How to Make Ice Water Hash Rosin: From Trichomes to Solventless Concentrate
Ice water hash rosin sits near the top of the modern solventless cannabis extract market because it combines two mechanical separation techniques into one highly refined concentrate. First, cold water and filtration are used to separate resin glands from cannabis flower, producing ice water… Read more: How to Make Ice Water Hash Rosin: From Trichomes to Solventless Concentrate - Zenta
Zenta is one of the rare cannabis strains whose name carries nearly as much cultural history as its genetics. Developed through John Sinclair Seeds in collaboration with Ceres Seeds, the cultivar was released in 2017 as a tribute to the countercultural concept of Zenta… Read more: Zenta - White Panther
White Panther comes from an era when “white” cannabis referred to the extraordinary layer of resin covering mature flowers rather than a marketing category applied to dozens of unrelated hybrids. Compact plants develop thick, pale-looking colas whose trichomes can make the buds appear dusted… Read more: White Panther - Viper
Viper comes from a period of cannabis breeding when the word “sativa” still implied tall plants, old regional genetics, expansive cerebral effects, and aromas that had little in common with cake frosting or candy. Reeferman Seeds built the cultivar from an elite Blackseed mother… Read more: Viper - Lemonesia
Lemonesia belongs to a different school of citrus cannabis than the sweet lemon-candy hybrids that dominate many modern menus. Its aroma is sharper and greener, combining fresh lemon peel with pine resin, sour herbs, flowers, and a faint diesel edge that becomes more obvious… Read more: Lemonesia - Fruity Thai
Fruity Thai was bred to solve an old cultivation problem: how do you preserve the clear, exotic personality of Thai cannabis without requiring the towering plants and marathon flowering cycles traditionally associated with Southeast Asian sativas? Ceres Seeds approached the question by crossing selected… Read more: Fruity Thai - DEA Opens Federal Registration for Medical Marijuana Manufacturers, Distributors and Testing Labs
The Drug Enforcement Administration has opened a new federal registration pathway for state-licensed medical marijuana manufacturers, distributors and analytical laboratories, marking another major step in the government’s implementation of Schedule III rules for medical cannabis. The DEA’s Diversion Control Division activated the new application… Read more: DEA Opens Federal Registration for Medical Marijuana Manufacturers, Distributors and Testing Labs - 2020 Oregon Cannabis Cup: Strawberry Guava, Mimosa and the State’s First People’s Choice Competition
The 2020 Oregon High Times Cannabis Cup: People’s Choice Edition arrived during a year that forced both the cannabis industry and High Times to rethink how a major competition could operate. Oregon had hosted its first official High Times Cannabis Cup only one year… Read more: 2020 Oregon Cannabis Cup: Strawberry Guava, Mimosa and the State’s First People’s Choice Competition - 2020 Illinois Cannabis Cup: Revolution Cannabis Sweeps the First People’s Choice Cup in the Prairie State
The 2020 Illinois High Times Cannabis Cup: People’s Choice Edition arrived at almost the exact moment Illinois cannabis entered a new era. Adult-use sales had begun on January 1, 2020, only months before the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted public gatherings across the United States. Under… Read more: 2020 Illinois Cannabis Cup: Revolution Cannabis Sweeps the First People’s Choice Cup in the Prairie State - How to Know When Indoor Cannabis Plants Are Mature and Approaching Harvest
Knowing when an indoor cannabis plant has reached maturity is more complicated than counting days on a calendar. Seed catalogs, breeder descriptions, and cultivation references often give approximate flowering periods, but those estimates are only starting points. Genetics, phenotype, environmental conditions, plant health, lighting… Read more: How to Know When Indoor Cannabis Plants Are Mature and Approaching Harvest - Black Kush
Black Kush is a name that has been attached to several unrelated cannabis strains over the years, but the version covered here is the documented release from The Cali Connection. Its identity comes from a pairing of the breeder’s Girl Scout Cookies genetics with… Read more: Black Kush - Clementine Slush
Imagine cutting into a perfectly ripe clementine while a jar of old-school Kush sits open nearby, and the unusual character of Clementine Slush begins to make sense. Rather than pursuing the candy-heavy direction common to many modern marijuana hybrids, this strain puts bright citrus… Read more: Clementine Slush
