Cosmic Glue
Cosmic Glue came from a period when the enormous resin production of Gorilla Glue #4 was inspiring breeders to test the famous clone against almost anything with an interesting flavor profile. Subcool and the team at Heroes of the Farm…

Space Bomb
Long before candy-flavored marijuana became a dominant breeding trend, Space Bomb was delivering an aroma that could shift from sour mango to overripe tropical fruit and almost fermented candy. The cultivar came from the breeding work of the late Subcool…
Space Cake
Space Cake arrived during a period when elite Cookies genetics were being crossed in nearly every imaginable direction, yet Bodhi Seeds approached the project differently from breeders interested only in making Girl Scout Cookies heavier or sweeter. By pairing the…
Titan OG
Titan OG is less a modern designer cross than a carefully preserved interpretation of what California OG cannabis is supposed to be. Long before dispensary menus became crowded with candy, sherbet, and dessert genetics, Northern Emeralds built its reputation around…
Hulkberry
Hulkberry approaches the familiar OG-and-Diesel formula from a more energetic direction. Rather than producing the slow, body-heavy experience commonly associated with powerful Kush marijuana, Royal Queen Seeds developed this cultivar to emphasize the soaring side of the famous OG Kush…
Inhaled Cannabis Linked to Fewer Premature Heartbeats in Surprising Randomized Heart Study
A new randomized clinical trial is challenging some assumptions about the immediate cardiovascular effects of cannabis. Researchers led by the University of California, San Francisco found that habitual cannabis users experienced approximately 9 percent fewer premature heartbeats on days when…
Cannabis-Derived NTI164 Improves Autism Symptoms in Randomized Pediatric Trial
A new randomized clinical trial is adding significant evidence to the debate over whether carefully standardized cannabis-derived medicines may have a role in treating symptoms associated with autism spectrum disorder. Published in Neurotherapeutics, the Phase II/III Harmony Study tested NTI164,…
Purple Cookies
Purple Cookies is a useful example of why strain names should never be used as substitutes for pedigrees. The name is sometimes attached to Granddaddy Purple and Girl Scout Cookies crosses, yet the version documented by California breeder Purple Caper…
Chem Scout
Chem Scout sits at the intersection of two eras of American cannabis. One parent represents the raw, fuel-soaked Chemdog genetics that shaped the East Coast marijuana scene; the other comes from the sweet, dense Cookies family that helped define California…
Chem 4
Few marijuana strains come with a history as strange—or as influential—as Chem 4. It was not designed on paper by pairing two named cultivars, nor was it released through a conventional seed company with a neat pedigree printed on the…
Cherry Limeade
Cherry Limeade predates much of today’s rush toward candy-named marijuana strains, yet its terpene profile could easily compete with modern fruit-focused genetics. Created in Northern California by respected breeder Mean Gene from Mendocino, the cultivar brings together Cherry Pie and…
Peach Rings
Some marijuana strains acquire candy-inspired names as a convenient description after the fact. Peach Rings has a stronger claim to its name. Properly cultivated flower can develop an unusually convincing mixture of ripe stone fruit, sugary candy, tart citrus, and…
