Created Strains
Captain Krypt OG
**Captain Krypt OG** is a potent hybrid strain developed by Emerald Triangle Seeds, known for its powerful effects and complex terpene profile. This strain is a cross between **Captain Kush** and **Kryptonite OG**, inheriting the best traits from both legendary parents. **Genetics & Appearance:** With 60% indica and 40% sativa genetics, Captain Krypt OG produces dense, resin-coated buds with vibrant orange pistils against a backdrop of deep green and purple foliage. The trichome coverage is exceptional, giving the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at its potency. **Effects & Medical Benefits:** The high THC content (typically 22-26%) delivers a powerful, full-body relaxation that's complemented by a cerebral euphoria. Users report an initial wave of happiness and mental uplift, followed by deep physical relaxation that can lead to sedation. This makes it particularly effective for evening or nighttime use. Medically, it's valued for its ability to alleviate chronic pain, reduce anxiety and stress, combat insomnia, and stimulate appetite. **Cultivation Notes:** This strain requires moderate growing experience and performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments. Plants respond well to training techniques like SCROG or LST to maximize yield. The flowering period of approximately 9 weeks rewards growers with substantial yields of high-quality buds. **Terpene Profile:** The dominant myrcene contributes to the sedative, relaxing effects, while caryophyllene adds pain-relieving properties and limonene provides mood elevation. The flavor profile combines earthy pine notes with subtle citrus undertones and a spicy finish.
Purple Mendocino
**Purple Mendocino** is a classic indica-dominant hybrid originating from California's famed Emerald Triangle region. This strain is celebrated for its stunning visual appeal, featuring deep purple and violet hues that develop in cooler temperatures, complemented by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of frosty trichomes. Genetically, it's believed to be a cross between **Mendocino Purps** and another potent indica, resulting in an 80/20 indica/sativa ratio. The effects are profoundly relaxing and sedative, making it an excellent choice for evening use. Users typically experience a wave of cerebral euphoria that quickly melts into full-body relaxation, often leading to "couch-lock" and eventual sleep. This makes it particularly effective for treating insomnia, chronic pain, and muscle tension. The terpene profile is dominated by **myrcene**, contributing to its earthy, herbal base, with secondary notes of **caryophyllene** (spicy) and **pinene** (pine). This translates to a flavor and aroma profile of sweet berries, fresh earth, and a subtle skunky undertone. The smoke is smooth and expansive, with a flavor that lingers pleasantly on the palate. Cultivation requires some experience, as the plant can be sensitive to environmental stressors like temperature fluctuations. However, it rewards the grower with dense, resinous buds and those signature purple colors when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures during the flowering phase.
Oz Kush
**Oz Kush** is a potent hybrid strain that masterfully blends the legendary genetics of OG Kush with the Australian powerhouse, Oz. This 60% Indica / 40% Sativa cross delivers a powerful, full-bodied experience that is both deeply relaxing and cerebrally uplifting. **Genetics & Lineage:** A cross between **OG Kush** and an Australian landrace strain simply known as **Oz**. This combination brings together OG Kush's iconic structure, resin production, and complex terpene profile with the robust growth patterns and unique effects of its Australian counterpart. **Appearance & Structure:** The buds are typically dense, chunky, and forest green, often adorned with vibrant orange pistils and a thick, frosty coating of milky-white trichomes. The plant structure favors its Indica dominance, producing strong, branching colas. **Effects & Experience:** The high begins with a swift cerebral rush of euphoria and mental clarity, courtesy of its Sativa heritage. This initial uplift smoothly transitions into a profound, heavy-bodied relaxation that melts away tension without causing complete sedation for most users. It's renowned for its **"couch-lock" potential** at higher doses, making it an excellent choice for evening use. **Medical Applications:** Highly valued by medical patients for its efficacy in managing **chronic pain, stress, anxiety, and insomnia**. Its notable appetite-stimulating properties ("the munchies") can also benefit those suffering from lack of appetite. **Cultivation Notes:** A rewarding strain for growers with some experience. It prefers a stable environment and responds well to training techniques like topping and LST to manage its bushy growth and maximize yield. It is resistant to most common molds and pests. When grown optimally, it produces a **high yield** of top-shelf flowers after an **8-week flowering period**.
Tutti Frutti
**Tutti Frutti** is a sativa-dominant hybrid (60% sativa/40% indica) celebrated for its exceptionally vibrant and fruity flavor profile, reminiscent of a tropical fruit salad. Bred by Emerald Triangle Seeds, it's a cross of **Sweet Tooth #3** and **Purple Urkle**, inheriting the best traits from both parents. **Effects & Experience:** The high begins with a cerebral, uplifting, and euphoric sativa rush that sparks creativity and sociability. This gradually mellows into a gentle, relaxing body stone that soothes without heavy sedation, making it excellent for daytime or early evening use. It's particularly favored for mood enhancement and combating stress. **Cultivation:** Plants are of average height with a flowering time of about 8 weeks. They produce dense, resinous buds with stunning purple and green hues, often showing vibrant orange pistils. While it requires some attention to nutrient levels and climate control to maximize its terpene expression, it rewards the grower with a high yield of top-quality, aromatic flowers. **Key Terpenes & Profile:** Dominated by **myrcene** (contributing to its relaxing edge), with strong support from **limonene** (citrus, mood) and **caryophyllene** (spice, wellness). The flavor is a complex mix of berries, sweet tropical fruits, and a subtle earthy undertone.
