In the flavor, menthol prevails but with sweet notes reminiscent of some types of pastries, but it must be treated with great respect because its potency may be too high for some consumers.

🔥 Frequently asked questions
How do you make a new variety of marijuana?
There are different ways to create a new variety, but the simplest is to cross 2 different genetics and stabilize the result through inbred crosses. If you want a new authentic variety from scratch, it is best to start with landrace strains, since in addition to being original, they usually transmit their best genes very well. In recent years we have seen new varieties based on other works, such as feminized, autoflowering versions, or versions rich in CBD and other minority cannabinoids. In these cases, it is enough to take an elite clone and introduce new genes through backcrossing techniques.
Where to buy seeds of a new cannabis strain?
Some of these new strains are only available as cuttings, and some dispensaries and clone nurseries in the US offer them, but the problem is that we can never be sure of their authenticity because we already know how many of these companies operate. At Pevgrow we have feminized and regular seeds of some of the varieties in this ranking, offered by different trusted banks, and some of them already have good reviews from growers who have tried them.
