Money Maker Feminized Seeds by Strain Hunters – Indica-Dominant Hybrid with Earthy-Skunk Flavor

Money Maker feminized seeds by Strain Hunters give you a powerful, relaxing indica-dominant hybrid that delivers deep calm and a nostalgic old-school cannabis experience with every harvest.

Worried your grow won’t live up to the legendary names in its genetics?

It’s tough when you invest in a strain named after Master Kush, Hindu Kush, and Skunk #1, only to end up with weak flavor, spindly plants, or inconsistent results. You want that rich, earthy punch and knockout body buzz—but what if your seeds don’t perform?

That fear keeps many from trying true heritage strains. They stick to flashy new crosses, missing out on the depth and reliability of the classics. But Money Maker was bred to bring those golden-era genetics into the modern grow room—without the guesswork.

With these feminized seeds, you’re not just planting cannabis—you’re growing confidence. From the first sprout to final cure, Money Maker proves that old-school doesn’t mean outdated. It means tested, trusted, and built to thrive.

What to Expect in Your First Few Grows

At first, Money Maker may surprise you with its slow start and moderate stretch—some phenotypes take their time, especially in early flowering. Don’t panic if it doesn’t explode out of the gate. This strain builds momentum, developing dense, resinous colas with a sharp kush and sweet berry aroma that intensifies as it matures. Expect a flowering time closer to 10 weeks than 8, but the wait pays off in weight and potency.

Early harvests often show a range of phenotypes—some purple-hued and compact, others taller with spear-shaped buds. This variability is part of its charm, but also a reminder: consistency comes with experience. Pay attention to how your plants respond to light, nutrients, and training, and you’ll start recognizing which traits thrive in your setup.

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

• Assuming it’s a fast 8-week finish—adjust your expectations and let it fully mature for maximum resin.
• Overlooking support needs—use nets or stakes early, as heavy colas can bend under their own weight.
• Pruning too aggressively—this strain prefers gentle training; stick to LST over topping.
• Underestimating its smell—its skunky, earthy aroma can be strong; consider a carbon filter like Abbaton for discretion.
• Using high-nitrogen feeds late into flowering—switch to bloom-focused nutrients such as HESI Hydro Bloom to boost resin and density.

How to Fine-Tune for Your Perfect Harvest

1. Start with a stable environment: 22–26 °C and 50–60% humidity during veg.
2. Use a well-aerated soil or coco mix—consider 1 Component Soil Grow for balanced structure.
3. Apply light LST early to open up the canopy and improve light penetration.
4. Monitor trichome development—harvest when mostly milky with some amber for full body effects.
5. Flush 7–10 days before harvest to ensure a smooth, clean smoke.
6. Dry slowly at 18–20 °C and 55–60% RH, then cure for 3–4 weeks.
7. Take notes on phenotype expression to select seeds for future grows.

How to grow Money Maker feminized seeds

Quick overview: feminized indica-dominant hybrid from Strain Hunters, flowering in 9–11 weeks, low to medium difficulty, ideal for indoor or outdoor grows in stable climates.

Safe start

Germinate seeds in a moist, dark environment at 22–25 °C.

• Use starter cubes or direct soil for reliable germination.
• Keep humidity high (70%) until first true leaves appear.
• Transplant gently when roots are 1–2 cm long.
• Consider GreenFuse Grow to strengthen early root development.

Directed growth

Establish a strong, bushy structure during veg with proper light and training.

• Provide 18 hours of light daily (18/6) during vegetative stage.
• Use LST to spread the canopy and maximize light exposure.
• Choose pots of 11–18 L for optimal root development.
• Feed with balanced nutrients—avoid excess nitrogen.
• Ensure good airflow to prevent humidity buildup.

Flowering care

Switch to 12/12 light cycle and support heavy bud development.

• Initiate flowering with 12 hours of darkness daily.
• Install support nets early—colas get dense and heavy.
• Reduce humidity to 40–50% to prevent mold.
• Switch to bloom nutrients like HESI Hydro Bloom for resin production.
• Monitor trichomes weekly from week 8 onward.

Harvest and cure

Maximize flavor and effect with proper post-harvest handling.

• Flush plants 7–10 days before harvest to clear excess nutrients.
• Harvest when trichomes are mostly milky with some amber.
• Cut branches and trim sugar leaves before drying.
• Dry at 18–20 °C and 55–60% RH for 10–14 days.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I first grew Money Maker back when Franco Loja was still active—what a legend. I’ll admit, my first attempt was rough: I treated it like a modern fast-flowering strain and harvested too early. The buds were tight but lacked that full kush punch I was after.

The game-changer? Letting it go longer—two extra weeks made all the difference. I also started using LST instead of topping, which suited its lanky structure better. Now, it’s one of my go-to strains for autumn outdoor grows. The smell when you open the jar? Pure nostalgia—like walking into an old Amsterdam coffeeshop. If you respect its pace, Money Maker rewards you with something truly timeless.
