Frosted Cherry’Os: The Frostiest Autoflower You’ll Ever Grow
When Frosted Cherry’Os first dropped, it caught fire among the Speedrun community and quickly became a fan favorite.
This beautiful cannabis plant came from an extensive 25,000 plant pheno hunt, standing out in Speedrun’s selection and one of the top autoflower seeds for Leafly 2023! Speedrun Seeds keeps bringing the autoflowering fire with winners and keepers added to their roster.
Autoflower Symphony of Sweet Funk
The best way to describe Forsted Cherry0’s is a sweet candy-forward nose with burnt rubber and black pepper on the back end. Some of the phenos also bring funky, cheesy, and savory notes.
“Frosted Cherry’Os has a fruity, gassy profile. We were working on bringing up the fruitiness, and we succeeded. It has a nice structure, and you get this delightful fruity-gassy aroma, almost like a cross between fruit and a more ‘dank’ smell."
When you taste Frosted Cherry'Os, you will taste a mix of sour cherry, candy, and fuel. The smell of the flowers translates perfectly over to the taste and goes to show their relentless dedication to bringing quality genetics to the market.
Relaxation Without the Knock-Out
If there were such a thing as lucid relaxation embodied in a flower, Frosted Cherry’Os would be that:
"Frosted Cherry’Os has a nice, balanced effect, fruity and smooth. It’s definitely potent but not overwhelming. You’ll get a good mix of euphoria and relaxation, making it great for day or evening use."
As Ben points out, this cultivar can be used at any point in the day, given that it sends an even keel wave of chill through your mind and body. Another measure of their pinpoint accuracy in the selection process. Hunting for balanced hybrids that provide relaxation without that heavy indica couchlock associated with an indicas.
Selected for Insane Frostiness, Flavor, and Perfect Structure
Most F2s seeds tend to have a great deal of genetic variance, and with Frosted Cherry’Os F3, Speedrun preserved all the best traits of its former generation with added stability. The F2 generation went through a lot of stress testing to see what phenotypes shined, selecting only the fittest plants with the most complex and unique terpene profiles.
The scope of their selections also focused on plant structure and yield potential: "The goal is to create plants that are resilient, high-yielding, and have unique terpene profiles. We’ve developed a system for tracking phenotypes and maintaining a pollen library so we can fine-tune traits and bring out the best qualities in every generation."
With beginner home growers in mind, the team at Speedrun is always looking to release cannabis plants that produce an even canopy and yield large with ease.
“We've done a lot of work to remove apical dominance, the Christmas tree-like shape, from our strains, creating higher yielding plants."
Low-Stress Training Autoflower Superstar
Growing a cannabis plant like Frosted Cherry’Os is in the definition of simplicity.. You have a plant that wants to work hard but doesn’t need too much. Frosted Cherry’Os is the perfect strain to low-stress train (LST).
Frosted Cherry O's F3 autoflower seeds
Frosted Cherry O's F3 was added to Speedrun Seeds strain line-up after winning their 25,000 plant 2022 outdoor auto pheno hunt. Very soon after, it was mentioned in Leafly as one of the top Autoflower Seeds for winter 2022! Frosted Cherry O’s was originally bred for its INSANE frostiness and the enormous lime green flowers it packs on.
"I would say Frosted Cherry’Os is like a strain that really loves low-stress training... if you're just learning low-stress training, or you're looking for a plant that's going to respond really well, then Frosted Cherry’Os is your cultivar."
