Flavor and Aroma: Sweet Candy-Grape-Gas
Grape Runtz combines the candy sweetness of the legendary Runtz cut with the fruity, rich notes of Grape Fanta. This fusion brings forward an innovative “Grape Candy Gas” profile unique to this strain from Certified Seeds. Imagine juicy grape goodness and sweet Zkittlez terps colliding in a swirl of creamy Gelato. As flowers mature, their colors shift into deep purples, almost black in some phenos, giving this strain the bag appeal we all want.
“I love this perfect mix of the two because that's a new, unique thing; where the candy from the Runtz meets the grape on the back end.”
Effects: Smooth Relaxing Head Buzz
Grape Runtz is a cornucopia for the senses; it’s sought after for its balanced effects. With lineage tracing back to Grape Octane, Gelato, and Zkittlez, expect a smooth, uplifting head high that settles nicely into a calming body buzz. Many phenotypes carry that signature Runtz calming euphoria, energizing enough to set you up for creative tasks or social settings yet gentle and soothing for end-of-day relaxation. You might feel more of that “head buzz” in your brain before it settles into a cozy afterglow perfect for relaxing after a long day.
Growing Grape Runtz at Home
Growers will find Grape Runtz easy to manage in most setups, but be ready with trellises or stakes. The Runtz lineage can result in lanky, vine-like branches that need extra support during flowering. Fortunately, the Grape Fanta genetics lend the beautiful structure helping balance out this trait. This is one of the reasons Certified Seeds crossed it in the first place, making it accessible to novice growers. And if that wasn't enough, Grape Runtz stands out as a great “dumper” for hash production. The amount and shape of the trichomes covering the buds make it a prime candidate for extract enthusiasts who can harvest as early as seven weeks. To harvest cannabis buds this plant will finish in 8 or 9 weeks of flower.
“You won’t have to wait 10 weeks for it to finish. Plus, if you’re making hash, you can take it even earlier.”
