Melonade Runtz Feminized Seeds (Dutch Passion)

Melonade Runtz is a strong-smelling and great-tasting photoperiod cannabis strain available in feminised seeds. This USA crossing belongs to the crème de la crème of contemporary cannabis genetics. Careful selection and crossing have created a powerful hybrid that provides a true flavour explosion. The aroma is very pungent and usually resembles a fruity, slightly sour 'Zkittle'.

This combined with the more creamy and gelato-like notes create a delicious taste. However, the more tropical fruit character predominates in this photoperiod cross. The buds are super sticky and have fantastic bag appeal.

Melonade Runtz is a potent and strong cannabis strain. Due to her high THC level, this strain falls into the special and praised Dutch Passion seed category with extremely high THC levels. This means that the THC percentage will, on average, be between 20-25%.

Melonade Runtz was created by crossing a Melonade (Lemon Z x Lemon Tree) mother and a Runtz father (from a ‘reversed’ mother). The Dutch Passion Melonade genetics is a cross of the legendary and cup-winning Lemon Z (aka. Dutch Passion's Lemon Zkittle) with which we won both the Sativa category and the Overall Best Strain at the Highlife Cup in 2018.

This ‘cup-winning pheno' has in turn been crossed with an elite Lemon Tree clone. By crossing this potent and fruity Melonade with the well-known Runtz (Zkittlez x Gelato) genetics, a beautiful USA hybrid has been created that can compete with the very best contemporary cannabis genetics.

The Runtz genetics give the terpene profile of this strain a whole new dimension with a strong penetrating scent and refined taste. Due to the diverse genetics in this '4-way cross', there is something for every grower.
The high of Melonade Runtz is very potent and powerful. In addition to an extremely high THC level, she also has a fully-loaded terpene profile. Due to the researched and now well-known 'entourage effect', the high is expected to be further enhanced thanks to these terpenes. In combination this creates a powerful, narcotic effect. The high is more suitable for experienced smokers with a high tolerance.

We recommend that novice growers consume this strain in low doses, as it can sometimes be considered too powerful/overwhelming for beginners. However, this also makes her very suitable for medical users who are looking for a photoperiod cannabis strain with a high THC level, a narcotic high and at the same time an excellent taste profile.

The effect is a hybrid effect with both a physical and mental effect where it is slightly more towards a 'body-stoned' than a clear ‘head-high’.

Melonade Runtz has an average flowering time of approximately 9-10 weeks before the plants are ready to harvest. This applies indoors from the moment the clock/light is set to 12/12. The shorter days and the 12-hour dark period ensure that plants will flower immediately. This average flowering period applies to fully controlled grow rooms.

If you grow in less-than-optimal conditions, the flowering period can be delayed by 1 week to a maximum of 2 weeks. Outdoors, approximately the same flowering time applies, but when exactly bloom starts depends on the exact location/latitude where the plant is grown.

In an outdoor grow, the plants flower more slowly, because the light cycle runs more gradually from the growth phase to the flowering phase. This means that the plants are prepared to flower in a more natural and gradual way. Inside, this happens quite abruptly. Outside you have a period of pre-flowering, which means they ripen faster later.

In a temperate climate in the Northern Hemisphere she will be ready approximately between early and late October, depending on the climatic conditions of the growing location. She grows best outdoors in a dry and sunny climate.

Melonade Runtz has an average stretching period and a high yield. Most stretching takes place during the first 2 weeks of bloom with a slightly less vigorous stretch in the 3rd week. They are plants with a relatively compact growth structure and average height. Very suitable for growers who are looking for an easily controllable cannabis strain.

Melonade Runtz has a high yield, which allows harvests of approximately 400-450g m2 in an indoor grow. Outdoors, or as a single plant indoors with a very long pre-growth period, a yield of approximately 500g will be possible. Very experienced growers will be able to achieve even higher yields with the right products and growing methods.
