Zkittlez

Origin and genetics

Zkittlez brings together the best Indica and Sativa characteristics to offer the perfect, balanced high. This delicious hybrid is a child to the delicious Grapefruit and the renowned Grape Ape. A recipient of multiple awards, such as the 2016 Emerald Cup and the 2015 High Times Cannabis Cup, Zkittlez is a must-have strain for any proclaimed cannabis enthusiast.

Zkittlez is an Indica dominant strain (70-30), containing 20% THC, 1% CBG, and 1% CBD. Its parents have fruity names, so it's no surprise this hybrid has an exhilarating aroma and flavor profile. Dominant terpenes include Pinene, limonene, Terpinolene, Carene, and Cineol.

Flavor, aroma, and appearance

Consuming Zkittlez is a whole new fantastic experience. When combusted, the strain emits a strawberry, grape, and lemon scent with some berry undertones. The aroma fills up the rooms and keeps the consumer anticipating a puff. The flavor can be described as a unique mix of sweet, tropical, and fruity notes. This is the ultimate treat for anyone with a sweet tooth.

Growing

Cannabis cultivators love Zkittlez due to its ease of growing and its non-demanding nature. The plant can be grown indoors or outdoors and prefers a sunny, warm environment for optimum yields. Her resistance to biotic and abiotic factors is impressive, especially with molds and pests. However, rain and humidity can ruin your buds due to bud rot. Ensure the buds do not retain moisture by blowing them with a leaf blower early in the morning (to remove due) and every time it rains. Zkittlez flowers for 7-weeks and produces 350-409 grams/m² indoors and 450-500 grams per plant outdoors.

Effects

Despite being Indica dominant, Zkittlez offers a perfect mix of cerebral and body-centered effects. Consumers can expect a long-lasting, potent high providing focus, alertness, happiness, relaxation, and calmness. The strain can cause sedation, couch-lock, and sleepiness in high doses.

Medical benefits

Besides its recreational value, Zkittlez has numerous therapeutic applications. The strain is used to alleviate pain, inflammation, and a wide range of mental conditions. Patients can utilize this hybrid to combat insomnia, thanks to its sleep-inducing properties.
