Melonade Runtz is the crème de la crème of modern cannabis genetics. This US cross was made from a Cannabis Cup-winning Lemon Z genetic, Lemon Tree and the well-known Runtz genetic. Very aromatic and delicious!
Melonade Runtz was created by crossing a Melonade mother (Lemon Z x Lemon Tree) and a Runtz father (from an “inverted” mother). The genetics of Dutch Passion Melonade are based on the legendary and award-winning Lemon Z (also known as Lemon Zkittle by Dutch Passion), with which Dutch Passion won both the sativa category and the overall best strain at the Highlife Cup 2018.
This award-winning phenotype was in turn crossed with an elite Lemon Tree clone. By crossing this potent and fruity melonade with the well-known Runtz genetics (Zkittlez x Gelato), a beautiful USA hybrid has been created that can compete with the very best current cannabis genetics.
The Runtz genetics add a whole new dimension to this strain's terpene profile, with a strong penetrating scent and sophisticated flavor. There is something for every grower in this “4-way cross” due to the diverse genetics. A match made in heaven! Don't wait any longer and try her now!
The growth of Melonade Runtz
Melonade Runtz is a stable and fast-flowering photoperiod cannabis strain with strong branches and a compact plant and flower structure. The average flowering time when grown indoors is between 9 and 10 weeks from the time the 12/12 light cycle is set.
It guarantees top-quality harvests. The buds of this strain are compact, full of trichomes and have a delicious pungent terpene profile. In addition, it is suitable for every type of grower, including beginners.
The buds are super sticky and look sensational. The appearance is what you would expect from a high-quality new US strain, bred from the well-known Zkittlez and Cookie lines. This is a strain for lovers of strong flavors and strong cannabis. The high THC content ensures a powerful high with a strong and long-lasting effect.
Melonade Runtz is a vigorous and stable feminized cannabis strain. It is easy to grow, making it appealing to both beginners and experienced growers. Due to its relatively short flowering time, you won't have to wait long for the harvest. And when it's time to harvest, you'll be thrilled with the high quality of the buds.
This is truly a beautiful-looking, must-have commercial cannabis strain. The buds have that coveted Cali weed look: nicely round, compact, full of trichomes and with a pungent aroma that can often still be smelled through the bag!
Apart from its top quality, Melonade Runtz is an easy plant to cultivate indoors. It grows relatively compactly with a controllable stretch that never gets unruly. The sturdy and strong branches ensure that it can easily stand upright and is very resilient.
Most plants grow best in a natural way or in a SOG culture. This can usually be done without the use of complicated growing techniques/products. However, during the late flowering phase, the buds of some phenotypes become so compact and heavy that it is recommended to support the buds a little with sticks, rope or netting.
In general, this strain has an average flowering time of about 9–10 weeks. Melonade Runtz is a high-yielding, medium-sized plant. The plant has strong, firm branches with a compact flower structure. Even if the buds don't close completely (when the buds fuse together), you'll find that they can support quite a bit of weight.
When grown outdoors, the plants flower more slowly because the light cycle slows down from the growing phase to the flowering phase. This means that the plants are prepared for flowering in a more natural and leisurely way. Indoors, this happens quite abruptly.
Outdoors, there is a pre-flowering period, which means that they mature faster later on. In a temperate climate in the northern hemisphere, it is ready for harvest between the beginning and end of October, depending on the climatic conditions at the growing location. It grows best outdoors in a dry and sunny climate.
Melonade Runtz has an average ripening time and a high yield. Most stretching occurs in the first two weeks of flowering, with slightly less stretching in the third week. These are plants with a relatively compact structure and average height. Very suitable for growers looking for an easily controllable cannabis strain.
Melonade Runtz has a high yield, enabling harvests of around 400-450 grams/m² when grown indoors. Outdoors or as a single plant indoors with a very long pre-growth period, a yield of around 500 grams is possible. Very experienced growers can achieve even higher yields with the right products and growing methods.
The effect of Melonade Runtz
The effect of Melonade Runtz is powerful. The high potency ensures a strong, narcotic high that is also very suitable for experienced (medical) users. Melonade Runtz is a potent and powerful cannabis strain. Due to its high THC content, this strain falls into Dutch Passion's special and praised category of extremely high THC. This means that the THC content is on average between 20 and 25%, but in some cases it is higher and with the right phenotype (and in a fully controlled and perfected climate) it can even reach just over 25% THC.
The high is more suitable for experienced smokers with a high tolerance. Beginners are advised to consume this strain in low doses, as it can sometimes be too strong/overwhelming for beginners.
However, this also makes it very suitable for medical users who are looking for a photoperiodic cannabis strain with high THC levels, a narcotic high and an excellent flavor profile. The effect is a hybrid effect with both physical and mental effects, which is more of a “couch high” than a clear “head high”.
Smell and taste of Melonade Runtz
Melonade Runtz has a pungent aroma and a sophisticated taste. The scent is a colorful blend of lemon/tropical fruits, as well as creamy and doughy notes. The taste is mostly tart and tropical, but there are also phenotypes that are a bit creamier and sweeter.
Melonade Runtz is a strong-smelling and tasty photoperiod cannabis strain available as a feminized seed. This USA cross belongs to the crème de la crème of current cannabis genetics. Through careful selection and crossing, a powerful hybrid has been created that provides a true taste explosion.
The aroma is very pungent and usually resembles a fruity, slightly tart “Zkittle”. Combined with the rather creamy and gelato-like notes, it creates a delicious flavor. However, the tropical fruit character predominates in this photoperiod cross.
