About These Strains

Big Bud

Indica 85/15 — THC 23–26%

Big Bud is an indica dominant hybrid (85% indica/15% sativa) strain that was the overall winner of the 1989 High Times Cannabis Cup. This strain was named for its enormously oversized buds and huge yields for growers, as well as its intensely high THC level ranging from 23-26%.

Although the original Big Bud strain was a cross between the insanely popular Afghani X Skunk #1 strains, it has since then been rebred and bred with other strains to create different effects and potencies.

Blueberry Muffin

Indica 70/30 — THC 16–19% — CBD 1–1%

Blueberry Muffin, also known as the plural “Blueberry Muffins,” is a tasty indica dominant hybrid strain created through crossing the infamous Purple Panty Dropper with the addictive Blueberry strain. The result is a bud that packs lifting effects and an insanely delicious flavor that is said to be just like a fresh blueberry muffin!

The smell isn't something to sneeze at either – Blueberry Muffin has a rich frosty aroma of fresh berries and earth with a touch of nutty vanilla that becomes slightly pungent as the nugs are burned.
