It’s Sunday Funday! Today is a great day to treat yourself to some exotic cannabis strains. With the ongoing quarantine and biggest civil right movement in history, as well as Pride weekend, there’s a lot going on. Depending on how active or inactive you are during these times, cannabis might be the perfect medicine to get you in gear or keep fueling your fire.
Along the West Coast, exotic cannabis strains are the talk of the town. There are many factors that go into defining a strain as “exotic,” that we’ve gone into detail on in the past. The look, smell, style of cultivation, and cure method are all important in the overall analysis of a strain’s quality. We’ve put together a couple exotic cannabis strains from Washington, Oregon, and California that might set your Sunday Funday off in the right direction.
Washington
Candy Rain by Secret Gardens
London Pound Cake and Gelato are two of the most popular exotic cannabis strains on the West Coast right now. It makes sense then that their offspring, the Candy Rain strain, has found its own spotlight. Bringing together kushy earth aromas with sweet doughy flavors, this strain might put you in pure bliss. Secret Gardens has been known to produce limited runs of this strain that are gorgeous shades of purple and orange and appear dipped in trichomes.
Candyland Cookies by Sweetwater Farms
The Candyland Cookies strain is the potent love-child of Granddaddy Purps and Bay Platinum Cookies. An Earthy musk with a hint of sugar prevails over this relaxing strain from the minute you open the bag. Back in 2017, Treehawk Farms was the only one in Washington cultivating this strain. These days, you can find a gassy cut of it from Sweetwater Farms.
Oregon
Gelato by Million Elephants
Everyone knows Gelato. Starting in California, then working its way up the West Coast, it’s become a staple. The cultivar comes from breeding the Sunset Sherbet with Thin Mint GSC. This exotic hitter comes with thick nugs showing off beautiful purple and green coloration. Cookie-dough and diesel blend together to create an intoxicating aroma. Million Elephants is serving up Oregon a standout pheno of Gelato that would please any cannasseur.
Sundae Driver by Phresh Cannabis
The Sundae Driver strain is one of the most currently popular exotic cannabis strains. It came into existence by breeding Fruity Pebbles OG with Grape Pie. Fruity, creamy, cereal-milk smelling nugs will put a smile on your face. In Oregon, Phresh Cannabis is known for cultivating commendable weed. Their Sundae Driver stands tall next to its initial cultivators, Jungle Boys, in California.
California
Pink Runtz by The Fire Society
The Runtz family has become nearly as popular for genetic crosses as Gelato and GSC. Some believe this strain is another pheno of the Runtz that crosses Gelato with Zkittlez. Others claim it’s not a Gelato cross at all, rather combining Pink Panties with Rainbow Sherbet. Either way, it’s one of the most floral, fruity, and gassy strains you’re likely to come across these days. In California, The Fire Society has a prime cut of the Pink Runtz strain that will rocket you into stoney elation.
Samoas by Top-Shelf Cultivation
There are a lot of exotic cannabis strains that come from a GSC cross. The Samoas strain is no different, bringing Forum Cookies together with Face Off OG. This flavorful cultivar shows off a lot of the high octane gas of an OG cut, along with the essential Cookies flavors.
