September 17th - Secret Handshake - That sweet sweet gas.

Kush is one of my all time favorite types of cannabis. From the rich piney rubber aromas to the sweet citrusy gas variants, this plant family consistently delivers some of my absolute favorite combinations of flavors and highs. the same could be said for chem! In fact, I like chem even more! It has been my goal to find a hybrid within these families that just.. Speaks to me. This is an update on our progress on that front. Plus a few more updates.

In April of 2024 we decided to explore some of the offerings from People Under the Stairs Genetics. Chefro has been doing very good work for a long time, and many in the community whom I respect had very positive things to say about his seeds. We hunted the following three lines:

Triangle Kush x Zchem

Original Diesel x Zchem

Sour Saunders/Karma Sour BX2 x Karma Sour Bx2

So.. The Zchem male’s genetic lineage is: Zkittlez x Chem 4/Chem IBL. I chose to hunt this specific male because of the potential for some decent kush dominance. Typically, or at least in my experience, kush x chem combinations will almost always result in overly dominant chem traits. But.. I was hoping that with the addition of Zkittlez as a recessive parent, and with Chefro’s male selection leaning towards Z, we would be hunting a male that would be much less dominant than what I have seen in the past. Maybe something would finally play nice with Kush when hybridized!

Turns out, it worked! Mostly. The flower we tested from that seed run was quite phenomenal. The keeper pheno, number 3, was the best combination of kush/z with a nice sweet windex note from the Chem 4. The smoke was delightfully gassy, sweet, fruity, with a cool background of a berry windex. All of who tried her knew she was the keeper. I decided to just steal a name from the game Destiny, called this cut Secret Handshake.

Now you see, I said mostly. Seed runs are usually pretty easy since the plants start out with a main tap root and excellent root development. They basically grow themselves! But replicating the initial seed expressions for successive clone runs proved to be a challenge. Some runs would end up heavier in chem which masked the kush. Some runs would have more fruit. Sometimes the run parameters leading to nice flavor expressions caused combustion issues. Eventually through some trial and error, we honed in on what we think is the ideal expression from this cut.

This run is a gas lovers dream. The flower smokes with an incredibly sweet, smooth, vapor and oil heavy gas note from the beginning of the joint to the end. You will also find undertones of citrus/windex, berry, and maybe a teeny bit of chem at the every end. The high is uplifting, heady, allows for some nice daytime functionality.. But I find that it also makes me incredibly stupid. One of those highs where you don’t realize how useless you are until you put the potato chips into the fridge.

We are dropping this flower at various medical storefronts throughout the state. It is very small batch, limited run, three stores maximum.

Secret Handshake FLOWER - Drop lineup for the week of September 15th:

Herbal Remedies Gorham

Rock Steady Remedies Bangor

Week of the 22nd:

Grove Cannabis Co - South Berwick

Coming Soon…

New runs of 1 gram Cartridges! Over the last 6 months our resin quality has improved dramatically. Flower buyers will see the results of quality increases immediately, but concentrates like rosin and BHO can take an extra few months. This is because it takes us time to build up enough material for single strain live resin runs, and processing with Oasis always takes a while. But.. Its just about that time!

The Juice - Restock

• Huge terp fraction on this run, must have been 40% terp by volume. These should be absolutely delightful. Lemon, pear, orange, haze, should be quite the experience.

Red Sprite - New Strain - Lineage: Red Lebanese/Puck x Piff S1/A5 Thai - Bred by Neutrino Organics

• Again, massive terp fraction due to this being a haze type cut. This is a melting pot mix consisting of material from all 20 phenos from the hunt. The plants ranged from gassy grape piff, to piff forward NL5, to peanut oil thai/afghani. Expect a very unique experience that will not be replicated, we kept one cut.

Dubble Black Haze - New Strain - Lineage: Cuban Black Haze x Sour Dubble - Bred by Melting Pot Farms

• A really nice Melting Pot mix of seeds from Melting Pot Farms! I have wanted to type that since popping these seeds. The Dubb wasnt really dominant here, it really just functioned to reduce the haze run time and tighten it up a tad. You can expect Black Haze forward terps on these, and an energetic daytime high that is excellent for enjoying fall weather.

And.. More Dragonfruit Thai, a new run of Kosher BC1, the first production run of our Z x SFV Sour cut, the last of The Juice for the foreseeable future, etc. Fun times ahead!
