Zkittlez Feminized

Zkittlez Feminized is a balanced indica/sativa photoperiod hybrid, a cross of Grape Ape and Grapefruit, for growers who want a fruity, aromatic flower. Expect up to 19% THC, a flowering window of 7 to 8 weeks (49 to 56 days) and a plant you control with the switch to 12 hours of light.

Genetics

Grape Ape x Grapefruit. Grape Ape contributes the dense, resinous structure and the compact node spacing of the indica side, Grapefruit the bright, citrus-forward character of the sativa side. Another plant from the same family in our catalogue: Watermelon Zkittlez Feminized.

Aroma and effect

Caryophyllene leads, followed by humulene and linalool: tropical fruit and grape on the palate, citrus in the middle and a light herbal earthiness at the end. The effect begins in the head, a cerebral lift, then settles into relaxation of the whole body.

Growing

A bushy plant for indoor and outdoor growing that flowers in 7 to 8 weeks (49 to 56 days) from the switch to 12 hours of light. Indoor yield averages 400 g/m²; outdoor plants give 500 g each, harvested in early October.

Keep air moving through the dense buds and humidity low in the final weeks, and read our guide to bud rot and mould. For the Quebec season, see our outdoor growing guide.
