I’ve been looking for a strong, euphoric/uplifting strain for a couple months now. When I got runtz, I realized that you should be careful what you wish for. Two puffs of this puppy and I was knocked out. I smoke daily, but this took awhile to build up any sort of a tolerance to. Total euphoric bliss. I’m more talkative and couldn’t feel more like a cloud. I had a busy weekend with this strain, and it made every part of my weekend just so much better. Got my friends some as well and we even got some of our non-smoking friends to try it this weekend(it was hilarious in case you were wondering). Totally recommend this strain to anyone suffering from feeling down or stressed out. Also to anyone who feels uptight or feels like they need to unwind a little. Very fun strain
There’s a lot of breeders working with the Runtz clone and its three main phenotypes, Runtz, Pink Runtz, & White Runtz, which is, almost ironically, purple. She’s just got so much resin glands completely covering every inch of her flowers and the leaves surrounding them - including trichomes that blanket the larger fan leaves growing from within a flower head & that seem to just ooze out of the leaves’ jagged profile. Massive rails of trichomes cluster along the edges of the fan leaves, growing out of one another - especially thickly towards the base of the leaves. It is this arctic fox ‘fur coat’ of white trichomes that gives the White Runtz chemotype its name. Pink Runtz flowers can be green or purple, but are usually a combination of both, and can be identified by the pink pistils that grow from the bud clusters, while finally the generalized Runtz phenotype can also be any color, but has white pistils, and is the most common pheno / chemotype in the genetics of the cultivar. It’s also the most terpene heavy of the three, IMHO, leaning towards the tropical fruit profile of its Zkittlez mother, but with that undeniable vanilla & dessert aroma that the Gelato father passed down to the Runtz. Being on the East Coast, I haven’t had the opportunity to taste the original clone or cookies branded packages of this strain, but I’ve come as close as one can living where I do - by growing many Runtz S1s & crosses at home myself in organic living soil, which, as long as the plant is grown attentively, with a lot of TLC, by a cultivator who knows what they’re doing,few growers can argue allows the plant to produce the most high quality expression of its genetics, with the loudest terps and most trichome laden buds, with an unfortunate hit in the yield department. But for me, truly self-reliant plants, grown totally organically in a healthy soil ecosystem loaded with nutrients that the microbes will break down at different rates for the most crucial elements & secondary elements, as well as those needed towards the end of the bloom period like sulfur for the terpenes, as well as calcium, magnesium, & micronutrients, along with the obvious phosphorus & potassium, provides the plant with the nutrients it most desires in late flowering, with that most crucial of reasons organically grown plants are so high quality, because, like wild plants, they produce complex sugars and carbohydrates with their waste materials & some of the sugar & sugar alcohols they produced during the day’s photosynthesis, & at night, these compounds are sent to the root zone & are exuded in order to attract specific soil microbes, who are carrying exactly the elements that the plant needs, into the rhizosphere, a single mm area around the plant’s many roots, and these compounds, or exudates as they are known, are exchanged for the elements the microbes are carrying, in one of nature’s most common and constantly occurring symbiotic relationships, which means that no matter what nutrients the soil contains, so long as there are enough of them & the soil mixture is balanced and its pH is within the ideal range, the quality of the blooms produced by the plant will be the best that they can, as long as all the other aspects of the grow, such as temperature, relative humidity, constant air movement that is able to reach all areas of the plant, & an effective, but not overly heavy, IPM (Integrated Pest Management) program is followed, etc., & the plants are well pruned, trained, observed, & managed above all, ensures the most crucial and ideal expression of the plants’ high quality genetics will manifest. Followed by a whole plant slow dry, in cool conditions with the relative humidity between 56%-64%, of 10-14 days, a careful hand trim, & a proper curing regimen that isn’t rushed, & in 6-12 weeks, the terpenes will have combined & the overall scent and taste deepened, the chlorophyll will be metabolized, making the flower far less harsh, the THCA & CBDA, as well as all the other acid forms of the cannabinoids that exist in the raw plant material will be at least partially decarboxylated into THC & CBD etc., making the flower more potent, (heat decarboxylates the remaining cannabinoids), & the chemical processes that occur during the cure will ensure that the once fresh, vegetative material, will now be a finished product that will possess a shelf life of 2-3 years or more when stored properly, and the buds will be in the cultivar’s highest quality, final, complex form.
on god im depressed and this strain makes me think so positively its really uplifting and euphoric for sure. hella dry mouth tho and my head feels bigger than normal but i like it like that sometimes.

I fell in love after the first hit, honestly felt high after two hits 😅. Felt very relaxed and energetic.

Pretty flower. Great smelling flower. Great tasting flower. The potency was subpar to me. Im a daily smoker (dont smoke all day though) and I was burning through this stuff like crazy to get up and stay up. It was nice the few times I got past initial slow high. Nice and mellow and a bit introvert and just all around great vibes.
Perfectly Balanced. No complaints. And definitely a go to for decompression after a hard day’s work.
My loyalties lie forever with runtz! By far, my favorite strain.
This gas is fire fr. Ima daily smoker, n I only take 1 gb, 2 tops, to be flyying. Definitely one of my favorite strains ever!
