Biscotti Mintz is our cross of Biscotti and Kush Mintz. The feminized result is 80% indica and 20% sativa, with a THC content of 33%, a flowering time of 56 to 63 days indoors, and an outdoor harvest in the first to second week of October.
Biscotti brings the Cookies and OG Kush backbone, along with the potency and the bakery flavor. Our Mintz phenotype adds a creamy, smooth mint layer and a faster finish, and the pairing produced one of the strongest strains we have ever released.
Biscotti Mintz effects
The effect is creative and focused at the start, with a clear head that suits a project or a long conversation. A creeping body high builds underneath, relaxing without stealing all your energy.
At 33% THC, this is serious strength. One small draw and a few minutes of patience is the right way to start.
Aroma, flavor and terpenes
The flavor is kushy and rich, with chocolate chip cookie, creamy mint and a little spice. The aroma is creamy and smooth, with the mint showing more as the buds dry.
Limonene, caryophyllene and eucalyptol lead the terpene profile. Eucalyptol brings the cool, fresh mint edge, caryophyllene adds peppery spice, and limonene gives a bright lift on top.
Color and bag appeal
Biscotti Mintz is predominantly a deep purple plant. In the final days the leaves turn shades of purple, orange and green, wrapped around tight, dark green buds with bold purple highlights and long orange hairs.
Trichome production is extremely heavy. Cooler nights in the last two weeks deepen the purple, and a drop of about 10°F (5 to 6°C) below daytime temperature is enough.
Growing Biscotti Mintz indoors
The plant stays compact, finishing at 80 to 110cm (31 to 43 inches) indoors with yields of 600 to 700g/m². The short frame and small stretch make it a strong fit for small tents.
Top once and run a screen of green, or grow several smaller plants in a sea of green. Veg for about four weeks and keep daytime temperatures at 75 to 80°F (24 to 27°C).
Feed at a moderate strength with good calcium and magnesium support, because the Cookies side of Biscotti shows tip burn early.
Growing Biscotti Mintz outdoors
Outdoors, Biscotti Mintz grows to 120 to 200cm (4 to 6.5 feet) and can produce up to 1,500g (about 3.3 lb) per plant, with harvest in the first to second week of October.
It does best in a warm, dry fall, and cool late-season nights bring out the strongest colors. In regions with early rain, a greenhouse protects the dense buds through the last weeks.
Harvest and cure
The buds finish tight and resinous, so hold relative humidity at 45 to 50% from week five and keep air moving through the canopy. Harvest when most trichomes are cloudy with a small share of amber.
Dry slowly for ten to fourteen days at around 60°F (16°C) and 60% humidity. Mint and citrus terpenes fade fast in a warm room, and a cure of at least three weeks brings the cookie and mint together.
