Runtz Muffin is our cross of Runtz genetics, Zkittlez and Gelato #33, with Orange Punch. The feminized result is 70% indica and 30% sativa, with a THC content of 30%, a flowering time of 56 to 63 days indoors and an outdoor harvest in the first to second week of October.
Runtz on its own is a balanced Cookies descendant famous for its flavor. Adding Orange Punch raised the indica share and the yield, and brought a layer of citrus into an already sweet profile.
Runtz Muffin effects
The effect lands as a fruity rush of joy and euphoria, followed by a deeply calming relaxation that quiets busy thoughts without shutting you down. Many people describe it as thoughtful and philosophical once the body has settled.
It suits late afternoons and evenings. At 30% THC, one or two draws is plenty for most people.
Aroma and flavor
The aroma is orange candy, spicy pineapple and tropical sweets, with a perfumed lavender note and a twist of clementine. Hints of orange marzipan often develop in late flower.
On the palate it is citrus and creamy fruit candy with pineapple on the finish. The smoke is dense and sweet, and a cure of at least three weeks keeps the candy notes clean.
Growing Runtz Muffin indoors
Runtz Muffin grows as a medium-height, well-branched plant with a moderate stretch. Indoors it finishes at 100 to 120cm (39 to 47 inches) after about four weeks of veg and yields 550 to 650g/m².
Top once and use low-stress training to spread the canopy, or run a screen of green to even out the tops. It is a forgiving plant and suits growers at any level who can keep humidity in check.
Keep daytime temperatures at 75 to 80°F (24 to 27°C) in flower, and feed at a moderate strength, because the Gelato side shows tip burn when pushed.
Color and late flower
Finished buds often show subtle purple tones against deep green, and cooler nights in the last two weeks help that color along. A night temperature about 10°F (5 to 6°C) below the day is enough.
The buds finish sticky and heavy with resin. Taper nitrogen once the stretch ends, hold relative humidity at or below 50% from week five, and keep air moving through the lower canopy.
Growing Runtz Muffin outdoors
Outdoors, Runtz Muffin grows to 150 to 200cm (5 to 6.5 feet) and can produce up to 1,000g (about 35 oz) per plant, with harvest in the first to second week of October.
It does best in a warm, dry fall. In regions where the rain arrives early, a greenhouse or rain cover keeps the resinous buds safe through the final weeks.
Harvest and cure
At 56 to 63 days, Runtz Muffin is one of the quicker indica-leaning hybrids in our catalog. Harvest when most trichomes are cloudy with a few amber for the calm, euphoric balance it is known for.
Dry slowly for ten to fourteen days at around 60°F (16°C) and 60% humidity to protect the citrus and lavender.
