Red 40

hybrid

Red 40 refers to two genetically distinct hybrid strains sharing the same name, each offering unique terpene profiles ranging from strawberry-cocoa to fruit-forward GMO funk.

About Red 40

The name Red 40 is currently applied to two distinct cultivars. The first, bred by HashHeads Genes, is a cross of Ichigo 100 #9 and a pairing of Red Pop and Red Runtz. This version is characterized by aromas of underripe strawberries, cocoa, and a sharp chemical finish. It was specifically selected for solventless extraction, with a focus on resin production and vigorous growth.

The second version, offered by High End Farms, is a sativa-dominant hybrid created by crossing Red Pop with GMO. This iteration is noted for a profile that blends sweet fruit with the heavy, funky gas associated with its GMO lineage. Users report this version as being fast-acting, often inducing talkative and giggly effects. These two strains are considered separate entities rather than different expressions of the same genetic line.

Plant characteristics

The HashHeads Genes selection is a compact, stout plant that typically flowers in approximately 62 days. It exhibits a vigorous stretch during the early stages of the flowering cycle before developing dense, resin-heavy buds. The plant is known to display red and purple hues when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures during the flowering phase.
