Melonade Runtz awarded best strain of the year in Argentina

Dutch Passion has reached a new incredible milestone, winning its 100th cannabis cup. The most recent victory was achieved at the Expo Cannabis 2024 in Argentina, where the highly-anticipated Melonade Runtz took home the title of best strain of the year. This remarkable achievement not only celebrates the excellence of Melonade Runtz, but also underscores Dutch Passion's continued leadership in the cannabis seed industry.

Melonade Runtz: A juicy victory to remember

What makes this victory even more impressive is that Melonade Runtz already stands at two cannabis cups (following the 2nd place at Dab-A-Doo in the Dry Sift category) despite only being released in early 2024. Despite its short time on the market, this USA Special hybrid cross has already captured the hearts of connoisseurs and beginner growers alike.

The strain is a unique cross of the popular Melonade (Lemon Z x Lemon Tree) and Runtz genetics, boasting exquisite fruity flavours with notes of tropical citrus, candy sweetness, and an unmistakable creamy / doughy smoothness. She’s a hybrid variety, taking 9-10 weeks in bloom, sometimes with dark hues in the buds and leaves.

Not only does Melonade Runtz offer an outstanding flavour profile, but she also excels in yield, potency, and ease of cultivation. Combined with a THC content of 20-25% and a generous resin production, her attributes make her a standout in Dutch Passion's already diverse catalogue of award-winning cannabis seed genetics.

Fans of autoflower seeds may want to check out Auto Melonade Runtz, with exceptionally dank and resinous buds already independently measured at 23.8% THC, alongside a very high 1.26% terpene loading. Definitely one of the most impressive autoflower seed varieties currently in the Dutch Passion collection.
