New cannabis seeds for 2026: powerhouse genetics with knockout punch

With unusually long breeding projects of up to 4 years, these three new Dutch Passion strains represent the very finest genetics for commercial release in mid-February 2026. Expect predictable, easy growth alongside extremely terpy flavours and rock-solid high THC levels as standard. 

Fruit Bomb Punch & Kingston Punch are high-quality feminised seed varieties painstakingly created to deliver cannabis cup winning buds crop after crop. Auto Kingston Punch, a high-THC heavyweight with spicy Caribbean flavours, is the only autoflower seed variety to meet the selection criteria for this round.

These three new releases represent a particularly strong addition to the Dutch Passion collection, with initial quantities expected to be limited.

Introducing Fruit Bomb Punch, Kingston Punch & Auto Kingston Punch 

Fruit Bomb Punch, Kingston Punch and Auto Kingston Punch continue Dutch Passion’s tradition of high-quality, un-rushed breeding projects, developed over several years to meet exceptionally high release standards. All three strains were selected from the most terpene-rich offspring and refined through backcrossing to deliver consistent results, 20–25% THC levels with higher peaks, high-end yields and uncomplicated grow performance. The Dutch Passion genetics team are particularly proud of these new lines, with their connoisseur bud quality, intense aromas and heavy trichome coverage. Special grow diaries featuring these varieties will be coming soon on the Dutch Passion blog. 

Fruit Bomb Punch: an intensely terpene-rich strain with extreme THC levels

Fruit Bomb Punch is a sativa-dominant hybrid feminised cannabis seed variety from Dutch Passion, celebrated for her exceptionally intense, sweet and explosive fruity terpene profile that delivers an unparalleled blast of citrus, ripe tropical fruit, candy-like sweetness. Alongside this are layered notes sometimes with subtle cream, candy, or faint chemical/diesel undertones making the aroma powerfully penetrating and the flavour thick, smooth and profoundly delicious. Giving your grow room or smoke session a fruit shop vibe. 

Bred from complex genetics including a Swiss Erdbeer IBL (strawberry landrace) crossed with (Tangie x Cherry Pie) BX1 and stabilised further with multi-cup-winning Sugar Bomb Punch produces robust, resilient medium-to-large plants with vigorous growth, significant stretch during flowering and a hybrid leaf structure. She leans slightly towards the sativa side with large, dense, sticky buds blanketed in thick trichomes, bright orange pistils and vibrant autumn colours (orange, red and/or purple hues develop under LEDs) for outstanding bag appeal. 

This high-yielding variety produces XXL harvests of 550-600+ g/m² (1.8–2.0+ oz/ft²) indoors - more with SCROG/SOG techniques and up to 750-1000 g / 26-35oz per plant outdoors in sunny, dry climates. Flowering time is around 9 weeks (60-65 days indoors) and mid-to-late October outdoors. 

Effects are potent (THC up to 25%), predominantly cerebral, energetic, happy, uplifting, sociable and long-lasting—ideal for daytime, parties, creativity, or socialising. But note that the inbuilt heavyweight potency demands moderation in order to avoid overwhelming effects.  Fruit Bomb Punch is a top feminised seed choice for flavour connoisseurs seeking premium, fruity, high-quality cannabis.

Kingston Punch: tropical sativa-dominant feminised cannabis seeds

Kingston Punch is an exclusive sativa-dominant feminised cannabis seed variety born from a collaboration between Dutch Passion and Argentine reggae collective PelaGatos. Kingston Punch debuted as a limited-edition release in South America and Central America in late 2025, but her exceptional performance and widespread grower acclaim quickly earned her a permanent spot in Dutch Passion's main 2026 feminised seed lineup.

Crafted over four years of professional selective breeding, she crosses the fruity, trichome-heavy Californian Mimosa (Clementine x Purple Punch) with the high-yielding, clear-headed Skywalker Haze. Blending elite genetics to capture vibrant Caribbean energy, reggae cultural inspiration and themes of unity and positive vibes.
 
Kingston Punch is a grower-friendly variety features manageable stretch despite her sativa dominance. She adapts well to indoor, outdoor, greenhouse, SCROG, or SOG setups with dense, oversized main blooms. She has moderate nutrient needs (EC under 1.8 in late flower) and strong performance in warm, humid tropical/subtropical outdoor climates. 

The standout terpene profile bursts with ripe orange, juicy mango, sweet exotic spices and a pungent haze-diesel undertone for a dank, long-lasting Caribbean aroma. Effects deliver a clear, energising, uplifting and creative cerebral high—perfect for daytime use, artistic pursuits, music, or social settings—promoting mental focus, inspiration and euphoria without physical heaviness. This makes Kingston Punch a super-tasty, reliable choice for sativa aficionados seeking tropical vibes and high potency. 

Auto Kingston Punch: exotic Caribbean spices & taste meet high-THC buds

Auto Kingston Punch is the autoflower seed counterpart to the iconic Kingston Punch, an exclusive Dutch Passion collaboration with PelaGatos (Buenos Aires, Argentina). She debuted as a limited-edition release in South America and Central America in late 2025 before earning permanent status in both the Dutch Passion Argentina and European autoflower seed collections. This is due to her exceptional performance, routine 20-25% THC levels and ongoing grower acclaim. 



This sativa-dominant auto combines the elite Mimosa clone (Clementine x Purple Punch) for the fruity profile, heavy trichomes and euphoric effects with Auto Skywalker Haze. Auto Skywalker Haze is a highly productive, potent auto (over 26% THC in independent tests). As well as bringing an ultra-high THC foundation to the new genetic line, Auto Skywalker Haze is also one of Dutch Passion’s terpiest strains in her own right.

Auto Kingston Punch suits novice and experienced growers alike, featuring a slim sativa structure with limited lateral branching and a chunky central main cola. She responds well to LST and thrives in 11L+ containers (2.4+ gal) or naturally outdoors. She excels in hot/subtropical climates. Indoors she takes around 11 weeks under 18/6 or 20/4 autoflower light schedules. She also grows well in poly tunnels and greenhouses. 

The vibrant terpene profile bursts with ripe citrus (orange), sharp lime zest, sweet exotic Caribbean spices and a pungent haze-diesel undertone for a bold, pungent tropical aroma. Effects are predominantly cerebral—energising, uplifting, motivating and social. Ideal for daytime, creative pursuits or social vibes, with a gentle physical relaxation. The laid-back vibes and powerful effects give a nod of respect to reggae culture's roots in Kingston, Jamaica, symbolising freedom, unity and positive vibrations. 

What you can expect from these new cannabis seed varieties

These three strains represent the first releases of Dutch Passion’s 2026 breeding programme, selected after extensive testing from a wide pool of candidates.

For growers and seed buyers, that translates into dependable, high-performance genetics with distinct terpene profiles, strong yields and consistently high THC levels. Fruit Bomb Punch and Kingston Punch each bring their own flavour identity and growth characteristics, while sharing the same stability and ease of cultivation expected from Dutch Passion’s top-tier feminised cannabis seed lines.

Auto Kingston Punch completes the trio with a distinctly Caribbean terpene profile, reliable 25% THC peaks and the same straightforward growth performance found across Dutch Passion’s award-winning autoflower seed range, both indoors and outdoors.
