Bay Lotus
Bay Lotus Strain Overview
Bay Lotus is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (60% sativa/40% indica) bred by Grand Daddy Purp Seeds through the crossbreeding of Bay 11 and White Lotus from Bodhi Seeds. This strain emerged from the innovative cannabis breeding community as a medicinal-focused cultivar designed to combine the energetic, creative effects of sativa genetics with the therapeutic benefits of higher CBD content. Developed by Ken Estes of Grand Daddy Purp fame, Bay Lotus represents a unique achievement in cannabis breeding by successfully balancing both high THC levels (21-24%) and remarkably elevated CBD content (9-12%), a combination rarely seen in modern hybrid strains.
The strain is characterized by its fluffy, fan-shaped olive-green buds with dark leaves, abundant thin orange hairs, and a dense coating of bright white trichomes. Bay Lotus produces dense, resinous flowers that emit an intense, complex aroma featuring sweet berries, vanilla notes, and spicy diesel undertones, with the flavor profile delivering fruity berry and vanilla sweetness complemented by a lightly spicy exhale. This distinctive aromatic profile reflects its diverse genetic heritage, combining the citrus and honey characteristics from Bay 11 with the floral and hash notes from White Lotus.
