Cherry Buckeye

Cherry Buckeye is a hybrid cannabis strain, known for its relaxed effects and cherry and earthy flavor profile.

Cherry Buckeye is a cannabis hybrid strain developed by Melvanetics, created through crossing Cherry Pie and Buckeye Purple genetics. This unique combination brings together the sweet, fruity characteristics of Cherry Pie with the deep relaxation properties of Buckeye Purple, an indica-dominant strain known for its heavy sedating effects. The strain represents a working project that combines two distinctly different flavor profiles and effects.

According to breeder descriptions, the mother plant selected for this cross is notably different from both parent strains, displaying neither the typical cherry characteristics nor the purple coloration one might expect. Instead, it presents as "a nasty reeker with undertones of meat," suggesting a more pungent, savory aroma profile that departs significantly from the sweet, fruity expectations of its lineage. This unique characteristic makes Cherry Buckeye a particularly interesting strain for those seeking something different from typical cherry-flavored cannabis varieties.

The strain requires approximately 74 days (about 10.5 weeks) for flowering, which is longer than average, indicating it may produce more substantial yields or more complex terpene development. Cherry Buckeye can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, making it versatile for different growing setups. As with many specialty strains from boutique breeders like Melvanetics, this variety was never made available as feminized seeds, suggesting it remains a more exclusive, limited-release strain primarily available to experienced growers working with regular seeds.
