Ducksfoot Bx

Ducksfoot Bx is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 18.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.

Ducksfoot Bx is a stabilized backcross of the original Ducksfoot strain, a rare cannabis variety known for its unique leaf morphology that resembles a duck's webbed foot. The original Ducksfoot was developed in Australia during the 1970s by breeder Wally Duck, who selectively bred cannabis plants to produce leaves without the characteristic serrated edges, making the plant appear more like a common garden plant rather than cannabis. This camouflage characteristic was particularly valuable for growers in regions with strict cannabis prohibition laws. The Bx (backcross) version represents a more stabilized genetic line that maintains the distinctive leaf structure while improving consistency in growth patterns and cannabinoid profiles.

The strain is notable for its unusual appearance, featuring broad, rounded leaves with minimal serration that completely lack the typical cannabis leaf shape. This morphological trait is a recessive genetic characteristic that has been carefully preserved through selective breeding. The buds are typically dense and resinous, with colors ranging from light green to deep forest green, sometimes displaying purple hues in cooler temperatures. Unlike most cannabis strains, Ducksfoot Bx doesn't emit a strong cannabis odor during vegetative growth, though it develops a more distinctive aroma during flowering.

Ducksfoot Bx represents a fascinating example of cannabis genetics where breeders have prioritized stealth characteristics alongside psychoactive properties. The strain has gained particular interest among growers in prohibition areas and those interested in cannabis genetics research. While not as widely available as commercial strains, it maintains a dedicated following among enthusiasts who appreciate its unique history and characteristics. The backcrossing process has helped stabilize the recessive leaf trait while maintaining the original strain's effects profile.
