What is the El Zapo strain?
El Zapo is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
El Zapo is a hybrid cannabis strain created by Sour Genetics, representing the first hybrid to be released using their infamous El Chapo genetics. This strain is the result of crossing El Chapo with Dying Breed Seeds' Z-Cube male, with the intention of finding something that combined the distinctive Zkittlez terpene profile with the gas and power characteristics from El Chapo. The strain was developed to showcase a perfect marriage of sweet, fruity Z terps with deep, dank gassy terpenes. El Zapo exhibits characteristics inherited from both parent strains, featuring the trademark Zkittlez terpene profile alongside the potent effects and gassy diesel notes brought by El Chapo. The strain has gained attention for its complex flavor profile and balanced effects, making it appealing to both recreational and medicinal users. El Zapo V2, a later iteration, represents a cross of El Chapo with Cola Cubez, offering similar characteristics but with enhanced resin production and yield potential.
