Frankenberry
Also known as: The Frankenberry
Frankenberry Strain Overview
Frankenberry is a modern hybrid cannabis strain named after the iconic strawberry-flavored breakfast cereal, reflecting its distinctive sweet berry aroma and flavor profile. The strain is a berry-forward hybrid whose name tips its hat to the nostalgia of fruit-cereal aromas and a stitched-together pedigree, making it more of a family name for a recognizable chemotype—sweet berry aromatics with creamy, candy-like undertones—than a single, breeder-locked cultivar. Multiple breeders have developed their own versions of Frankenberry, resulting in cuts labeled Frankenberry that lean 60/40 indica-dominant to 60/40 sativa-dominant, with most landing near a balanced center.
The most commonly reported genetics trace back to crossing Big Bud × Purple Urkle strains, though some versions utilize Strawberry Cough and Northern Lights 5. The strain produces dense grape-shaped dark olive green nugs with bright purple undertones, thin orange hairs and a frosty thick coating of bright purple-tinted white crystal trichomes. Much like the cereal, this bud has a sweet and fruity berry flavor with touches of sour citrus and spicy herbs, with an aroma very similar, featuring an earthy herbal overtone accented by fresh fruity berries, sour citrus and a light touch of woody pine.

Frankenberry Strain Growing Information
Frankenberry is considered medium difficulty to grow with average flowering days: 56-63, high yield. The first phenotype cluster has broader, darker leaves, thicker stalks, and a shorter internodal distance—often finishing in 8–9 weeks with heavy coloration and a weighty, relaxing body effect. The second is airier and slightly taller, finishing in 9–10 weeks with a brighter, strawberry-leaning top note and a more buoyant, social headspace. Indoor yields can reach 450–600 g/m² (1.5–2.0 oz/ft²) with well-run SCROG setups. Skilled growers running high-efficiency LEDs, CO₂ enrichment, and dialed irrigation can push 600–750 g/m², often achieving 1.2–1.8 g/W in optimized conditions. The strain can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouses, with outdoor plants capable of producing 600–1,000 g per plant in 30–50 gallon containers with a long, warm season and full sun.
