Overview

GMO Rootbeer comes from noted breeders Skunktek and Mean Gene from Mendocino aka Freedborn Selections. The GMO Rootbeer weed strain reportedly combines GMO Cookies with Root Beer. GMO Rootbeer, also known as "GMO Root Beer," is an indica dominant hybrid strain (70% indica/30% sativa) created through crossing the tasty GMO X Vanilla Crème strains. The strain has gained significant popularity since 2020 as cannabis markets expanded and consumers sought distinctive flavors beyond typical dessert strains.

This bud has fluffy hand-shaped emerald-green nugs with dark purple undertones, lots of thin orange hairs and milky purple crystal trichomes. The medium-sized, dense, well-formed nugs of GMO Rootbeer exemplify the careful cultivation required to produce such a quality product. A thick blanket of milky purple trichomes gives the buds their distinctive opaque, snowy appearance, enhancing both aesthetics and potency. Like its namesake drink, this bud packs a sweet and creamy vanilla flavor accented by savory spices and hops. The aroma is very similar, almost like a fresh glass of sugary root beer accented with creamy vanilla foam and spicy dank.

GMO Rootbeer, sometimes styled as GMO Root Beer, is a modern craft-cannabis cultivar celebrated for a striking blend of savory garlic-fuel from GMO with nostalgic sarsaparilla, cola, and vanilla-cream notes reminiscent of old-school root beer barrels. The strain stands apart in the marketplace due to its unique terpene profile and high potency, with many licensed labs reporting it among the top tercile for total terpene load.

Growing Information

Growers can look forward to a short flowering phase lasting only 60 days, combined with high yields in the range of 400g/m². Flowering time averages 63 to 70 days, with some phenotypes running 9 weeks and others wanting a full 10 for maximal resin maturity and flavor depth. GMO Rootbeer is an indica / sativa from Freeborn Selections and can be cultivated indoors and outdoors Freeborn Selections's GMO Rootbeer is/was never available as feminized seeds. The high potency strain requires careful cultivation with temperatures between 70-85°F and humidity levels of 60-70%. These aromatic and visually striking ladies reach medium heights and benefit from some training and pruning early on for maximum airflow and light penetration to low-hanging branches. Odor control can become a problem towards the end of flowering. The strain inherits vigorous growth from its GMO parent and shows notable stretch during flowering.
