Grand Manitou Strain Overview
Grand Manitou is a hybrid indica/sativa cannabis strain developed by Le Chef Boyardee, a boutique cannabis breeder. This strain is created by crossing Field Trip (Forum Cut GSC × Sunshine Daydream) and Trenchtown Skunk (Lambsbread × Jamaican Skunk). The complex genetic lineage brings together legendary genetics from both cookie and skunk families, creating a strain that "delivers a nice cookie frost with a blend of strong cheesy and skunky terps". The Trenchtown Skunk parent was developed using a Lambsbread cut directly from the Marley Family in Jamaica, crossed with Jamaican Skunk to create "an amazing plant with amazing vigor, big tight colas, strong branching and with a very pungent and particular odour and taste that is hard to describe". Field Trip #1 is described as "a frost monster, very vigorous and stretchy" that "turns a nice purple in the last weeks to showcase even more the layers of trichomes".
Users report that "Grand Manitou hits hard…real hard, but keeps you going at the same time", suggesting it provides potent effects while maintaining functionality. One user describes it as excellent "for day time use" noting "It definitely packs a punch, but does not burn me out". The strain appears to offer a balance between the cookie genetics' sweet frost and the skunk genetics' pungent, energizing qualities, making it appealing to both recreational and medicinal users seeking a potent yet functional hybrid experience.
