Mac Nut
Also known as: MAC Nut, Macadamia Nut
Mac Nut Strain Overview
Mac Nut is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing the popular Miracle Alien Cookies (MAC) with an undisclosed nutty-flavored cultivar. The strain emerged in the late 2010s as breeders sought to combine MAC's potent effects and complex terpene profile with distinctive nutty flavor notes. While its exact genetic lineage beyond the MAC parent remains somewhat obscure in public records, the strain has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its unique sensory profile and balanced effects.
Visually, Mac Nut typically produces dense, resinous buds with a structure reminiscent of its MAC parentage. The flowers often display a vibrant color palette ranging from deep forest green to purple hues, accented by bright orange pistils and a thick coating of crystalline trichomes. The strain's name derives from its distinctive aroma and flavor profile, which combines MAC's complex terpene expression with pronounced nutty undertones reminiscent of macadamia nuts.
Mac Nut represents a relatively recent development in cannabis breeding, with limited historical documentation compared to more established strains. Its popularity has grown primarily through word-of-mouth recommendations in cannabis communities, particularly among users seeking strains with unique flavor combinations. The strain maintains some of MAC's celebrated characteristics while introducing novel sensory elements that distinguish it from its parent and other MAC crosses.

Mac Nut Strain Growing Information
Mac Nut is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Yields are generally moderate to high when grown under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Plants tend to reach medium height with a bushy structure that may require training and pruning for optimal light penetration. Mac Nut benefits from stable temperature and humidity conditions, particularly during flowering to prevent mold in its dense buds. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers reporting sensitivity to overfeeding.
