MacDaddy
Also known as: Mac Daddy
MacDaddy Strain Overview
MacDaddy is a potent hybrid cannabis strain developed by Capulator, the same breeder responsible for the original MAC (Miracle Alien Cookies). This strain represents a deliberate breeding project that combines the genetics of MAC with a selected phenotype of The White, resulting in a cultivar that emphasizes the desirable traits of both parent lines. The strain emerged in the late 2010s as part of a wave of MAC crosses that gained popularity among connoisseurs for their complex terpene profiles and balanced effects.
Visually, MacDaddy plants typically produce dense, resin-coated buds with a distinctive appearance. The nugs often display a mix of deep purple and forest green hues, accented by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of frosty trichomes. The strain's name reflects its impressive resin production and potent effects, with 'Mac' referencing its Miracle Alien Cookies lineage and 'Daddy' suggesting its status as a standout phenotype. The buds are usually compact and tightly structured, with a sticky texture that indicates high terpene content.
MacDaddy is noted for its complex aromatic profile that combines sweet, gassy, and fruity notes. The strain has gained recognition in cannabis competitions and among experienced users for its consistent quality and powerful effects. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream commercial strains, MacDaddy maintains a dedicated following in craft cannabis circles where its unique characteristics are particularly appreciated.

MacDaddy Strain Growing Information
MacDaddy is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to maximize its potential. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. Indoor yields are generally moderate to high, with proper training and nutrition. The plants prefer a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean climates with consistent temperatures. MacDaddy plants tend to stay relatively compact, making them suitable for indoor spaces with height restrictions. Growers should monitor humidity levels carefully during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture issues. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to increase yield and light penetration.
