Moonwine
Also known as: Moon Wine
Moonwine Strain Overview
Moonwine is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by Exotic Genetix, known for its unique combination of relaxing and euphoric effects. The strain was created by crossing the popular Wedding Cake with the exotic Purple Punch, resulting in a cultivar that inherits desirable traits from both parent strains. Moonwine emerged in the late 2010s as part of the growing trend toward dessert-themed cannabis varieties with complex flavor profiles and potent effects.
Visually, Moonwine plants typically display dense, resinous buds with a distinctive coloration that ranges from deep forest green to shades of purple, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The nugs are usually coated in a thick layer of frosty trichomes, giving them a sparkling appearance reminiscent of moonlight on wine. The strain's name reflects both its visual characteristics and its complex flavor profile, which combines sweet, fruity notes with earthy undertones.
Moonwine is particularly noted for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its versatility and manageable intensity. While not as widely available as some mainstream strains, Moonwine has developed a dedicated following within cannabis enthusiast communities, particularly among those who appreciate dessert strains with complex terpene profiles.

Moonwine Strain Growing Information
Moonwine is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready around mid-October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation but thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Moonwine plants tend to remain medium in height, making them suitable for indoor grows with limited vertical space. They respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and maintain proper airflow to prevent mold, particularly during the flowering stage when dense buds develop.
