Polar Pop Strain Overview
Polar Pop is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Compound Genetics through crossing Gastro Pop #5 and The Menthol. This strain emerged during a period of innovative cannabis breeding, representing modern cultivation techniques that push the boundaries of genetic combinations. The strain quickly gained recognition for its unique flavor profile and potent effects, standing out in the competitive cannabis market for its distinctive characteristics.
The visual appearance of Polar Pop is striking, featuring oversized, fluffy, conical emerald-green buds with dark purple leaves, thick orange hairs, and dense coverage of purple-tinted white crystal trichomes. The buds are known for their exceptional resin production and frosty appearance that signals high potency. The strain's morphology is similar to its Gastro Pop parent, featuring beautiful swollen calyxes and dense, well-formed structure that makes it appealing to both novice growers and experienced connoisseurs.
Polar Pop is characterized by its complex terpene profile that combines intense sweet fruit characteristics from Gastro Pop with distinctive menthol notes from The Menthol parent. The flavor experience includes sugary tropical banana notes with bright, spicy menthol undertones, while the aroma presents a spicy diesel base accented by peppery menthol and tropical citrus. This unique combination creates a refreshing sensory experience that lives up to its name, reminiscent of the childhood frozen treat.

Polar Pop Strain Growing Information
Polar Pop is considered a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, requiring meticulous attention to environmental factors for optimal results. The flowering time ranges from 8-9 weeks (approximately 60-70 days), making it a relatively fast-flowering choice. Plants exhibit medium to high stretch during flowering and can produce high yields ranging up to 450g/m². The strain is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing is often preferred for yield control.
