Red Runtz
Also known as: Red Pop Runtz
Red Runtz Strain Overview
Red Runtz is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain bred by Exotic Genetix, created by crossing the classic Red Pop strain with the popular Runtz strain. This 50/50 indica/sativa hybrid represents a perfect balance of genetic influences from both parent lineages, combining the indica-dominant Red Pop (known for its cherry soda flavor profile) with the candy-sweet Runtz hybrid. Red Runtz is considered a relatively rare and exotic strain that even experienced cannabis connoisseurs may not be familiar with, yet it has gained significant attention in the cannabis community for its unique characteristics and potent effects.
The strain's most striking feature is its remarkable visual appeal, featuring maroonish-purple buds with thick orange pistils and dark purple leaves, with the actual buds displaying a distinctive red color after trimming. The dense, heavy buds showcase deep blue nugs with reddish undertones, thick red-orange hairs, and are generously coated with dark blue-tinted white crystal trichomes. The visual presentation is complemented by an exceptional aroma profile described as intensely fruity and sweet, resembling the scent of walking into a candy store with intoxicating notes of fresh berries and candy. The flavor profile combines the best attributes of both parent strains, delivering a sour yet sweet raspberry candy overtone accented by sugary fruits, fresh berries, and subtle hints of tangy fruits and spice.

Red Runtz Strain Growing Information
Red Runtz has a relatively short flowering time of 8-9 weeks, making it attractive for growers who want quick results. The strain shows indica dominance (80/20 ratio in some phenotypes) which keeps plants relatively short and manageable, though growers need adequate lateral space for proper development. While Red Runtz has heavy yield potential, it requires skilled cultivation with early topping and regular pruning essential for optimal light exposure throughout the canopy. The strain performs equally well both indoors and outdoors, with the same topping and pruning considerations needed for outdoor cultivation. Red Runtz is considered suitable for both new and experienced growers, being most at home indoors where controlled pruning can expose the entire canopy's bud sites, rewarding careful cultivation with heavy yields and captivating maroon-colored buds. The strain is rated as moderate difficulty for cultivation.
