Washing Machine Strain Overview
Washing Machine is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (80% indica/20% sativa) developed by Ripper Seeds of Spain through crossing the original Exodus Cheese clone with Bubba Kush. This cultivar has gained recognition in the European cannabis community, particularly for its excellence in hash-making and extraction applications, which influenced its utilitarian naming convention. The strain has earned multiple cannabis competition awards, including 3rd place for Best Outdoor Flower at the 2017 THC Cup, 3rd place at the 2016 Indoor THC Cup, 3rd place for Resins at the 2016 Expogrow Cup, and 2nd place at the 2015 Bio CATFAC Cup.
Washing Machine is characterized by its dense, compact buds with deep forest green coloration accented by purple hues and bright orange pistils. The flowers are generously coated with white crystalline trichomes that can comprise 30-40% of the visible bud structure, giving it a frosted appearance. The strain exhibits a complex aromatic profile combining earthy, cheese-funk aromas with distinctive sweet anise and licorice notes, along with hints of moist soil and spice. This unique sensory experience reflects its Cheese lineage while incorporating the earthy depth of its Bubba Kush genetics.

Washing Machine Strain Growing Information
Washing Machine has a fast flowering time of 60-65 days indoors and is ready for outdoor harvest by the end of September. The strain is recommended for experienced growers due to its vigorous stretching tendency, often doubling in height during the flowering transition. Growers should keep the vegetative cycle short (2-4 weeks) to control height. The plant produces high yields and develops striking purple flowers with abundant trichome production. It can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation provides better environmental control. The strain requires careful attention during drying and curing to preserve its valuable terpene content, which can reach up to 2.5% in premium batches.
