Zkittlez Blood
Also known as: Zkittlez Bloodline, Zkittlez Red
Zkittlez Blood Strain Overview
Zkittlez Blood is a relatively rare cannabis strain that represents a specialized phenotype of the popular Zkittlez cultivar. This particular expression emphasizes the strain's deep red and purple pigmentation while maintaining the signature candy-like flavor profile that made the original Zkittlez famous. The strain was developed through selective breeding to enhance anthocyanin production, resulting in striking visual characteristics that give it the 'Blood' designation.
The strain exhibits dense, resinous buds with a distinctive color palette ranging from deep forest green to vibrant purple and crimson hues, often with bright orange pistils contrasting against the darker foliage. The trichome coverage is typically heavy, giving the buds a frosty appearance. Zkittlez Blood maintains the complex terpene profile of its parent strain, combining sweet, fruity aromas with earthy undertones. The visual appeal of this phenotype has made it particularly sought after by connoisseurs and collectors.
As a phenotype variation rather than a distinct genetic line, Zkittlez Blood shares most characteristics with standard Zkittlez but with enhanced pigmentation. The rarity of consistent expression of these blood-red traits means availability can be limited, and phenotypes may vary between growers. The strain's development represents the ongoing refinement of popular cultivars to emphasize specific desirable traits within established genetic frameworks.

Zkittlez Blood Strain Growing Information
Zkittlez Blood presents moderate cultivation difficulty due to its specific phenotype expression requirements. The strain typically flowers in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October. Plants tend to remain relatively compact, reaching heights of 3-4 feet indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors. Yield is moderate, producing approximately 1-1.5 ounces per square foot indoors or 14-18 ounces per plant outdoors.
To encourage the distinctive red and purple coloration, growers often employ temperature differential techniques during the flowering phase, exposing plants to cooler nighttime temperatures (55-65°F). The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods but requires careful nutrient management as it can be sensitive to overfeeding. Good air circulation is recommended to prevent mold in the dense buds. Zkittlez Blood can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors in Mediterranean climates, though indoor cultivation allows better control over the environmental factors needed for optimal color expression.
