Strain Description:

Melonade Runtz is a photoperiod cannabis strain belonging to the elite USA line of Dutch Passion hybrids. Designed for both connoisseurs and commercial growers, it’s a balanced hybrid that delivers top-shelf results with minimal difficulty. Her structure is compact and sturdy, producing dense, heavily resinous buds that shine with bag appeal. The cross between Lemon Z, Lemon Tree, and Runtz infuses this strain with an unmistakable “Cali” aroma — pungent, fruity, creamy, and exotic.


This strain is easy to manage, forgiving for beginners, and adaptable to most cultivation methods. Her fast flowering time and strong branching make her suitable for Sea of Green (SOG) and natural growth setups. A dream for growers seeking a manageable plant that doesn’t sacrifice yield or quality.


Growing Information:

Melonade Runtz thrives in controlled indoor environments, performing exceptionally under high-quality LED lighting. Outdoors, she prefers warm, dry, and sunny climates but can also flourish in temperate regions when protected from humidity. Flowering typically takes 9–10 weeks, producing large, sticky buds that often require support in the final phase due to their density and weight.


Plants remain compact, rarely exceeding medium height, with a manageable stretch during early bloom. The average yield ranges between 400–450 g/m² indoors, while outdoor plants in large pots or ground setups can produce up to 500 g per plant. Her strong branches and short internodes help maintain structural integrity, even when loaded with heavy flowers.


Flavour and Aromas:

Melonade Runtz’s terpene profile is a true explosion of fruit and sweetness. The aroma blends sour lemon, tropical fruit, and cream with hints of candy and cookie dough from her Runtz lineage. Her flavour mirrors the scent, combining tangy tropical zest with soft, creamy undertones. The smoke is smooth and aromatic, leaving a fruity sweetness that lingers on the palate. Her complex terpene mix is rich in limonene, myrcene, and caryophyllene, amplifying both flavour and effect.


Strain Lineage:

• Melonade (Lemon Z × Lemon Tree): Dutch Passion’s cup-winning Lemon Z genetics crossed with the potent, citrus-heavy Lemon Tree for exceptional flavour and strength.

• Runtz (Zkittlez × Gelato): A world-famous Californian strain celebrated for its dessert-like aroma, creamy undertones, and sky-high THC content.


The result is a perfectly balanced hybrid that merges the fruity sweetness of Zkittlez with the creamy body of Gelato and the citrus zest of Lemon Tree.


Effects:

Melonade Runtz produces an intensely potent, full-bodied high that blends cerebral euphoria with deep physical relaxation. The initial effect is uplifting and euphoric, quickly followed by a narcotic, body-heavy stone. Thanks to the synergistic “entourage effect” from her complex terpene mix, the high feels layered and long-lasting. This makes Melonade Runtz perfect for evening relaxation or for experienced users seeking powerful, medicinal effects against pain, stress, or insomnia.


For novice users, caution is advised — her potency can easily overwhelm. In moderation, however, the experience is blissful, comforting, and deeply satisfying.


Flowering Time:

Melonade Runtz flowers in approximately 9–10 weeks under a 12/12 light cycle. Indoors, this translates to an average total cycle of 12–14 weeks from seed to harvest. In outdoor grows, flowering begins naturally as daylight hours shorten, with harvest typically falling between early and late October in the Northern Hemisphere. Stable climates ensure the best resin and flavour production, while controlled humidity prevents bud rot during late bloom.


Yield:

• Indoor: 400–450 g/m²

• Outdoor: Up to 500 g per plant in optimal conditions


Her dense buds are heavy and highly resinous, producing excellent material for hash, rosin, and other extracts. With expert care, experienced growers may exceed these yields thanks to her robust structure and trichome production.


Expert Advice:

Melonade Runtz responds well to standard feeding and moderate pruning. She’s particularly suited for indoor growers seeking manageable, high-yield plants with top-tier potency. Use trellis or yo-yos during late bloom to support heavy buds. Maintain a consistent environment with low humidity (40–45%) during flowering to enhance terpene retention and prevent mould. For optimal flavour, extend curing time post-harvest — her terpene complexity deepens beautifully with age.


Strain Summary:

Melonade Runtz (Feminised) by Dutch Passion is a modern masterpiece that fuses the best of the USA’s elite genetics with Dutch breeding precision. With THC levels exceeding 25%, a rich, fruity aroma, and unbeatable bag appeal, it’s a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs alike. Easy to grow, highly potent, and incredibly flavourful — this is a strain that defines top-shelf quality.
