Crisco

Crisco is a sativa dominant hybrid (65% sativa/35% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 13-19% on average, with 0.9% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Crisco high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. Underneath the mental charge, a mellow body calm keeps things comfortable, taking the edge off without ever slowing you down. These combined effects make Crisco a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

On the palate, expect coffee and pine up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. Each exhale leaves a coffee-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has compact rounded dense green nugs with rich blue-purple undertones, fiery orange hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

For growers, Crisco offers a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them — expect plants flowering in around 8 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed.
