New Weed Strains of 2023 & the World’s First True F1 Cannabis Hybrids

You’ll remember 2023 as the year that the weed world changed forever. Why? Because we’re now proud to announce that our line of world-first F1 cannabis hybrids is hitting the shelves!

Since 2016, our breeders have worked hard to create inbred lines (IBLs) that serve as the genetic building blocks for our F1 hybrids. Find out more about our new line of F1 hybrid seeds below, and get ready to grow the most stable, high-yielding cannabis plants yet.

But the good news doesn’t end there. We’ve also released a new wave of USA Premium genetics that offer the sweetest terpene profiles you’ll ever come across, as well as mammoth quantities of THC.

Sundae Driver

Out of all the strains you blaze in 2023, Sundae Driver will stand out as one of the most memorable. Why? Well, where to start? Her gorgeous purple frosty buds make growing her a true pleasure, and her high levels of THC and motivating high will ensure your new year’s resolution actually sees the light of day.

Our breeders created this stunning variety by crossing American cultivars Fruity Pebbles and Grape Pie. As you can tell by their names, these strains passed down some seriously fruity terpenes. Sundae Driver buds offer a THC content of 23% and moreish blueberry, earth, and vanilla flavours. Prepare to blast off into euphoria after only a couple of tokes.

Grow this strain indoors, and plants will top out at the height of 140cm. Prepare to harvest up to 450g/m² after 9–11 weeks of flowering. Outdoors, she grows to 170cm and produces 450–500g/plant during early October.

Wedding Cake

Wedding Cake easily ranks as one of the best cannabis strains of 2023. This indica-dominant cultivar combines moderate levels of THC with outrageously sweet terpenes, resulting in an easily manageable and uplifting high. By crossing the legendary Girl Scout Cookies with Cherry Pie, our breeders struck gold with a strain that relaxes the body without pushing users over the edge.

Wedding Cake tastes superb in joints and blunts, but her saccharine terpene profile comes into its own when vaped. Enjoy waves of cookies, fruit, and earthiness as these aromatic molecules strike the taste buds. As these flavours fade, her THC content of 20% will redden your eyes and catalyse the giggles.

This cultivar performs great in most environments. Train her, and she’ll maintain a stealthy height of 70cm indoors, along with a yield of up to 500g/m². Outdoors, she thrives in regions with a short growing season; get ready to trim and dry 550–600g/plant during Early October.

Biscotti

Once you taste Biscotti, you’ll likely make a space for her in your grow room or garden indefinitely. Much like her namesake Italian biscuit, this strain leaves a pleasant taste lingering in the mouth. Our breeders achieved this desirable trait by pairing parent strains Gelato 25 and Triangle Kush, creating a progeny consisting of 80% indica genetics and 20% sativa.

But Biscotti doesn’t only boast moreish flavours; this potent cultivar packs a THC content of 25%, enough to challenge even experienced smokers. Paired with fruit, diesel, cookies, and pepper aromas, these buds are always a treat to blaze.

As far as growing goes, Biscotti delivers the goods both indoors and outdoors. Cultivate her in a grow tent, and she’ll provide up to 500g/m² after 8–10 weeks of flowering. And outdoors? She’ll peak at 180cm and churn out 550–600g/plant.

Gushers

Gelato genetics changed the game with unreal terpene profiles paired with hefty quantities of THC. But things didn’t stop there. Breeders leveraged this strain to create equally potent and scrumptious progenies, including Gushers, the indica-dominant offspring of Gelato #41 and Triangle Kush.

Gushers produces tall and dense colas equipped with a THC content of 24% and a battery of terpenes that produce cookies, earthiness, and fruit flavours. Toke on these buds, and you’ll find yourself feeling relaxed, uplifted, and bursting out in bouts of laughter.

Meet the World's First True F1 Cannabis Hybrids

All of our F1 cannabis hybrids are the result of crossing true inbred cannabis varieties, resulting in super-vigorous plants with increased potency and yields, as well as extremely uniform growth traits. At present, our F1 hybrids are all autoflowers (we already have feminized photoperiod F1 varieties in the making) and feature a variety of unique terpene and cannabinoid levels, including one high-CBD hybrid.

Get to know these varieties below and decide which ones you want to grow! Prepare to be amazed.

Epsilon F1

Epsilon F1 is the fastest of all of our F1 cannabis seeds, and combines genetic traits from some of the most notable cannabis varieties of the last decades, including Blue Dream, Blueberry, Amnesia Lemon Haze, and Black Domina. She features a rich aroma that invokes hints of fresh herbs and citrus alongside full-bodied earthy notes and a touch of blueberry and lavender. Epsilon F1 is a mid-strength cultivar, consistently producing solid levels of THC and a terpene profile dominated by myrcene, farnesene, ocimene, and limonene.

She is also a compact variety with a bushy, characteristic indica structure—ideal for anyone trying to keep a low-profile. Combined with her fast 30-day flowering time (60 days from germination to harvest), Epsilon F1 makes an excellent choice for stealthy or time-limited growers.

Medusa F1

Though she won't turn you to stone like the mythical goddess she's named after, Medusa F1 is bound to get you plenty stoned in her own special way. Combining genetics from inbred lines deriving from Sugar Magnolia, a thick and sweet indica, and American Beauty, a fast, fruity hybrid with a well-balanced high, Medusa F1 is a pleasure to grow and smoke. Her thick, frosty flowers consistently produce high levels of THC and CBG, as well as high concentrations of myrcene, ocimene, farnesene, and caryophyllene terpenes. The latter camp combine to create an aroma of fresh mint with an upfront peppery kick and hints of sweet fruit, berries, and tangy fuel.

Medusa F1 seeds produce elongated autoflowering plants with strong branches and well-spaced internodes. Plants regularly grow up to 80–85cm tall and boast a fast flowering time of just 42–45 days (72 days from germination to harvest).

Titan F1 is everything her name implies. This strong, resilient, and highly productive autoflower might not be a direct descendent of the Gods, but she's not far off—her genetics are derived from Blue Dream, Sugar Magnolia, and Amnesia. Titan F1 is a treat for the nose, starting during the flowering phase and continuing on through to the moment you light her up. She gets her aroma from a rich concentration of myrcene, farnesene, ocimene, pinene, bisabolol, and limonene—resulting in a pungent whiff of fruit, candy, and lemongrass.

Titan F1 also contains plenty of THC (more than any of our other F1 hybrids) and can be grown almost anywhere given her resilience and strength. These F1 seeds produce bushy plants that are ready to harvest just 73 days after germination.
