Maui Moose (F) [ALPHA SERIES]

Filial Generation: F1 Flowering Time: 55-60 days Cannabis Type:  Sativa Hybrid Yield: Average Phenotypic Variation: Moderate/high Notes from the Grower(s): Don’t sleep on this one. Both literally and figuratively. A great daytime smoke, and a tank in the garden, this sativa mashup is one that is wholly worth your time. With incredible terpene profiles ranging from bright pine to rhubarb to cantaloupe, trichome production that rivals some of the best boutique strains out there, and a super sturdy and strong morphology, the Maui Moose has a lot of potential. Its moderate-to-high phenotypic variation was what kept it on our tester menu; however, the keeper phenos you’ll find here are some of the best we’ve ever seen. Primarily, it is the bud formation that differentiates the 3-4 phenotypes we observed:

1. Maui-Moose Hybrid Pheno: This is the one to look out for, and I cannot stress enough the potential we saw in this pheno. They stack on weight early and with vigor and finish with rock hard, huge conical colas that are packed with trichomes and densely stacked calyxes. These girls are tanks both in morphology and bud structure: fat, squat bushes with just the right amount of foliage for great airflow and maximum photosynthesis. Better yet, the quality of the flower is out of this world, making it a commercial dream crop.

2. Maui Pheno: The Maui Wowie 2.0 (Sticky Finger Seeds) dominant pheno looks a lot like the Maui-Moose hybrid, but its buds are a little smaller and aren’t as prone to stacking. They are more golf-ball in appearance, but just as gorgeous and pack on the trichomes and the terpenes equally well.

3. Moose & Lobstah Pheno: Unlike the Maui, the Moose & Lobstah (Dynasty Genetics) grows long cylindrical buds that can either stack exceptionally well, or in the worst case scenarios, can get pinched off and lack density and girth.

4. Pink Pistils Pheno: The Pink Pistil pheno was one of the most exciting to see, and a very rare find in any garden. Throughout its flowering life, this pheno developed bursts of pink pistils that retained their color straight through the end of flowering, eventually taking on a more amber hue right before harvest. This pheno was more Moose-dominant, with sugary, cylindrical buds that stacked really nicely.
