This enchanting indica-dominant hybrid has captured the hearts of cannabis enthusiasts with its colorful appearance, fruity aroma, and soothing effects. 


In this strain review from experts at The Bluntness, we'll explore everything you need to know about Zkittlez, from its genetic origins to its tantalizing taste and therapeutic potential. 

Plus, we'll delve into recent developments from a legal battle over its name. So, let's embark on a flavorful journey and discover why Zkittlez has earned its place in the cannabis hall of fame.

Zkittlez Marijuana Strain Genetics

To truly appreciate Zkittlez, we must first uncover its genetic lineage. This indica-dominant hybrid is the result of a carefully crafted fusion between Grapefruit, Grape Ape, and a mysterious third strain that remains shrouded in secrecy. 

Its accolades include triumphs at the Emerald Cup California, the Best Indica Cannabis Cup San Francisco, and the Best Indica Cannabis Cup Michigan.

Zkittlez Strain Aroma and Flavor

The name Zkittlez is more than just a clever moniker; it perfectly encapsulates the strain's sensory experience. Zkittlez tantalizes the taste buds with an explosion of fruity and sweet notes, underscored by a subtle hint of sourness. Its distinct grape undertones are a testament to its illustrious lineage. When you indulge in Zkittlez, expect a smoking experience that is both light and smooth, with occasional aromas of diesel undertones as you inhale its aromatic bouquet.

How to Grow Zkittlez Cannabis Strain

While Zkittlez might be a treasure trove of flavor, finding its seeds can be an elusive quest. This strain primarily propagates through clones, which are notoriously hard to come by. When cultivating Zkittlez, be prepared for a flowering period spanning 8 to 9 weeks.

In terms of growth characteristics, Zkittlez falls squarely in the middle ground, with moderate height, bushiness, yield, and growing difficulty. While indoor cultivation is the preferred method, you can also nurture this strain outdoors with success.

Zkittlez Marijuana Strain Appearance

The visual allure of Zkittlez is another one of its claims to fame. The strain's buds, akin to the beloved candies that inspired its name, exhibit vibrant and multicolored hues. 

Expect a kaleidoscope of green and purple, accentuated by generous splashes of orange from the pistils and a snowy blanket of white trichomes. Zkittlez buds are known for their substantial size and remarkable density.

Zkittlez Cannabis Strain Effects and Conditions

Now, let's delve into the heart of Zkittlez—the effects it offers and the conditions it can alleviate. Zkittlez is your go-to choice for a late evening or nighttime indulgence. Upon consumption, its effects creep in swiftly, commencing with a focused head high before gently cascading into a soothing body experience. 

While it's not uncommon to experience a case of "couch lock," Zkittlez encourages you to embrace relaxation, making it best suited for leisurely evenings rather than engaging in strenuous activities.

In terms of therapeutic potential, Zkittlez is renowned for its effectiveness in addressing various ailments. It has shown promise in providing relief from nausea, loss of appetite, and a spectrum of aches and pains. However, it's essential to note that Zkittlez isn't your run-of-the-mill strain. With a THC content reaching up to 25%, it packs a potent punch. 

This level of potency may raise a cautionary flag for individuals with lower tolerance or those prone to paranoia. On the flip side, seasoned users may revel in the intriguing alterations Zkittlez can induce in time perception, video experiences, and audio sensations.

Zkittlez: A Strain by Any Other Name

Zkittlez, or variations thereof, such as Zkittles, has been the recent subject of debate and legal battles that have garnered attention. 

Mars Wrigley, the maker of Skittles candy, initiated a lawsuit against Terphogz, the creators of "Zkittlez" cannabis strain. Wrigley claimed trademark infringement and sought to prohibit the use of the letter "Z" alone or combined with any letters or numbers. Despite rejecting Wrigley's demands as unsupported by federal trademark law and a violation of their first amendment rights, Terphogz agreed to a settlement.

Under the settlement, Terphogz ceased using the name "Zkittlez" and its "circle Z" branding but retained the name "The Original Z" and its iconic "Z" logo. The legal battle underscores the complexity of trademark issues in the cannabis industry.

Legal battles aside, in the world of cannabis, Zkittlez stands out as a delectable treat for the senses. Its genetic heritage, bursting with fruity aromas and flavors, has made it a beloved choice among both novices and seasoned cannabis connoisseurs. 

While its effects offer relaxation and euphoria, its recent legal saga reminds us of the intricacies and challenges faced by cannabis brands in navigating trademark issues as well as using branding and/or marketing that may be attractive to children as well.

Zkittlez delivers its own kind of sweetness—one that tantalizes the palate and provides a cozy, comforting embrace. 

Whether you're seeking relief from physical discomfort or simply looking to unwind after a long day, Zkittlez invites you to savor the flavors and enjoy its soothing embrace.

The Evolution Of The Classic Stoner Character in Movies and TV


It’s taken TV and movies featuring stoner characters a long time to catch up with the reality of marijuana culture in the United States. Historically, Hollywood has ignored cannabis all together, then demonized it, misrepresented it, and used it as an easy punchline, before finally giving way to the more nuanced, low-key reality of life in a country where over half its states have legalized the drug for medical or recreational use.

Here, The Bluntness charts the changing depiction of marijuana users in film and TV over the last 85 years or so, and digs in to what these stoner movies might tell us about the changing cultural attitudes around pot in pop culture.

Weed Makes Me Introspective: When Cannabis Causes Us to Reconsider Our Life Choices

Pot Prompts Self-Reflection

Being stoned comes with a wealth of side effects – some of which are just part of the fun, while others have been known to get smeared all over a person’s psyche, causing them to gawk out the window every thirty seconds to see if the cops are coming up the stairs.

Perhaps the least discussed byproduct of the bud, however, is its uncanny ability to send the user into a maddening state of introspection. Cannabis can make individuals more attuned to their bodily sensations, emotions, and inner thoughts, which can contribute to this introspective state. Weed can often inspire the high-minded to start questioning their life choices, setting them on a path of self-doubt, self-loathing, and self-destruction.

Sex on Shrooms: How to Prepare Yourself

If you've tripped on psilocybin (a.k.a., magic mushrooms) before, you're already well aware what an intense experience it can be. And if shrooms can take an average activity like listening to music to an entirely different universe, you can probably imagine what sex on shrooms might feel like.

As intense and amazing as mushroom sex can be, it can also be an incredibly negative experience if you're not careful. Most psychotropic substances are best experienced when you curate the right set and setting, and sex on magic mushrooms is no different.
