Black Runtz
Indica-Dominant Hybrid
You might already know and love the classic Runtz strain, but get ready to meet its darker, sophisticated sibling, Black Runtz. This indica-dominant hybrid strain is made by crossing parent strains Zkittlez and Gelato, two legends in the world of cannabis. A quick glance at its large, dense, and purple-green nugs shows that this strain definitely fits right into the Runtz family. Its sweet, fruity, and candy-like aroma blends layers of berries with earthy undertones and florals. Upon first taste, you’ll notice that the strain’s flavor isn’t too far off its aroma; enjoy a smooth smoke filled with sour and sugary goodness with each toke. As the high begins to settle in, you’ll likely feel a sense of heaviness spread throughout the body, locking you to the couch for a few hours of total bliss. Coupled with an average THC level of about 25%, these effects make Black Runtz a potent strain, especially for beginners. Still, it’s a favorite among medical cannabis users looking to treat symptoms linked to anxiety, chronic pain, and insomnia.
