In the cannabis world, Royal Queen Seeds stands out as an elite breeder, offering exceptional genetics that captivate growers and consumers alike.

Don’t believe us? The brand just won this year’s award for Best Seed Bank in 2023 at the EMJAYS. If that doesn’t put Royal Queen Seeds above the competition, I don’t know what will. But one thing’s for sure: they couldn’t have done it without you – the loyal growers who prioritize quality seeds and unmatched genetics.

In this article, we’ll explore some of the brightest jewels in their collection. From the fruity delights of Green Gelato to the unique potency of F1 Medusa and the mental stimulation of Shogun, we’ll discover why these products deserve a place in your garden and cannabis experience.

Also known as Gelato, Larry Bird, and Gelato #42, Green Gelato stands as a Soft Secrets Cup winner, created, as you might have guessed, in honor of the almighty Larry Bird. The combination of Thin Mint Cookies and Sunset Sherbet brings to life the richest and most delicious dessert cannabis strain.

Crossing Thin Mint Cookies with Sunset Sherbet, this Cookies hybrid represents a new era in the cannabis dessert universe.

From the first glance, the beauty of its orange buds, adorned with purple hues, arouses curiosity. Its aroma is a ballet of Kush, baked goods, and berries, luring enthusiasts into a world of sensory euphoria.

But Green Gelato is not just a pretty face. It is the epitome of cannabis haute cuisine, following professional artisanal practices to qualify as authentic Gelato. Its exclusive San Francisco Bay Area genetics are part of the unique recipe for this delight.

Green Gelato, a slightly Indica-dominant hybrid, responds enthusiastically to pruning and training. Plants grow to medium height with a high flower-to-leaf ratio, displaying compact flower clusters rather than long tails. The purple color show unfolds during the night, while cooler temperatures favor its development.

Green Gelato is ready for harvest in as little as 8-9 weeks on a 12-12 cycle. Whether grown organically or hydroponically, a thorough rinse reveals these gourmet buds’ full fragrance and flavor profile.

With THC levels of over 25%, Green Gelato will surprise and amaze in an unparalleled way. The senses are immersed in pleasure before you can process the tremendous potency of this almost narcotic “gas” you have just inhaled. The mind is charged with creative energy, a delight for the taste buds, while the body glides like a jellyfish.

By combining pure line genetics derived from Sugar Magnolia, a dense, sweet indica, and American Beauty, a fast, fruity hybrid beloved for its balanced, positive high, the result is an autoflowering F1 strain that offers fresh flavors, a unique cannabinoid profile, and bountiful yields.

Medusa F1 is a highly aromatic cultivar with a vibrant concentration of terpenes that offer notes of fresh mint with an initial spicy kick, backed by flashes of fresh fruits, berries, and a hint of sweet and sour fuel.

Her dense, frost-covered flowers consistently produce high levels of THC and CBG, along with elevated concentrations of myrcene, ocimene, farnesene, and caryophyllene. As a result, Medusa F1 elicits strong effects that relax and pity the body from head to toe (thanks to exceptionally high concentrations of myrcene and farnesene) while motivating the mind with a stimulating, creative, and motivating dose (thanks to high concentrations of ocimene).

Medusa F1 seeds produce elongated autoflowering plants with long, strong branches and well-spaced internodes. Plants typically grow up to 2.6 – 2.8 feet tall and boast a fast flowering time of only 42-45 days.

Enter the realm of Shogun, a descendant of the legendary strains Amnesia Haze and Gorilla Glue #4. This hybrid, with an ultra-potent THC content of 25%, perfectly balances Sativa and Indica characteristics, inheriting the best of both legendary strains.

Named after ancient Japanese warriors, Shogun embodies their unrestricted focus and power. Its cognitive effects are like a whetstone against a samurai sword, elevating attention and concentration to allow for extended work periods. This strain induces a zen-like contentment, ideal for tackling tasks such as writing an essay or meeting a deadline.

As a stimulant that resembles drinking a cup of coffee, Shogun is also perfect before physical activity, whether it’s trail running, skating, or jiu-jitsu. Its potent THC level makes it appealing to medicinal users seeking pain relief and mood enhancement.

Shogun proves relatively easy to grow, making it an excellent choice for beginners in photoperiod cannabis cultivation. Adaptable to a variety of conditions, it thrives both indoors and outdoors. Although it requires considerable nutrients, the extra effort is rewarded with generous harvests. Indoors, yields of up to 21.2 oz/m² can be expected after 9-11 weeks of flowering. Outdoors, the reward can reach up to 26.5 oz.

Shogun, the garden warrior, promises an uplifting mental journey and a satisfying growing experience for growers of all levels.
