Mizz Frizzle (Haze Off x Sprinklez) crosses Panama Red to Sprinklez, the tropical Panamanian sativa that made its name in the late sixties against the house plant this catalogue is built on. Neither is a filler parent, which is why this pairing is worth a pack rather than a look. The house side is the known quantity here. The other side is the question the pack is asking.

Panama Red sits on the seed side here, Sprinklez on the pollen side. If you have seen these two names paired the other way round, that is a different pack and not this one.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Panama Red. The tropical Panamanian sativa that made its name in the late sixties. Parentage: a Panamanian landrace. For a stretch of the late sixties and seventies it was simply what the best weed meant, and that reputation is the only reason it survived to be preserved at all. It is worth being honest about what growing it involves: this is an equatorial plant that has never been bred for a tent. It wants the long finish, it stretches, and it will not behave like a modern hybrid. What it gives back is an effect the modern catalogue does not really make any more.
• Father: Sprinklez. The house plant this catalogue is built on. Parentage: given as Zkittlez x Titty Sprinkles. Sprinklez is itself built on Titty Sprinkles, so the two house parents are a plant and its own child.
• The point of the pairing. Neither parent needed rescuing. Putting them together is about what sits between them, not about fixing either one.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Expect the profile to move plant to plant rather than settle.

• The Aroma. Earth and citrus, with alpha-humulene and limonene leading from the Panama Red side, against sweet Zkittlez fruit sitting on something darker and more chemical from the Sprinklez side.
• The Taste. Citrus over an earthy base up front, turning to sweet fruit with a chemical edge underneath through the exhale.

How the two sides differ

• Two different harvest dates. Long, as equatorial sativas are - eleven weeks at the very least, and ten to sixteen is the usual range given for Panama Red, about fifty-six days, which is fast for Sprinklez. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.
• The smell is a negotiation. Earth and citrus, with alpha-humulene and limonene leading on one side against Zkittlez fruit sweetness over the diesel and berry of the Titty Sprinkles side on the other. Neither wins outright in every seedling.
• Build. On the Panama Red side: a pure or near-pure landrace sativa off the Pearl Islands and the Darien Gap, carrying the reddish colouring it is named for over vivid green flower. On the Sprinklez side: mostly indica; it runs indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse. Select early rather than trying to train your way out of it.
• They pull differently. Growers put Panama Red at cerebral, euphoric and energising, quick enough to border on psychedelic. A daytime plant and Sprinklez at relaxing, following the indica lean. Which end a plant lands on is the main variable.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Panama Red is a pure or near-pure landrace sativa off the Pearl Islands and the Darien Gap, carrying the reddish colouring it is named for over vivid green flower. Sprinklez is mostly indica; it runs indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse.
• Before the flip. Decide the shape now. These lines do not tidy themselves up once they are running.
• Flowering Time. The parents are not on the same clock. Panama Red runs long, as equatorial sativas are - eleven weeks at the very least, and ten to sixteen is the usual range given, Sprinklez about fifty-six days, which is fast. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Panama Red as cerebral, euphoric and energising, quick enough to border on psychedelic. A daytime plant.
• The Body. Sprinklez is reported as relaxing, following the indica lean, and that is the side supplying the weight here.
