Pink Peanut ( Pink Runtz x Peanut Butter Runtz) puts Runtz over Peanut Butter Runtz. One is Zkittlez crossed to Gelato #33, and the plant that defined the modern candy category; the other is Peanut Butter Breath crossed to Runtz, by 3rd Coast Genetics. Two very different plants, and the point of the cross is what sits between them. Thug Pug work from a very small stable of males. The consistency people talk about comes from that, not from luck.

Written this way, Runtz is the mother and Peanut Butter Runtz the pollen donor. Reversing a cross is not a formality; which plant carries the seed shapes what comes out of the pack.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Runtz. The candy plant the whole modern sweet-flavour category was built on. Its own cross is Zkittlez x Gelato #33. Rated intermediate and sensitive to humidity swings and temperature stress - keep the room steady.
• Father: Peanut Butter Runtz. Peanut Butter Breath crossed to Runtz, by 3rd Coast Genetics. Built from given as Peanut Butter Breath x Runtz, so Do-Si-Dos, Mendo Breath, Zkittlez and Gelato sit behind it. It is not a Thug Pug release - 3rd Coast made it - but it is built on Thug Pug's Peanut Butter Breath, which is why it turns up on this side of the catalogue so often.
• Why it is worth a pack rather than a look. The two sides are far enough apart that seedlings genuinely differ. That range is the product.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Two profiles that stay distinguishable rather than collapsing into one.

• The Aroma. Sugary fruit and sour berry over creamy vanilla, closing on a peppery gas note from the Runtz side, against savoury earth from the Breath side against sugary gas from Runtz from the Peanut Butter Runtz side.
• The Taste. Candy and berry with a creamy finish and a faint fuel edge up front, turning to nut and candy at once, which should not work and does through the exhale.

How the two sides differ

• Two different harvest dates. Eight to nine weeks, with fast plants at fifty-five to sixty days for Runtz, a normal Runtz-family window for Peanut Butter Runtz. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.
• The smell is a negotiation. Sugary fruit and sour berry over creamy vanilla, closing on a peppery gas note on one side against savoury earth from the Breath side against sugary gas from Runtz on the other. Neither wins outright in every seedling.
• Two frames in one pack. Runtz is manageable medium height with sturdy lateral branching; dense buds under a serious frost, deep greens and purples. Peanut Butter Runtz is dense and sticky, with the Runtz side lifting the colour and the Breath side supplying the weight. Decide which suits your room before you flip, because you get both.
• Opposite ends. Runtz is reported as balanced and even; Peanut Butter Runtz as strong and settling. The cross sits somewhere between and moves plant to plant.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Runtz is medium height and manageable, with sturdy side branching and dense frosted buds running deep green into purple. Peanut Butter Runtz is dense and sticky, with the Runtz side lifting the colour and the Breath side supplying the weight.
• 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. Runtz runs eight to nine weeks, with fast plants at fifty-five to sixty days, Peanut Butter Runtz a normal Runtz-family window. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Runtz as balanced and even.
• The Body. Peanut Butter Runtz is reported as strong and settling, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

Seeds from Thug Pug Genetics. The house style is savoury rather than sweet. While most of the market chased dessert flavours, Thug Pug went the other way and built a following on garlic, gas and funk. Original Thug Pug Genetics stock.
