This week’s new strains are a mix of old and new genetics, beginning with the sativa landraces known as “Aceh” in Indonesia. Also new to the Explorer is the sativa Sweet Cheese which mixes genetics from two classic parent strains. Middlefork hails from Washington state, where it was originally grown between the fork of two rivers. Grape OX was among the winners at this year’s Michigan Medical Cannabis Cup, and Khalifa Kush is an OG strain that was built to rap artist Wiz Khalifa’s specifications. Such privilege.
