Fruit Drops is a Runtz S1, that is, a Runtz that has been backcrossed with itself - in 2023, it is one of the most sought-after cannabis strains out there, and this has only increased thanks to its near-universal acceptance among 420 celebrities and its cloning history. The strain is not difficult to grow and is best suited for indoor growers or greenhouses, outdoors it should be grown in warmer climates to reach its full potential.
Runtz is one of the best known and most counterfeited genetics in the business today, but thanks to the Plug Seed Banks you can find some gems that are very similar to the original cutting. Fruit Drops was bred by crossing the infamous Gelato 33 Breeders Cut with Zkittlez and has a lovely unique candy, sherbert and gas-terp profile that smells like a delicious fruity funk, rich with notes of sugar and syrup. The story behind the Runtz strain is uncertain, the subject of much rumour and cannabis folklore, but one thing is certain: it is one of the finest strains in the modern gene pool.
Runtz is the de facto cannabis strain in hip-hop and rap music today, so it only makes sense that the team is made up of rappers like Yung LB and Dollars Up Nero, working with cannabis and hip-hop mogul "Berner".
Lineage: Runtz x Runtz (S1) Genetics: Indica / Sativa Flowering Time: 8 - 9 weeks Smell: fruity funk, sugar, syrup THC: 21%
The Plug Seedbank comes out of The Plug BCN, which is a cannabis café in Barcelona that a lot of people already know about. From there it turned into a seed company, kind of a natural step for the group. They work with breeders and growers who test the strains first, so by the time seeds are sold they have already been through a good amount of trial.

Over the years they have picked up a fair share of cannabis cup prizes, and that is one reason people talk about them so much. Their releases in 2020 made a bit of noise in the industry, the kind that people who watch new strains closely tend to notice. Names like Blue OG Sherbert, Spumoni, and Strawnana Wifi have already taken prizes and will probably grab more down the line.
