369 by Mtg Seeds
Confidential
369 is an indica cultivar developed by MTG Seeds, a breeder known for carefully selected West Coast hybrids. This strain is recognized for its pronounced resin production and is suitable for both extraction and whole flower consumption. It offers a balanced experience that can lean slightly uplifting or relaxing depending on the phenotype and harvest timing.
Appearance
Cured 369 buds are typically medium to large with a dense, compact structure, resembling golf balls or spears. The calyxes are tightly stacked, forming thick clusters that become heavily coated in large, milky trichomes as they mature. Its favorable calyx-to-leaf ratio contributes to efficient hand trimming.
The coloration of the buds ranges from lime to deep green, occasionally displaying lavender or plum hues when exposed to cooler night temperatures. Bright orange to amber pistils contrast with the abundant white resin. Under broad-spectrum lighting, bract coloration may appear more saturated due to increased anthocyanin expression.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of 369 is often described as bright and inviting, frequently featuring notes of citrus peel, sweet tropical fruits, or tangy nectar. Underlying this is a resinous, peppery character, with hints of creamy vanilla or pastry sometimes emerging in cooler cures. When the bud is broken apart, secondary aromas of pine sap, herbaceous spice, and faint fuel may become apparent.
Consumers often experience flavors of orange rind, cardamom, and cedar. The scent profile can shift from a sunny orange grove to a forest after rain, generally avoiding overly musky or skunky notes unless harvested late or stored improperly. Proper curing helps maintain the aroma's stability.
Effects
Consumers often seek out 369 for a clean, energetic onset that transitions into a smooth, body-centered finish. The strain is generally considered to provide balanced effects, capable of being slightly uplifting or moderately relaxing based on individual response, phenotype, and harvest maturity.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
369 is characterized as a high-THC, low-CBD strain, with THC content typically ranging between 18% and 26%. Total terpene content can approach or exceed 2.0% under optimal cultivation conditions. Key terpenes frequently noted include limonene and beta-caryophyllene, often supported by myrcene or ocimene.
Growing
369 is noted for its robust plant structure, responding well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training, making it suitable for SCROG setups. It exhibits strong lateral branching and can develop multiple well-formed tops. The strain is generally considered adaptable to various cultivation methods, including organic soil, coco, and hydroponics.
The plants are known for their mold resilience, a trait common to cultivars from the Mendocino region. Hermaphroditic tendencies are reported as low when environmental stressors like high temperatures (above 29°C late flower) and significant light leaks are controlled. Selection of vigorous plants early in the vegetative stage is recommended for uniform development.
Origins & Lineage
369 was bred by MTG Seeds, a breeder based in Mendocino County recognized for developing carefully selected West Coast hybrids. The exact parentage of 369 is not publicly disclosed by the breeder, a common practice for proprietary or limited-release projects to protect their work.
The strain exhibits phenotypic traits consistent with balanced hybrid genetics, including citrus-forward aromas and resin-drenched bracts, suggesting modern polyhybrid roots. Its breeding likely incorporates the Mendocino region's legacy of outdoor and mixed-environment plant selection, emphasizing vigor and mold resistance.
