Retro Wedding by Mephisto Genetics
Ruderalis × Sativa
Retro Wedding is an autoflowering hybrid cultivar developed by Mephisto Genetics, a breeder recognized for producing high-quality autos. It is characterized by a sativa-dominant effect profile, supported by its ruderalis and sativa genetic heritage.
Appearance
This autoflower typically reaches a medium stature, between 60-100 cm, and produces multiple main colas. Its leaves are sativa-like with narrower leaflets. The buds develop a frosted appearance with orange pistils, and cooler temperatures may induce lavender hues in some plants. Bud density is moderate, offering good airflow.
Aroma & Flavor
Retro Wedding offers a sweet, confectionary aroma with notes of citrus zest and floral spice. Growers often detect hints of vanilla cream and sweet dough, complemented by lemon-lime. The flavor profile features lemon tartness, creamy sweetness, and a clean herbal finish, with some experiencing a peppery warmth or bakery-like crust.
Effects
As a sativa-forward hybrid, Retro Wedding is reported to provide an uplifting and focusing experience. Users may feel a sense of calm, creativity, and euphoria. The effects are generally suited for daytime use, offering a functional lift without excessive sedation.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This strain is expected to be THC-dominant, with reported levels typically between 18-24% and CBD below 1%. The terpene profile is often characterized by a combination of limonene, beta-caryophyllene, and linalool, contributing to its citrus and sweet notes. Other terpenes like myrcene, pinene, humulene, and ocimene may also be present.
Growing
Retro Wedding is an autoflower, meaning it flowers automatically without a change in light cycle, typically finishing within 70-85 days from germination. It is considered moderately easy to grow, suitable for home cultivation, and generally yields well for an autoflower.
