Freakshow

Freakshow by Humboldt Seed Co.

Freakshow was specially bred by Humboldt breeder Shapeshifter. While it debuted in 2019, Humboldt Seed Co. recently relaunched this revised version of Freakshow with a completely new (and even crazier) array of grow traits. She boasts fern-like leaves, beautiful, resin-rich orange buds, and sativa-dominant genetics. Thanks to the meticulous breeding work of Shapeshifter and the rest of the team at Humboldt Seeds, this unique cannabis mutation is now available to growers everywhere.

As you grow Freakshow (affectionately referred to as Cannabis Lusus Monstra), you'd be forgiven for thinking you've been cheated and sold seeds of some kind of weird ornamental tree. Besides her stem, there's really nothing about this strain that says cannabis (at least not while it vegetates); her leaves look like those of a fern or Chinese jasmine, and her structure (which is very top-heavy, with little to no foliage along the lower parts of the plant) almost looks like that of a bonsai tree. Grow her alongside other cannabis strains and you'll likely notice Freakshow's underlying sativa dominance in her slim branches and tendency to stretch. It's only once she starts flowering that you'll be reminded you're actually growing weed. Her bloom cycle lasts roughly 65 days, and Humboldt Seed Co. claims she produces modest harvests.

Beneath her mutated leaves, Freakshow will reveal beautiful, bright green buds adorned with stunning orange pistils and a thick coating of resin. Her aroma is very tropical, with notes of mango and ripe peaches, and slight sour undertones. Light her up, and Freakshow will hit you with up to 18% THC and a rich mix of terpenes that activate the mind while relaxing the body. Expect to feel tingly, talkative, and social before enjoying a mellow, lingering stone.
