About Cap Junky

Cap Junky is an evenly balanced hybrid (50% sativa / 50% indica) bred by crossing Alien Cookies (MAC1 cut) with Kush Mints #11. The collaboration between Capulator (creator of MAC) and JBeezy of Seed Junky Genetics produced a strain with exceptional trichome coverage — the buds appear nearly white under light due to the density of capitate-stalked trichomes. The aroma is complex and pungent: sour fermented fruit, diesel gas, black pepper, cooling menthol, and sweet dough. The flavor profile features gasoline, black pepper, ripe mango, mint, and sour fruit rind. Effects begin with an intense cerebral euphoria and mental stimulation, followed by deep full-body relaxation without heavy sedation. THC levels regularly exceed 30%. Cap Junky quickly became one of the most sought-after modern cultivars, with clones initially selling for $1,000 each in 2021.
