Archive descriptors

Record notes

Only descriptors supported by both the archive record and supplementary cultivar data are listed here.

Genetics

Reported sensory and character descriptors vary by phenotype, batch and individual experience. They are not medical guidance.

Genetics and lineage

The recorded parent strain is Chocolope. X Star Killer. Source disagreement should be treated as part of the cultivar's naming history rather than flattened into a false certainty.

Background

Bred by Highpants Genetics, Melon Face is Chocolope X Star Killer, with the former bringing heady sativa effects to the body-led melty high of the latter.

Appearance

This bud has an organic-looking structure and seems to have good development, although I was not working with the biggest sample. What I had was sticky and felt like there's plenty of resin. The nugs have been hand-trimmed.

The vibrant green colour of this bud is broken by the bright orange pistils which are highly visible.

Aroma

The smell of the Melon Face is complex, but definitely leaning towards an OG pungent gas with gluey undertones. It seems to warm my nostrils when I smell this one.

Breaking open the buds more notes emerge - melon/dank fruit notes and sweetness creep into the pungency. This one has a unique aroma.

Taste

This delivers a super smooth smoking experience through the bong, helped, I was sure, by the grow.

The taste of Melon Face is surprisingly somewhat different to the aroma, or at least the main notes which come through when smoked and vaped are more like a fresh menthol with cooling flavour.

Perhaps more would be present in the taste with a longer cure, but the smoothness of the smoke and the different notes in the flavour are interesting for sure!

Effects

Melon Face is a hybrid strain, delivering a strong and long-lasting high that I was feeling for the next couple of hours. As I had not smoked this one before it put me into a sort of dream-like state, making for an interesting dog walk.

I like the effects of this one during the day but it is on the strong side, so I was unsure whether it will induce productivity in everyone who smokes it.

Conclusion

This was an enjoyable smoke with something different and an interesting UK-made 2020 hybrid
