Information on Apple Lobster
Apple Lobster is a feminized photoperiod variety developed by Cipher Genetics in collaboration with Maine Trees. Launched in 2024, it arrives preceded by the recognition of its mother line at the East Coast Zalympix 2023, where Blue Lobster took home three awards, including Best Terpenes. A debut that doesn't go unnoticed.
Genetics: the meeting between sweetness and terpene potency
Apple Lobster is the result of crossing Sour Gumball —a balanced hybrid of Bubblegum x Fireball— with Blue Lobster, Maine Trees' own selection from Compound Genetics' celebrated cross of Apples and Bananas with Eye Candy (also known as Facade). The result is an indica-leaning hybrid that inherits the best of both lines: the fruity and gassy expression of Blue Lobster and the sweet, resinous base of Sour Gumball. Some phenotypes also add a paint or marker terpene signature that distinguishes it within its own line.
Cultivation: fast, adaptable and generous in resin
Indoors, Apple Lobster completes its flowering in just 54 to 56 days, making it an attractive option for those seeking agile cycles without sacrificing quality. It produces dense flowers with notable trichome coverage. Its difficulty level is moderate, making it accessible both for experienced growers and those taking their first steps with premium American genetics varieties.
Outdoors, harvest occurs in late September or early October, adapting well to different climates and environments. Its cultivation versatility —both indoor and outdoor— reinforces its profile as a practical variety oriented toward visible results from the first run.
Aromas, flavors and effects: candy-like experience with complex background
Apple Lobster's aromatic profile revolves around caramelized apple and sweet candy, with background notes that evoke diesel and a light hash. In certain phenotypes appears that characteristic paint or solvent terpene that, far from clashing, adds a layer of complexity that fans of American genetics will immediately recognize. On the palate, the experience continues along the same line: sweet, fruity and with fuel touches that lengthen the aftertaste.
Apple Lobster's effects are relaxing and euphoric in equal parts, with a creative component that invites both active rest and social enjoyment. Its THC content is above average, positioning it as a suitable choice for recreational consumption in moments of leisure or disconnection.
