After our Peanut Butter Breath BX menu, our Kauai Boy menu will be the 4th menu of 2023. Kauai Boy = Kauai Electric x Haole Girl BX3. Kauai Electric is an old-school Kauai strain that was loved and still is loved to this day. It has an energizing Sativa-like effect that is nice when you’re wanting to get out and do things and are not wanting that sedative couch-locked effect. One thing we really like about this strain is how easy it is to grow; it is not light sensitive, it drinks well, and has a quick veg time; a no-brainer for breeding with. If that isn’t enough, it is also the most PM-resistant strain we have. It is almost impossible for it to get PM, so if you live in a place with high humidity or heavy rain, it is a winner.
Our Kauai Boy menu is our 4th menu of 2023
One characteristic we wanted to improve upon with the Kauai Electric mother was its visual appeal. Being an older strain, it doesn’t quite have the resin production and density that we have become accustomed to. Haole Girl is one of the strains we’re most known for and is on every livable continent in the world. It was bred by combining Wedding Cake with Crippy BX2 and Kauai Electric. It yields well, is potent, and has lots of bag appeal. Blending the Haole Girl BX3 with the Kauai Electric created a special strain that was perfect breeding stock for the Kauai Electric BX that we’ve been wanting to make for several years now. It took some time to create the groundwork for that to happen. The mothers we chose to cross this with will either improve upon the Kauai Electric mother or will ideally acquire the desired traits from the Kauai Electric mother.
This is the first Kauai Electric menu we’ve made and will create the first Kauai Electric BX from 808 Genetics, one of our most requested unmade strains since 2019. We will also create the following strains:

Cherry Berry Pie #1 was @rabid_hippie’s favorite terp in the greenhouse
The Stud
The male we selected was robust with great branching. He had a strong skunk essence with creamy notes. He had about a 70/30 split between expressing Kauai Electric traits and Haole Girl BX3 traits, leaning more toward the Kauai Electric with his structure, terpene profile, and resilience, but with a touch of Haole Girl’s creamy terpene profile in there too. This plant will pass on Vanilla Cream Skunk vibes to all of its offspring, creating a great fusion of those aromas and flavors.
The Kauai Boy male was beautiful and had a strong aroma with creamy notes
Kauai Girl Phenos
We put out several Kauai Girl phenos, 5 in total, with 3 main phenos. These plants showed resemblance to the mother and father depending on the pheno. The #2 pheno was our favorite as it had the most vigor and best terpene profile.
The phenos showed the following characteristics:
- #1: Vanilla cream skunky gas (more skunk) terpene profile, Kauai Electric-dominant pheno
- #2: Vanilla cream gas with skunky electric terpene profile, 50/50 pheno, most vigorous, tallest and widest pheno, grew like Kauai Electric, favorite
- #4: Haole Girl-dominant, grew just like Haole Girl, more space between the nodes
- #5: Smaller buds than other phenos, nice skunky terps
- #6: Skunky terps like Kauai Electric with similar structure, Kauai Electric-dominant
Kauai Girl Pheno #2 was our favorite as it was a 50/50 pheno as well as the most vigorous and best smelling pheno
African Haze Phenos
For our first collab with @oninoodles, we also put out several African Haze #11 x Tahitian Lime phenos, 5 in total, with 3 main phenos found within the seeds we popped. This is one of his unreleased strains that he sent us, requesting we breed with our older local strains like the Crippy or Kauai Electric. We were initially planning on selecting a female; however, after looking through the seeds, we liked the diversity it brought to our garden and decided to breed with multiple females to lock in multiple Haze characteristics. This strain is a Sativa hybrid with Sativa structure, but with an Indica bloom time as they finished at the same time as our other Indica-dominant strains. We have also decided to breed with a male, which is a menu that will be finishing shortly after the Kauai Girl menu.
Our favorite pheno was the #5 for most of bloom due to its classic Haze sandalwood terps, but at harvest, we really ended up liking the #1 as well as it had a sugary lime aroma with just a hint of sandalwood, really similar to a Lime Starburst.
The phenos showed the following characteristics:
- #1: Biggest pheno, vigorous, Lime Starburst terpene profile with just a hint of sandalwood, favorite
- #2: Lime sandalwood with a hint of basement funk terpene profile, tall, lots of branching
- #3: Strong lime with a hint of sandalwood terpene profile, tall, lots of branching
- #4: Sandalwood terps, Haze structure, tall and wide but not as big as some of the other phenos
- #5: Shorter than other phenos, smelled strongly of classic Haze and Sandalwood, favorite

African Haze Pheno #2
African Haze Pheno #3
African Haze Pheno #4
African Haze Pheno #5
Moana’s Gift Phenos
We had 3 phenos of Moana’s Gift also included with this menu, which we’re also really excited about as it is a high CBD strain with proven test results. One pheno tested at 31% THC and 15% CBD, a true 2:1 ratio. We loved the mothers so much that we are making an entire Moana’s Gift menu right after the African Haze menu. Early in bloom, around week 3 or 4, it was a noticeable terpene profile in the greenhouse, unique and pleasantly intoxicating.
The Moana’s Gift (#2) has amazing potential to be medicinal-quality with multiple prominent cannabinoids in its genetic composition
Seed Plants
We put several of our recent crosses out to bloom with this menu and were excited to see and smell new strains, all of them really impressing us.
