A groundbreaking development in cannabis cultivation has recently taken place with the iconic cannabis seed bank, Barney’s Farm, and Doja Exclusive forming a strategic alliance. This partnership aims to produce unique cannabis genetics by combining Barney’s Farm’s global breeding expertise with Doja Exclusive’s pioneering flavors, creating a powerhouse duo in cannabis breeding. The joint venture has already produced two notable strains, RS11 x Banana OG and Cookie Casket.
For Barney’s Farm, a leading European seed producer, this collaboration marks a significant step into the rapidly growing US cannabis market. By teaming up with California’s cutting-edge breeders, Barney’s Farm is tapping into the demand for premium, genetically distinct strains in the US, where over 40 states now allow medical or recreational use of cannabis. This move is seen as a strategic response to the changing legal landscape.
The first strain to be released from this collaboration is RS11 x Banana OG, an Indica-dominant hybrid with a THC content of 29%. This potent strain has a rich citrus and tropical terpene profile with sweet banana undertones, offering strong physical relaxation effects. The unique terpene profile was developed by California flavor guru Ryan Bartholomew, who worked closely with Barney’s Farm’s breeding team. This collaboration showcases the potential of combining Barney’s Farm’s breeding methods with Doja Exclusive’s innovative approaches to create distinctive cannabis genetics.
The second strain, Cookie Casket, is an Indica-dominant hybrid created by crossing The Hearse Strain and Thin Mint Cookies, again in collaboration with Doja Exclusive. This masterful genetic combination has resulted in one of the most sought-after strains in the current cannabis market. With its impressive THC potency, Cookie Casket is a testament to the success of global collaborations in producing unique and desirable cannabis genetics.
