Ball 'n Chain
Ball 'n Chain
Also known as: Ball n Chain
Overview
Ball 'n Chain is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Elev8 Seeds, created by crossing Magic Melon with Wedding Cake. This strain has since been retired and is no longer available for purchase. The genetics combine the sweet, fruity characteristics of Magic Melon - which was selected from a 10,000-plant phenotype hunt by Humboldt Seed Company - with the renowned frost and terpene production of Wedding Cake. Magic Melon was chosen for its sweet, fruity flavors reminiscent of ripe melon with tropical mango and berry notes, its high yield potential, and compact stature. Wedding Cake, the other parent, is legendary for its extreme resin production and rich terpene profile. This genetic combination aimed to create a strain that balanced exceptional flavor, yield, and terpene expression. As a hybrid strain, Ball 'n Chain was designed to exhibit characteristics from both parent lines, potentially offering both the relaxing effects associated with Wedding Cake and the uplifting fruity qualities of Magic Melon.

Growing Information
Ball 'n Chain was designed as a feminized seed variety with a flowering time of 8-9 weeks. The strain was bred to exhibit good yield potential, inheriting the high-yield characteristics from its Magic Melon parent while maintaining the resin production qualities of Wedding Cake. The Magic Melon genetics contribute to a shorter stature, making it suitable for indoor cultivation. However, specific growing difficulty, height expectations, and environmental preferences are not well-documented due to the strain's retirement status. Growers would have received 6 feminized seeds per packet when it was available.
