Crinkle Crunch
Also known as: ILL#72, ILL#72 - Crinkle Crunch
Overview
Crinkle Crunch, officially designated as ILL#72, is an F1 feminized autoflowering hybrid developed by Mephisto Genetics as part of their Illuminautos collection. This experimental strain represents a cross between Forum Stomper and Grape Crinkle, combining genetics from a Girl Scout Cookies descendant with complex grape-fruit terpene profiles. The strain was released as part of Mephisto's June 2023 Illuminautos Drop, serving as a testbed strain to identify promising genetics for potential inclusion in their main catalog.
As an Illuminauto strain, Crinkle Crunch is sold at a lower price point than Mephisto's main catalog items, with the understanding that these are untested experimental crosses aside from basic germination and quality control. The strain exhibits a 60% indica to 40% sativa genetic ratio, inheriting characteristics from both parent lines. Forum Stomper contributes Girl Scout Cookies genetics with relaxing, euphoric effects, while Grape Crinkle adds unique resinous production and fruity aromatics. This combination creates a hybrid that balances the sedating qualities of cookies genetics with the complex terpene profile of grape-influenced cultivars.

Growing Information
Crinkle Crunch is an autoflowering strain with a flowering period of approximately 60-70 days from seedling. As a hybrid with 60% indica genetics, it tends to stay relatively compact while producing multiple colas with frosty, resinous buds. The strain is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though specific yield expectations and growing difficulty are not established since it remains an untested Illuminauto variety. Growers should expect characteristics inherited from both parents: the robust structure of Forum Stomper and the resin production potential of Grape Crinkle.
