Ethanol Strain Overview
Ethanol is a predominantly indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Lit Farms through crossing Motorbreath #15 and Zoap. This strain represents a sophisticated breeding achievement that combines the intense fuel-forward characteristics of Motorbreath with the fruity, dessert-like qualities of Zoap. Originally bred with a focus on high resin production and extraction efficiency, Ethanol has gained recognition for its robust genetics and consistent cannabinoid expression. The strain exhibits dense, compact buds typical of indica varieties, coated in a thick layer of crystalline trichomes that reflect its high potency and resin density. The careful selection of parent genetics ensures reliable yield and potency, with extraction studies showing up to 85% cannabinoid retention during ethanol-based extraction processes.
The visual appeal of Ethanol is striking, featuring dense green buds with a frosty appearance that signals high potency. The strain's breeding heritage contributes to its complex aromatic and flavor profile, blending the best characteristics of both parent strains. Users report that Ethanol delivers balanced effects that provide both physical relaxation and subtle cerebral stimulation, making it versatile for various consumption preferences. The strain has become particularly popular among connoisseurs and those interested in full-spectrum cannabis products due to its comprehensive cannabinoid and terpene profile.

Ethanol Strain Growing Information
Ethanol is an indica-dominant strain suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with a flowering time of 8-9 weeks (56-63 days). Indoor yields can reach 650g/m², while outdoor plants can produce up to 1100g per plant when grown in optimal conditions. The strain prefers a controlled environment with moderate difficulty level, making it suitable for intermediate to experienced growers. Plants exhibit bushy, compact growth typical of indica varieties with dense foliage. Optimal growing conditions include temperatures between 68-78°F with humidity levels maintained above 55% during flowering to prevent rot. The strain responds well to training techniques like LST and topping for dense, resin-rich colas.
