Mule Fuel
Mule Fuel
Also known as: The Mule Fuel
Overview
Mule Fuel is a heavily indica-dominant hybrid strain (90% indica/10% sativa) created by Michigan-based breeder Gromer Juana under Thug Pug Genetics through crossing GMO Cookies (also known as Garlic Cookies) and Lurch. First appearing in the early 2020s, this strain has gained recognition for its exceptionally high potency and distinctive fuel-forward aroma profile. The strain earned its name from its stubborn, mule-like strength and fuel-dominant terpene characteristics that deliver powerful, long-lasting effects.
Mule Fuel produces dense, resin-coated buds with a striking visual appearance featuring long spade-shaped olive green nugs accented by dark purple undertones and vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are generously coated with purple-tinted white crystal trichomes that give the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance. Plants typically exhibit a compact, stocky structure characteristic of indica genetics, with broad dark green fan leaves that develop beautiful deep purple hues at maturity. The strain's most notable feature is its complex and pungent aroma that combines gassy fuel notes with garlic, diesel, chemical, and earthy undertones, creating an unmistakable sensory signature that has made it highly sought after among cannabis connoisseurs.

Growing Information
Mule Fuel is considered relatively easy to cultivate, making it suitable for beginner to intermediate growers. The strain shows good resilience to hot and dry conditions and demonstrates natural resistance to common pests and diseases, particularly when grown indoors with controlled airflow. Flowering time is approximately 60 days for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Indoor plants typically remain compact at 3-4 feet in height and can yield 1-2 ounces per square foot or about 400 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can reach heights of 5-8 feet and produce similar yields of approximately 10-15 ounces (400 grams) per plant, with harvest typically occurring in October. The strain thrives in dry climates and benefits from low-stress training techniques, topping, and trimming to maximize yield. Growers should monitor for potential overcrowding due to the plant's bushy indica structure and maintain consistent nutrient feeding schedules to achieve optimal potency and resin production.
