Puna Budder
Also known as: Punna Butter, Puna Butter, Punna Budder, Budder
Overview
Puna Budder is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created by renowned breeder T.H. Seeds through crossing Hawaiian landrace genetics with Afghani indica. This legendary strain originated from Hawaii's volcanic landscapes and has earned its place among Pacific classics like Maui Wowie and Kona Gold. The name evokes the strain's defining characteristic: a buttery, greasy resin that coats calyxes with remarkable tenacity.
Puna Budder displays dense, spear-shaped buds adorned in vibrant olive-green colors with amber and brown hairs, covered in a thick layer of sticky, syrupy trichomes that glisten like fresh snow. The strain combines the tropical influence of Hawaiian genetics, which creates an invigorating aroma and flavor profile, with stable Afghani genes that reduce flowering time to a respectable 55-60 days. This makes it an ideal all-around plant for both novice and experienced growers.
The strain has gained significant attention for its unique sensory profile, featuring complex aromas of sweet butter, tropical fruits, and earthy undertones with hints of pine and citrus. Users report that Puna Budder delivers a well-balanced experience that begins with an uplifting cerebral high marked by euphoria and creativity, followed by a relaxing body effect that promotes physical comfort without sedation.

Growing Information
Puna Budder is considered an ideal all-around plant suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. The strain has a flowering time of 55-60 days (8-9 weeks), significantly shorter than typical Hawaiian genetics due to its Afghani influence. Plants grow to a medium height of 120-150 cm with a compact, bushy structure influenced by its indica heritage. Expected yield is 300-350 grams per square meter indoors or up to 12 ounces per plant outdoors. The strain prefers semi-humid conditions and is considered moderately easy to grow, making it suitable for beginners. Outdoor harvest typically occurs in late September to early October. Plants develop dense, resin-rich buds and benefit from proper training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield.
