Rocket Pop
Rocket Pop
Also known as: Rocket Pop OG, Rocket Pop Kush
Overview
Rocket Pop is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (60% indica/40% sativa) that has gained recognition as a modern hybrid named after the iconic red-white-blue popsicle that defined countless summer afternoons. The strain was created through a genetic cross between Blueberry Cookies and Cherry OG BX, though multiple breeders and producers have adopted the name, leading to some variation in genetics and characteristics across different batches. The most documented version was created by the notable breeder Mr Grow Guy, who combined these two flavorful powerhouses to create a strain that delivers balanced hybrid effects.
The strain embodies advanced cultivation techniques and innovative breeding methods, representing a fusion of traditional and contemporary cannabis culture. Rocket Pop features fat heart-shaped dark olive green nugs with deep purple undertones, thin orange hairs and a coating of tiny, frosty white crystal trichomes. Despite the lineage ambiguities, Rocket Pop's reputation has cohered around a few constants: a crowd-pleasing candy-fuel bouquet, a balanced yet assertive potency profile, and eye-catching bag appeal. The strain has become a recognizable flavor family across legal markets since 2021, spreading quickly from West Coast shelves to Midwest and East Coast menus.

Growing Information
Rocket Pop has a flowering period of 8-10 weeks, which is fairly standard for indica-dominant strains. Indoor growers can expect yields of 200-300 grams per square meter, while outdoor growers can see yields of 300-400 grams per plant. The strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor environments allow for better control over conditions that affect its vibrant colors and rich scents. Plants reach a manageable height of 5-8 feet and are ideal for growers who have space for larger plants. It's easy to maintain with minimal fuss, though some light pruning and training can help boost yield. Effective pruning techniques are essential to manage the plant's dense foliage, improving air circulation and light exposure to the lower branches. The strain is considered of moderate difficulty to grow, making it suitable for both beginner and experienced cultivators.
