To learn more about the strain’s genetic lineage, potential uses, and cultivation details, keep reading.

History of the Space Runtz Strain

Space Runtz is one of several strains created by the infamous Pacific Coast breeder Tiki Madman. Known not just for his elite-tier cannabis, but also his unique marketing materials, Tiki (originally from Michigan) has been breeding for over a decade. However, it's rumored that he germinated his first seeds at the tender age of thirteen.

Outside of the Madman’s extensive breeding career, not much else is known about his selection process or techniques. However, what most cannabis lovers are drawn to is his unique approach to marketing. On display via the Tiki Madman Instagram page (@tikimadman), loud fonts, brash colors, and some incredibly satirical photoshopping definitely make Tiki strains stand out from the crowd. Imagine Steven Crowder memes, a woman riding a turkey, and 90s-style movie posters, and you’re somewhat close to understanding the creative genius of Tiki Madman.

As for Space Runtz, its impact on the cannabis scene is only just beginning. Still, that hasn’t stopped the strain from winning 1st place at the Connoisseur Cup Denver (Best Med Indica) and 2nd place at the same cup event for overall medical flower.

Genetic Lineage of Space Runtz

What we do know about the development process of Space Runtz is that two high-octane parent strains were used to create this balanced hybrid—Runtz and Candy Rain. While Candy Rain is a lesser-known indica from Cookies Fam, Runtz is a globally recognized strain that’s influenced hundreds of modern cultivars.

To anyone remotely involved in the cannabis industry, Runtz needs little introduction. The brainchild of California-based growers, the "Runtz Crew", Runtz is a balanced hybrid boasting sweet, sugary flavors, THC levels of around 24%, and an uplifting cerebral high. With a lineage that includes Gelato and Zkittlez, Runtz has spawned countless progeny, including (but by no means limited to) Tropical Runtz, Rainbow Runtz, and Pink Runtz S1.

Even with Runtz's genetics, the Tiki Madman still needed at least one other contributor—he selected Candy Rain. The offspring of London Pound Cake and Gelato, Candy Rain delivers on its name with a flavor reminiscent of citrus and fruity berries, alongside hints of pepper and hops thanks to terpenes caryophyllene and humulene, respectively. Aside from the moreish flavors, Candy Rain delivers a respectable THC level of around 19%, which, while not the most potent compared to other modern strains, results in a soothing and mentally calming high.

Physical Characteristics of Space Runtz

A dominant characteristic of Space Runtz is its large calyxes, which can be enhanced even further with advanced training techniques such as main-lining. Concentrate enjoyers are also in luck, as flowers typically develop a thick layer of resin—a clear sign of the plant's Runtz heritage. Space Runtz's hybrid nature means you’ll get a mix of indica and sativa characteristics; in this case, medium-sized plants with large internodal spacing and broad leaves.

Properties and Effects of Space Runtz

While it’s common for hybrids to blend cerebral and physical effects, few strike the delicate balance of Space Runtz. The first few inhales not only showcase the strain’s violet, earthy, and pear-like flavors, but each hit uplifts users with consistent waves of euphoria. Many describe the first few hours with Space Runtz as an energetic ride bursting with creative influence—ideal for a wake-and-bake session. However, as the experience progresses, the strain leans more heavily on its indica heritage, soothing mind and body.

Uses of Space Runtz

Thanks to the strain’s balanced nature, its potential uses are extensive. From wake-and-baking to boosting creativity—there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy Space Runtz. The key to capitalizing on this diverse range of effects is timing. Because the high starts with waves of creativity and euphoria, you’ll want to focus on activities such as painting, writing, and project management as soon as you feel those first hits take hold.

Depending on your tolerance, the second phase of Space Runtz’s high may take a couple of hours to manifest. However, if you’re new to cannabis, then expect a rapid descent into sleepiness, relaxation, and mental decompression. In fact, with some careful planning, Space Runtz is ideal for helping you get chores done around the house after a long day, before guiding your mind and body into a peaceful slumber.

Meanwhile, reports from therapeutic cannabis users claim that Space Runtz's mood-lifting embrace could be beneficial for symptoms and conditions such as:

• Stress

• Anxiety

• Insomnia

• Low mood

• Chronic pain

Note that in addition to common THC-related side effects such as cotton mouth and red eyes, Space Runtz may also give rise to feelings of lethargy, headaches, and anxiety when used in large amounts or by novices.

Cultivation and Production of Space Runtz

Space Runtz's cultivation details are limited. It’s understood that plants reach medium–tall heights with very large calyxes and a decent coating of resin. Flowering time indoors is estimated to be 56–63 days, while outdoor growers should plan to harvest in late September to early October, depending on the climate. Yields are also said to be very respectable, though there are no reliable figures to confirm this.

Unfortunately, Space Runtz seeds do not appear to be currently available for purchase. If you do get your hands on Space Runtz clones/seeds, however, it's worth noting that it adapts well to most training techniques.

Space Runtz: Tiki Madman Meets Classic Runtz Genetics

From its Runtz heritage to the marketing genius of Tiki Madman, Space Runtz has all the resources it needs to achieve global renown. The limit to its influence remains the lack of available seeds—and specific cultivation details—but with several cup wins under its belt already, it shouldn’t be long before the hype starts to reach home growers. If you’re a fan of traditional Runtz flavors and a balanced high that both uplifts and soothes, then Space Runtz is a solid choice.
