It boasts substantial aromas of rotten fruit and gas alongside long-lasting, intense effects. Keep reading to learn all there is to know about Cap Junky. Strain History of Cap Junky Cap Junky was born after a collaboration between Seed Junky Genetics and Capulator, arguably two of the most renowned cannabis breeders in the US. Seed Junky Genetics is a brand mentioned on dozens of strain pages, and that's because it is responsible for creating many of the most famous US strains currently on the market. The brand is headed by breeder and grower JBeezy, whose experience dates back to the early 2000s when he began growing and breeding cannabis out of his garage. Today, JBeezy and Seed Junky Genetics are renowned for creating strains like Gelato, Wedding Cake, Animal Mints, and many more. Capulator, on the other hand, dates back to 1995 and is the genetics brand founded by a Cali grower and breeder known as The Capulator. Creator of the famous MAC (Miracle Alien Cookies), The Capulator remains super elusive but has become a renowned name in the cannabis industry. After collaborating, Seed Junky and Capulator created Cap Junky sometime between 2020 and 2021. In 2021, the strain launched, and a limited number of Cap Junky clones were made available to the public for $1,000 each. Since then, it has earned a cult following among cannabis enthusiasts and is beloved by both regular and medicinal users who treasure the strain's unique aromas and intense effects. Genetic Lineage of Cap Junky Cap Junky combines genetics from two flagship strains by Capulator and Seed Junky; Alien Cookies and Kush Mints. Below we'll take a closer look at the history and traits of both of these strains and how they have impacted the key attributes of Cap Junky. Alien Cookies is a hybrid strain bred initially by JAWS Genetics, which, in interviews, the Capulator touted as "the best flower many people will ever smoke." A cross of Forum Cookies (a unique cut of GSC) and Alien Dawg F4, Alien Cookies is a sticky plant that produces exceptionally long, dense, and eye-catching dark flowers. Its aroma is very earthy, with notes of dark vanilla as well as traditional nag champa incense, and its effects are euphoric, happy, and social. The Capulator has long been growing and experimenting with Alien Cookies genetics, which is also behind arguably his most famous creation—Miracle Alien Cookies. Cap Junky's second parent is Kush Mints, a flagship strain from Seed Junky. Combining genetics from Animal Mints and Bubba Kush, Kush Mints was the strain Seed Junky and Cookies used to create The Minntz brand. Apparently a 50-50 hybrid, Kush Mints is renowned for its potent effects that blend euphoric, creative cerebral elements with a pleasant body buzz. Medical marijuana patients (MMJ) often turn to this strain for relief from a wide variety of symptoms, and breeders, including Seed Junky and others, have gone on to use Kush Mints in the creation of other popular hybrids, including LA Kush Cake, Gush Mints, and more. Physical Characteristics of Cap Junky Cap Junky has been made available as a clone and in seed form through Seed Junky and Capulator clone/seed drops. Below, we've compiled information about the strain's unique physical appearance based on various grow reports.

Cap Junky plants are typically short and stocky with a lot of foliage and strong branches that stretch once plants enter flowering. As they bloom, Cap Junky plants take on a slightly darker colour. They produce small, dense flowers that look almost white under light due to their thick coating of trichomes. Cap Junky buds typically stay dark green with firey pistils, though they may also develop purple hues.

Most users describe the flavour of this strain as very smooth and gassy, though some also pick up on its notable flavours of black pepper and ripe mangoes. With such high concentrations of cannabinoids and terpenes, it's no wonder that Cap Junky delivers very strong effects. After a single hit, Cap Junky provides a 1-2 jab right to the head.
