History of The Mac And Cheese Cannabis Strain Mac and Cheese is a hybrid cannabis strain created by Capulator, an extremely elusive yet highly respected US breeder. Little is known about Capulator and his origins, though he is rumored to have been breeding since the late 1990s and is said to have started making a name for himself, like many breeders of his time, on forums such as Rollitup, THC Farmer, and IC Mag. Cap readily produces new strains which can be bought from the Capulator website, as well as from other seed retailers. To date, some of his most popular strains include: • The Mac/Mac1 • Freezer Burn • Cap Junky • Big Chillz • Mac and Cheese Genetic Lineage of Mac And Cheese Weed Mac and Cheese is a hybrid strain created by crossing The Mac and Alien Cheese.

A cross of Alien Cookies, Starfighter, and Columbian genetics, The Mac (AKA Miracle Alien Cookies) is a potent, aromatic cross treasured by growers. In interviews, Capulator has said that the exact cross that birthed The Mac was Alien Cookies F2 and Miracle (Starfighter X Columbian, a line Cap had been working on for some time). In the same interviews, Capulator admits to making the cross as an attempt to preserve the high and aromas of his unique Alien Cookies F2 pheno while improving its growth rate and yields. After making the cross and hunting down the perfect pheno, Capulator officially launched The Mac in 2016 and it's been revered by growers everywhere ever since. According to cannabis folklore, there are 2 varieties of The Mac in circulation; Cap's Cut or Mac 1, a unique clone-only variety passed down by Capulator to growers/breeders he deems worthy, and The Mac, which is seed stock available to the general public.
