Rainbow Belts

If the names Archive Seed Bank and Purple City Genetics don't ring a bell, you might need to do a little more research into the best weed breeders of the past few years. Strains from both collectives come with a certain level of prestige and reputation, so it should come as anything but a surprise that their 2020 collab - Rainbow Belts - is an absolute belter!

A pure F1 hybrid of Zkittlez and Moonbow, Rainbow Belts is a very slightly Indica-dominant weed strain that not only carries on that Zkittlez legacy but, in many ways, surpasses it.

We all know that Zkittlez offshoots have dominated the new-school breeding scene for the past few years, especially in the USA, but Rainbow Belts really does offer up a gorgeously unique twist on the sweet-inspired hybrid formula.

So, what makes Rainbow Belts so special?

• The Awards - There are a few weed awards that actually mean something, and included in that list is Leafly's "Best Seed of the Year to Grow". And, wouldn't you know it, Rainbow Belts grabbed that mantle in 2020, the very same year it was released. It also took out first and second place in the Spannabis Champions Cup 2023. Let that sink in for a second. First and second. Wild!
• The Taste - Often earmarked as one of the top five tasting strains to ever grace the papers and bowls of stoners worldwide, Rainbow Belts is one that simply cannot be missed. The glorious balance of sweet, sour, fruit, anise, and mint flavours are just perfectly matched and result in a flavour profile that is somehow both unique and derivatively familiar.
• The Grow - You don't win Leafly's "Best Seed To Grow" category and not have some serious growing cred behind you. Rainbow Belts is definitely built for speed, with only a little stretch during the transition from veg to bloom. A flowering time of less than 9 weeks and a truly explosive growth pattern make this one of the easier strains to take from seed to smoke.
• The Effects - If you love a giggly, euphoric strain that is perfectly suited for social situations, then it's Rainbow Belts you're looking for. Starting out with a real creative and party vibes high, the average THC percentage of 20% means you're never fully floored but also never quite lost in the couch either. This strain strikes that lovely middle ground that so many strains try to achieve, but so few actually do.
