Space Monkey Meds cultivates flowers of an out-of-this-world quality. Growing their strains in-house with expert levels of quality control and cultivation techniques, Space Monkey Meds pays close attention to every detail to offer the best possible cannabis buds to their customers. Their experienced growing team, personal knowledge of what patients are looking for and history working in Humboldt’s Emerald Triangle propel Space Monkey Meds’ flowers to the top of the cannabis game.
History:
While they began their brand name in 2016, Space Monkey Meds carries decades of growing experience and have delivered their home-grown marijuana to Bay Area patients since 2012 and dispensing their flower to plenty of local dispensaries. Through their delivery service, the founding team cultivated an intimate understanding of what patients were looking for, while their professional conduct and high-quality cannabis kept bringing dispensaries back for more. Space Monkey Meds’ founder was among one of the first to offer their product in a can, and they slowly built up a reputation that fit their high standards of excellence. Finally positioned for takeoff, Space Monkey Meds launched their brand in 2016 to match a name to the marijuana patients and dispensaries adored, and since they’re beginnings, they’ve spread to more collectives, visited more events and are spreading their flower to touch more aspects of the cannabis industry.
Process:
Space Monkey Meds prioritizes details, understanding that close care and attention are what set their flowers apart from the crowd. Using coco, indoor growing methods and hand-trimmed attention, they’ve tended their genetics for nearly a decade to find the ideal phenotypes of each of their marijuana strains.
Products:
After their many years of growing, Space Monkey Meds is proud to offer a varied selection of cannabis flower for patients and collectives to explore. Their bestselling strain is their Grateful Breath, with genetics hailing from Gage Green Genetics. Grateful Breath’s Indica heritage stems from their best phenotype of their OGKB and offers a highly medicating, enjoyable experience.
Lab Testing:
Space Monkey Meds proudly collaborates with SC Labs to test their cannabis flowers for quality assurance. Each batch of their flowers undergoes testing for THC content and pesticides.
Networks:
Currently, Space Monkey Meds’ flowers are local to Sacramento, spreading both their cannabis and canned flowers to Sacramento delivery services as well as brick-and-mortar dispensaries in Sacramento, San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Notable collectives include DTHC in Anaheim and Doctor’s Orders in Sacramento. Space Monkey Meds also partners with Paper Planes to create a line of high-quality concentrates.
There are multiple origin stories about Purple Kush, also called Purple Hindu Kush, and no shortage of products on the market that claim its name.
According to Northern California’s Dark Heart Nursery, the strain originated in the Oaksterdam neighborhood of Oakland, Calif. The breeder and other online sources suggest it’s a cross of a Hindu Kush female pollinated by a Purple Afghani phenotype and a landrace cultivar from Afghanistan.
Afghani strains typically have sedative effects, which could explain why Purple Kush is known for its soothing, sleep-aiding properties. The strain is also named for its vibrant violet color, which is due to acidity levels, its anthocyanin (pigment) content and/or cooler temperatures where the plant is typically raised.
