Dutch Treat has spent decades floating around Amsterdam coffee shops with a Canadian backstory nobody can completely pin down. The old-school cultivar is most often tied to British Columbia breeder Jordan of the Islands and a cross of Northern Lights and Haze, though neither part of its origin story is settled enough to call case closed.
The flower keeps things properly old school: sharp pine, sweet herbs, citrus, and earthy funk instead of frosting and candy. Dense green buds pile on sticky trichomes and orange pistils, while the suspected Haze influence gives the strain a brighter edge than its indica-heavy reputation suggests.
Word around the dispensary is that Dutch Treat hits upstairs first, bringing an uplifted, euphoric, talkative buzz before the heavier relaxation catches up. The genetics may have lost their paperwork, but the weed clearly didn't lose its passport.
Novice growers will have a relatively easy time with Dutch Treat, as this plant is said to require minimal care and is highly resistant to diseases and pests. The bushy, short cultivar flowers during an eight-to-nineweek period and by late September when grown outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere or March if grown in the Southern Hemisphere.
According to Jordan of the Islands, Dutch Treat produces high yields despite being short and stocky in stature.
