The names of the strains in the THCA section have become more abstract, but Cherry Gumbo is one of the more descriptive, with the flavor really being berry-candy forward, not marketers. It is described as an easy to enjoy, hybrid-ish, relaxing strain, that is not as good for a wake and bake.

If you want to know this one specifically: there is more than one gumbo-lineage strain under similar names (gumbo-runtz is another distinct cultivar) and it can be easy to compare the wrong gumbo. It’s a search problem when it comes to the naming of it; Blue Cherry Gumbo is its own phenotype and it’s not a product problem.

It is listed on DopeTHC as a Ugly Buds QP, which is the same genetic material and effect as their premium flower, but with less importance on the shape of the buds. The sweet, candy-like aromatics are fairly consistent with a standard cure, whereas not all fruit-oriented varieties have such a distinctive aroma that lasts long into the cure.

Even if a quarter pound of one strain is too big, it may be worth looking at DopeTHC’s larger Cheap Ounces selection instead — it’s a smaller investment, and the price differential (currently $75 to just under $200 based on strain) allows for a chance to sample a fruit-forward variety like this at ounce volume before you make a bigger commitment.

If you’ve looked up this strain and found different results from different sites, it’s more due to the naming convention in the market than to a lack of supply. It’s not unusual in itself, but is often misrepresented from store to store, making it difficult to compare.
