Now, three years after it first dropped, MAC has done awesomely well. It doesn’t smoke quite as good as the Alien Cookies, but it makes up for it in every other category from a production perspective.” I don’t lose my train of thought or get stuck when I smoke it. It puts me in a really good mood, allows me to be productive, talkative. “The high is on the uplifting side for me, but of course highs are subjective. “The taste translates, and lingers,” he said. Freezer Burn puts everything to shame, but sucks in the yield department also,” he said.Ĭap went on to describe what the best MAC looks like to him and said when done right, MAC smells kind of like sour cherry Yoplait yogurt. “I thought I would never find anything better, but a few months later I did end up finding the Freezer Burn, which is a MAC1 cross. But not long after, the hits kept coming. “I love hunting for that next winner, and first it was Alien Cookies, and then the MAC just blew it out of the water,” he said.Īt the time, he thought the MAC was going to be his magnum opus. “Januis when I popped the first beans of MAC.”Īfter a few weeks, he knew he was on to something. “Pollinated at day 25, harvested at day 63, pulled the beans a month later, grew them out… that took about four months, so total time maybe six months or so,” Cap said of the full propagation effort. He ran the Alien Cookies twice before making the decision to pollinate it. The Miracle 15 had already been in Cap’s breeder lineup for a year. “The combination is really good.”Ĭap knew he had everything he needed for the cross, despite having only worked with both lines of genetics for a bit. “The Miracle male outcrosses come with better yields and growth rates,” Cap said. The cross was a home run and the MAC1 was exactly what he was looking for out of the 10 seeds that he popped. Next came the big moment when he hit the Alien Cookies with some Miracle 15 pollen and a few months later, he was popping the seeds. “I knew what traits the Miracle was putting out, and I knew I wanted a faster, bigger version of the Alien Cookies,” he said. When Cap found the Alien Cookies, he had already been working with the Miracle male for about a year and had run several outcrosses. The problem is, it is incredibly slow growing and doesn’t stretch at all, so yields are terrible.” “It lingers in a room and just smells so damn good. “It tastes so good, packs an amazing high and the smoke on the exhale smells like nag champa,” he said of the Alien Cookies. Hence, ‘Miracle 15.’”Ĭap said the pairing that led to MAC was inspired by the phenomenal genetics of the Alien Cookies F2 #7, which, in his opinion, is probably the most incredible flower many people will smoke in their lifetime. However, at about two weeks in and 2 inches tall, they all died suddenly except for number 15. Luckily, they were saved by the love of my life and placed in a wet paper towel to germinate, which they all did. Unfortunately, I had forgotten about them in my pocket and put them through the wash. “What happened was I made Starfighter x Colombian about eight years ago, and roughly four years ago decided to pop them. “This plant is lovingly referred to as Miracle 15 or Miracle,” he said of the father’s side of MAC’s genetics. That was paired with a male whose lineage included Starfighter, bred by Alien Genetics, and a Colombian pheno Cap sourced personally while traveling in South America. And while we weren’t able to get him on the phone, he did offer to answer questions via email.įirst off, Cap dove into the genetics of MAC, which is an acronym for Miracle Alien Cookies - but he’s also heard it called “Mother of All Cookies and also Mother of All Cannabis.”Īccording to Cap, the mother he used was Alien Cookies F2 #7, bred by JAWS and selected by Cap. It took us a full month to track down Capulator and get the story of his amazing MAC creation. Back in the day, the elusive breeder of the MAC strain was a regular on the cultivation web forums that so many of the modern masters called home at one time or another. Stop by for MAC 1 Mondays, only $350 per ounce, plus Tax.Ĭapulator is an old school grower in a sea of fresh faces. When on Nantucket and searching for a dispensary, there is only one that carries the original Miracle Alien Cookies Cap’s Cut.
