Strain Overview
Mephisto Genetics is revered for boutique-quality autos, and ILL#72 - Crinkle Crunch lives up to the badge. Expect a potent 20–25% THC hybrid with dense, resin-caked flowers and a candy-grape profile that punches above its weight.

It suits beginners who want a forgiving first run and seasoned growers chasing top-shelf hash-grade resin. Demand for ILL-series drops often outpaces supply—if you see ILL#72 - Crinkle Crunch in stock, don’t sleep on it.
Lineage and Breeding
ILL#72 - Crinkle Crunch combines Forum Stomper’s frosty Girl Scout Cookies influence with Grape Crinkle’s unmistakable grape-candy funk. Forum Stomper contributes compact structure, heavy trichome coverage, and the balanced hybrid experience. Grape Crinkle layers in sweet, tart grape notes with a crinkled-leaf morphology and excellent bag appeal. Mephisto Genetics targeted a vigorous auto that holds boutique flavor while remaining easy to manage in small spaces. The cross amplifies resin density and terp intensity, producing consistent, sugar-coated colas with minimal fuss. Expect sturdy branching, a manageable height, and strong apical dominance—ideal for light shaping. The outcome is a reliable performer that crushes both flower jars and solventless pulls.
Flavor and Aroma Profile
The headline here is grape—think sweet concord candy with earthy undertones and a fruity finish. Dominant terpenes include caryophyllene (peppery depth), limonene (bright citrus lift), myrcene (lush, earthy body), and a supporting floral layer. On the grind, it bursts with sugary grape peel and a faint cookie dough base. The inhale is sweet and juicy; the exhale brings a grounded, earthy echo that keeps it from becoming cloying. Bag appeal is elite: shimmering trichs, tight calyxes, and a nose that jumps out of the jar.
Effects and Benefits
ILL#72 - Crinkle Crunch opens with an uplifting, happy wave that quickly settles into a calm, euphoric groove. It’s a social, creative hybrid that suits afternoon sessions, movie nights, or winding down without couchlock. The ride is smooth and focused up front, easing into a relaxing body effect that lingers for a couple of hours. The comedown is gentle and clear. If you enjoy balanced hybrids that brighten the mood without overdoing sedation, this one’s in your lane.
Phenotypic Variation
Pheno A leans Forum Stomper: compact bush, heavy frost, balanced grape-cookie nose. Pheno B swings toward Grape Crinkle: slightly more stretch, crinkled leaf edges, and louder purple-grape candy terps. Some expressions pick up deeper earthy-musk tones; others stay bright and sugary. Resin production is robust across the board, with select phenos pushing “sugar-dipped” levels ideal for dry sift or ice water hash. Pheno hunters will enjoy chasing the loudest grape candy with the densest frost—there are keepers to be found.
Growing Guide
Skill level: easy to moderate. ILL#72 - Crinkle Crunch thrives in 20–26°C temps, 45–60% RH (flower 40–50%), and moderate feed levels. Expect 8–10 weeks from seed to harvest. Indoors, target 400–550 g/m²; 60–150 g per plant in dialed-in auto setups. She responds well to LST and light defoliation around week 3–5; avoid heavy topping to keep timelines tight. Keep PPFD around 600–800 in flower and maintain good airflow—dense buds love it. Pro tips: start in final pots for autos, manage early vigor with gentle tie-downs, and support colas late flower. Watch calcium and magnesium at peak bloom to keep leaves pristine. If terps run hot, lower temps the last 10 days to boost color and preserve volatiles.
