New Kamala OG And Orange President Cannabis Strains Celebrate 2024 Presidential Election
Fast Buds releases two new cannabis strains, Kamala OG and Orange President, for 2024 election.
Fast Buds, a global producer of auto-flowering cannabis genetics, has unveiled two exclusive cultivars to mark the 2024 U.S. Presidential election. The limited-edition strains, Orange President and Kamala OG, each symbolize the contrasting political figures they are named after: former President Donald Trump and sitting Vice President Kamala Harris.
"At Fast Buds, we believe that cannabis culture thrives on creativity and conversation," says Eugene Boukreev, head of marketing at Fast Buds. "The launch of Orange President and Kamala OG is our playful way of celebrating not just the political landscape, but also the diversity and unique characteristics that reflect different perspectives."
The company views these strains as more than just a novelty. It aims to spark discussions about cannabis legalization and the political climate, while offering unique experiences to cannabis enthusiasts.
A Closer Look: Orange President Auto
With a head-turning appearance and effects to match, Orange President boasts a Sativa-dominant profile. Featuring vibrant orange-haired trichomes, the plant delivers potent citrus terpenes that invigorate the senses. Testing at 26% THC, the strain promises a blend of sweet, zesty citrus flavors, with uplifting effects that appeal to recreational users seeking a bright, energized high.
Kamala OG Auto: A Sativa For Productivity
On the other side of the political spectrum, Kamala OG is designed to be a fitting tribute to a trailblazing vice president. With a cerebral Sativa-dominant profile, Kamala OG presents a smooth balance of sweet and sour flavors, offering notes of tangy fruit cocktail. It comes in at an average of 24% THC, promising a creative, focused high for those with a busy schedule, much like its namesake.
The team describes the cultivar as a "productive and creative hybrid" that mirrors the qualities of a high-performing individual.
Cannabis And Politics: A Growing Intersection
In a year where cannabis legalization has taken center stage, these strains arrive at a time of growing bipartisan support for federal legalization. According to a recent Data For Progress report, 66% of U.S. voters now favor nationwide cannabis legalization, a figure that has doubled in the last two decades. Vice President Harris, in particular, has officially added cannabis legalization to her political agenda, emphasizing the importance of making it "the law of the land."
Boukreev sees the release of these strains as a reflection of the times. "Just as presidential candidates represent different views and visions, these strains offer distinct profiles and effects that allow consumers to choose what resonates with them," he explains. "Cannabis has a long history of sparking debates and bringing people together, and we wanted to blend that spirit with a bit of lighthearted fun around such an important topic."
Autoflower Innovation
Both strains utilize autoflowering technology, which allows cultivators to enjoy their harvest in as little as 10 weeks. Autoflower seeds, known for their ease of growth and quick flowering times, have become a favorite among both novice and experienced cannabis growers.
Pre-orders for Orange President and Kamala OG are now open on the Fast Buds website, with the official release date set for November 7, 2024. Fast Buds promises that customers will soon have the opportunity to see these cultivars in action, as community updates featuring photos and videos of the growing plants will be shared in the coming months.
