Heir Heads is a newer hybrid of Apples and Bananas and Runtz. People know it for a fruity, earthy smell with a little diesel and a feel that starts lively and settles down later. It's a recent strain, so there's less published about it than about its parents.

Where does Heir Heads come from?

Sources agree on the cross: Apples and Bananas with Runtz. Apples and Bananas is a Compound Genetics hybrid, and Runtz is the well-known Zkittlez and Gelato cross.

Who bred it is disputed. Some listings credit Compound Genetics, while others say it's thought to come from the breeder Kounter Kulture and is now sold through Conception Nurseries. Neither claim is confirmed, so the breeder is best treated as unknown. You may also see it spelled Heirheads or Hair Heads.

What does Heir Heads smell and taste like?

Descriptions mention ripe fruit, berry and spiced apple, with earthy and herbal notes and a diesel or skunky edge underneath. Some people compare its sweetness to Gelato, and a few mention sweet cherry or candy.

The major strain databases don't publish terpene results for Heir Heads yet, so we haven't listed any. If your product's label shows terpenes, that's the best guide to your batch.

Heir Heads effects: what people report

People most often describe Heir Heads as euphoric, uplifted and energetic at first, then settling into something more relaxed. Some reviews say it comes on fast, and a few people found it sedating at higher amounts.

These are experiences people report, not promises, and there aren't many reviews yet. Dry mouth and dry eyes come up, and some people mention feeling anxious or getting a headache.

How strong is Heir Heads?

Heir Heads posts high numbers. One strain database lists it at 23% THC, and flower listings have reported around 30%. Little CBD is reported.

With numbers like that, start with a small amount and give it time. The THC on your product's label is what counts. Our guide to reading cannabis labels explains the numbers.

Buying Heir Heads in Canada

Since it's a newer strain with a few spellings, check the name and the breeder or producer on the label so you know what you're getting.

Look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of its fruity smell.

Heir Heads vs Apples and Bananas

Apples and Bananas is one of Heir Heads' parents. It usually smells of apple, pear and sweet gas and has a happy, relaxed reputation. Heir Heads keeps some of that fruit and gas but adds candy sweetness from Runtz, and early reviews describe a livelier start before it settles. Heir Heads is also listed with higher THC. If you want something balanced and well documented, go with Apples and Bananas. If you're curious about the newer cross, try Heir Heads.
