ATF Strain Overview
Alaskan Thunder Fuck, also known as “ATF,” is a well-known cannabis cultivar with a fair THC content of up to 20%. Growers claim that ATF originally sprouted during the late 1970s. Farmers discovered the Alaskan Thunder Fuck strain after merging a Northern California cultivar with Matanuska Thunder Fuck (MTF), a cultivar bred in Matanuska Valley. The origin of MTF is unknown but is thought to have been created in the 70s in Matanuska Valley from crossing a ruderalis wild-type cannabis cultivar with the landrace Afghani cultivar.
Exhibiting a frosty, trichome-glazed appearance with dense lemon-menthol scented buds, this uplifting strain delivers euphoria and pine-skunk flavor notes that gradually engulf the senses. You may also notice hints of mint with each toke of this cool appetite-enhancing strain.
