Another Quick Dive...
ZO2 is an autoflowering cultivar bred and selected by Automatic Genetics. This line originates from a cross of Candy Fumez and Whippets, combining some of the most terpene-rich and culturally significant genetics from the modern cannabis breeding landscape.
Candy Fumez: Parent of ZO2
Parent of ZO2, Candy Fumez, was a collab between Bloom Seed Co and Boston Roots Seed Co.
Candy Fumez is itself a hybrid of Zkittlez (Gas Station Bob, Terphogz) and Sherbanger - another creation from Boston Roots Seed Co.
The Zkittlez lineage has become one of the most recognizable terp-forward varieties in the market, celebrated for its tropical sweetness and complex candy-like profile. Its influence in Candy Fumez brings a dominant fruit character to ZO2, with undertones of citrus and tang.
Sherbanger, on the other hand, is known for adding fuel-heavy funk and a creamy backend that balances the brighter notes of Zkittlez. Originally created from Sunset Sherbet × Headbanger, Sherbanger delivers structure, color, and a pungent sharpness that helped define Candy Fumez’s profile.
The result is a parent cultivar that is both loud and stable — a vibrant fusion of candy and gas that laid the aromatic foundation for ZO2.
Whippets: Parent of ZO2
Whippets is a cultivar also bred by Automatic Genetics and available through TexanHemp.com. Whippets is the result of a cross between Gushers and Triangle Kush, two powerhouse lines in their own right. Gushers is known for its syrupy fruit nose and heavy resin production, while Triangle Kush contributes a deep, earthy gas and Florida-style OG body to the cross.
Whippets was selected for its ability to finish quickly, express loud aromatics, and remain compact in stature — qualities that it passed on to ZO2. The pairing of Whippets with Candy Fumez allowed Automatic Genetics to explore new terpenes within a proven autoflowering framework.
ZO2: an Autoflowering Powerhouse
By bringing together Zkittlez, Sherbanger, Gusherz, and Triangle Kush into a compact, automatic expression, this combination of these parents resulted in a cultivar that represents a modern fusion of legacy and flavorful genetics.
