Hi there Meph-Heads!
Kick off your flip-flops, sink into the hammock, and light the torches, Kiwi Lime 1 has arrived to bring the island vibes straight to your grow room.
From deep in the Mephisto Genetics jungle lab, this sun-drenched slice of genetic paradise has been years in the making. We’ve been sitting on a cut of Lime One, a tightly held, cut-only photoperiod from the Pacific Northwest for a while now, and she’s been teasing us with her bright, mouth-puckering lime zest ever since. Back when we started Mephisto, you couldn’t find anything like that profile in the UK or Europe. The second we got a proper whiff, we knew she deserved the full Mephisto treatment.

So we set to work, blending that razor-sharp citrus with our own tropical leanings. Once kiwi-forward terps started emerging from our Sour Stomper work, dosing it up with a splash of Creme de la Chem, we rode the wave, pushing it to F4 and releasing her as the first F4 Mephisto-medley Illuminauto. What came out the other side was something else entirely; an autoflower that bursts with fresh citronella and mandarin on the vine, before settling into a cured profile of straight-up lime rind and sweet popsicle. She hits smooth and starts light; clear-headed, buoyant, and just functional enough to roll another one, before melting into a deep, breezy calm that wraps you in warmth, even on a typical British summer evening. She’s Perfect for warm nights, torch-lit chats, and those moments when productivity takes a back seat to paradise.

Kiwi Lime 1 releases with its own graphic strain sticker designed by Mephisto's resident artist extraordinaire, Jim Connolly - @jimconnollydraws78

Kiwi Lime 1, along with a community-tested selection of F1 Limited Editions, will be dropping on the 28th of July at 1pm EU, 12pm UK, 7am Eastern, 4am Pacific.
Curious what makes Kiwi Lime 1 tick?
Here’s a peek at the juicy bit from her strain breakdown.
Join us aboard the Mephisto catamaran and let’s sail away to the tropics. Picture this: you’re lounging on a quiet beach, toes buried in warm sand, a perfectly chilled mai tai in hand, garnished with a mint sprig, lime wedge, orchid flower, and pink umbrella; the whole works. Overhead, the sky is a Bob Ross masterpiece of tangerine and rose as the sun dips behind swaying palm trees, casting long shadows across flickering tiki torches. Jimbo and the Mephisto band strike up a twilight tiki serenade, their ukuleles and pahu drums sending music drifting on the gentle breeze.

Kiwi Lime 1 grown by our very own @jimbo_mephisto
Ned appears with another fresh mai tai and a perfectly rolled zoot of Kiwi Lime 1. The air fills with a sweet, lime-forward cloud of terps. That, my friends, is the essence of Kiwi Lime 1, our latest slice of genetic paradise from the Mephisto jungle lab.

She starts like a light island breeze; clear-headed and buoyant, then slowly melts into a relaxing, full-body float. Not so heavy that you’ll sink into the deck, but not one for productive afternoons. More suited for hammock pondering, casual snacks, and wondering whether you’ve got time for another joint before the sun goes down. The high lingers with long legs, easing tension without turning you into a sandbag. Think of it as your Blue Hawaii moment: time slows, the background hum of reality fades, and suddenly you’re vibing barefoot on the sand, cocktail in hand, watching the sunset.

And here's what some of our testers had to say about Kiwi Lime 1
Grower: u/kurtless
Medium: BuildASoil 3.0 | Lighting: LED | Container: 3.9 gal
Nutes: BuildABloom, BuildAVeg
Training: Supercropping | Cycle: 80–89 days | Height: 28–33"
Aroma: Bright lime citrus with a bathroom-cleaner chem note
Effect: Potent, stoney, and mood-lifting—ideal for anxiety and depression

Uniform across all five plants, Kiwi Lime 1 showed reliable structure, strong lateral growth, and a consistent terpene profile from veg to cure. While the buds could benefit from tighter formation and fewer leaves, the high more than made up for it: comfortable, heady, and positive. Think lime-scented Pledge with a twist of chem and a full-body exhale. One of kurtless’s favourite highs from the drop.
Grower: u/stl_ent
Medium: Soil | Lighting: LED | Container: 30 gal
Nutes: BuildASoil | Training: Leaf tucking, lollipop, LST
Cycle: 70–79 days | Height: 34–39"
Aroma: Zesty lime peel, tropical kiwi, and warm citrus funk with a light chemical edge
Effect: Balanced hybrid with layered flavour and a bold nose

Kiwi Lime 1 put out 133g of dense, citrus-soaked buds with a complex terp profile, lime-forward with hints of chem, fuel, and fermented fruit. This pheno ran on the bushier side with tight nugs, so good airflow is key. While a bit leafier than some might prefer, the aroma, flavour, and overall experience made her a standout. An excellent daytime or creative smoke with just enough funk to keep things interesting.
Grower: @Tenacious_Trichomes
Medium: Coco | Lighting: LED | Container: 3 gal
Nutes: Green Planet, House & Garden, Hygrozyme, MIIM Horticulture
Training: LST & defoliation | Cycle: 80–89 days | Height: 22–27"
Aroma: Loud grapes, ripe fruit, pungent gas
Effect: TBD – still drying, but the nose promises a knockout

A stress-free grow for this novice-friendly pheno. Responded beautifully to training, with multiple fat colas, excellent fade, and a heavy, intoxicating aroma that shifted from sweet to sour and gassy. Tenacious_Trichomes praised the plant's structure and vigor, calling it “another hit out of the park.” Final yield was around 3–4 oz, with the smell alone hinting at a strong, flavorful smoke to come.
Grower: u/inappropriatelylarge
Medium: Coco | Lighting: LED | Container: 5 gal
Nutes: CropSalt
Training: Leaf tucking | Cycle: 90–99 days | Height: 34–39"
Aroma: Fermented citrus with earthy depth on exhale
Effect: Relaxing and mellow

An easy, hands-off grow with strong lateral spread and great yields. This pheno showed some foxy bud structure, but made up for it with a dense frost coat and a solid 180g harvest. While the trim was trickier due to foxtailing, the overall experience was low-effort and rewarding. The fermented citrus profile carried from flower into cure, mellowing into a rich, earthy smoke perfect for winding down.
Grower: u/11th_Division_Grows
Medium: Soil | Lighting: LED | Container: 2 gal | Nutes: House & Garden
Training: Topped @ 5th node | Cycle: 70–79 days | Height: 28–33"
Aroma: Bold sweet lime and citrus funk
Effect: Uplifting, euphoric, with hybrid sativa energy

This squat, bushy pheno was the loudest in the tent, sweet lime terps with serious presence. After topping, she stacked in nicely with uniform growth and a strong citrus zest through flower. Buds were more typical of autos, less dense than BBP but coated in trichomes. At just 36g dry, she was small but mighty, delivering a clear, happy headspace and a vibe that floats just above the surface. A solid pick for fans of bright fruit-forward strains with functional effects.
Grower: @stealthmode204
Medium: Coco Coir | Lighting: 320w SF SE3000 | Container: 3 gal
Nutes: Remo / Hygrozyme / Hyshield / Hygroben / Agsil25
Training: Topped + LST | Cycle: 80–89 days | Height: 28–33"
Aroma: Sour lime candy with lemon cream during flower; finishes with lime-kiwi sweetness and a chemi punch on the exhale
Effect: Strong, balanced high with medium duration; euphoric and sticky with heavy bag appeal.

This pheno responded beautifully to topping—an even canopy of multiple tops with vigorous growth throughout. Buds were super sticky, but the trim was a bit leaf-heavy. Despite that, this one stood out with a truly unique terp profile and chemi-lime flavour combo. A quick fade at the end made for a photogenic harvest - top marks from a seasoned grower.
Grower: u/Modkins
Medium: Coast of Maine Stonington + Seed Starter | Lighting: 240W LED 24/7 | Container: 5 gal
Nutes: TPS Nutrients
Training: LST with garden stakes | Cycle: 80–89 days | Height: 16–21"
Aroma: Skunky citrus with a sharp chem backend
Effect: Heavy-hitting indica vibes—great for couch lock, pain relief, and winding down

Compact and bushy with two big colas and a solid canopy of smaller buds, this plant thrived with minimal effort. She was a little too leafy for the grower’s taste but packed on serious weight up top—dense enough to watch for mould late in flower. The profile leans skunky-chemi with a touch of citrus, and the smoke is medicinal and sedative, making it ideal for nighttime use or making hash.

A New Limited Edition Drop, a free strain and an early-adopter discount!
Along with Kiwi Lime 1, we’re also introducing a brand new lineup of Limited Editions. These special one-off limited edition F1 hybrids are a micro selection and production of 1-2 plants only, meaning a maximum of around 500 packs for worldwide availability.

School Yard Crush × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 55/45
Aroma: Limeade funk, B.O. bouquet, citrus musk
Effect: Focused, upbeat, oddly motivating

She's built like a tiny tank—short, squat, and packing grenades for buds. Trichomes start early and never quit, and yields are anything but small: one grower pulled 8 oz from a 5-gal pot. Her aroma evolves from sweet lime fizz to full armpit funk, but don’t let that scare you off—she delivers a smooth, functional high perfect for knocking out to-do lists or diving deep into a creative project. Funky but focused.

Lime 182 (Kiwi Lime 1 x 505 Headbanger Tester) by Mephisto Genetics
by u/AutoFlowerFluff in Autoflowers
Lime 182 doesn’t ask what’s my age again, just how fast you want to get rocked. This pheno stacked a 10oz harvest in a self-watering 3-gallon setup with no training, pushing out a deceptively squat frame topped by a chonky main cola. Early aromas of sweet pear skin gave way to a gassy citronella-lime explosion at chop. The high is punchy and energetic, with a bold head rush and diesel-soaked lime flavour that’ll have you bouncing off the walls—or right into your weekend plans.
🩰 Limewarp 🥝 🌫️
Do-Si-Delirium × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 55/45
Aroma: Frosted lemonade, Meyer lemon, sweet cream
Effect: Uplifting, euphoric, social
A vigorous, citrus-drenched powerhouse with a trichome helmet on every bud. Limewarp brings structure, bounce-back strength, and a layered dessert funk that’s part lemonade stand, part space station. Expect energetic, cerebral effects perfect for creative sessions, outings, and mid-day pick-me-ups—with a fade that paints the canopy in rose and gold.
🐉 Lord of the Runtz 🍭 🔮
Mango Runtz × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 65/45
Aroma: Citrus candy and gas
Effect: Smooth, sedative, sunset-ready
A gentle sorcery of fruit and funk, Lord of the Runtz blends the sweet gas of Mango Runtz with the zesty reach of Kiwi Lime 1. It grew into a medium bush with improved lateral spread and finished with a moody dark fade that was worth every extra day. The smoke? Candy gas up front, mellow sedative bliss on the back end. One joint to rule your evening.
🥭 Mojito de Mango 🌿 🧊
Old School Mango Haze × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 35/65
Aroma: Mango nectar, lime zest, garden mint
Effect: Light, cerebral, tropical clarity
Mojito de Mango is a tall, zesty sativa with island vibes and old-school energy. Expect long, hazy colas soaked in mango sweetness, sharpened with lime and kissed with minty coolness. She hits fast and bright, clear-headed, social, and creative - ideal for daytime tokes, beach walks, or dancing barefoot in the kitchen.
🍓 Neon Nuggets ✨ 🔋
Strawberry Nuggets × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 70/30
Aroma: Strawberry limeade, cream soda, citrus zest
Effect: Euphoric, social, light body float

u/xJawlz
Neon Nuggets grows like a fruit bush on a mission, dense, round, and absolutely loaded. She stays compact but swells with forearm-sized colas that glisten like sugar-coated candy sticks. The Strawberry Nuggets brings out the short, squat structure and heavy berry terps, while Kiwi Lime 1 injects a blast of citrus zing and layers of trichomes. A true sticky treat with dessert-forward flavour and a sociable, buzzy high perfect for group hangs, giggle fits, and long summer evenings on the porch.
🍊 Super Kiwi Haze 🥝 💥
Super Orange Haze × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 45/55
Aroma: Five Alive citrus, orange rind, creamy lime exhale
Effect: Uplifting, cerebral, haze-forward daytime ride
This zesty hybrid leans hard into its Super Orange Haze heritage, delivering a loud citrus nose and long, spear-shaped colas that glow like tropical torches. She stretched to a respectable 34–39" in a 3-gallon coco setup, responding well enough to topping and LST, though with her Haze genetics, uneven growth kept things interesting. Final yield clocked in at 122g of flower, plus 38g of larf. Expect a Five Alive medley on the grind and a vibrant, creative high that’s great for brainstorming, deep cleaning, or getting lost in a playlist.
🍍 Tropitizer OG 🥊 🧃
Appletizing × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 65/35
Aroma: Sweet green apple, lemon-lime zest, citrus candy
Effect: Uplifting and social, transitions into a mellow cruise

u/xJawlz
Tropitizer OG is a juicy midday delight—like packing a fruit cart into a zoot. She mixes sweet apple and zesty lime with a clean citrus snap that lingers long after the exhale. One of the most vigorous plants in the tent, this cross grows tall and proud with evenly spaced branches and beautifully spaced bud sites. The high is functional, upbeat, and social—ideal for daytime smokers who still want a little weight to the come-down.

And of course, for the drop, we have the 'last but not least' strains...
🫐 Sour Bear Smash 🍃 🛋️
Beary Berry Punch × Kiwi Lime 1
I/S: 65/35
Aroma: Tart berry compote, lime rind, fizzy candy

A bold, zesty knockout with dense buds, a sticky finish, and a loud terp profile that hits like sparkling berry lemonade with a lime twist. She grows stout and bushy with fat colas and a resin sheen that screams extract potential. The high leans into the body, calming without full sedation, a perfect companion for winding down, watching clouds roll by, or just vibing on a solo mission.
💒 Tiki Bride 🍍 🔥

I/S: 65/35
Aroma: Citronella, funky lime, fizzy zest
