The Original Z (popularly known as "Zkittlez", aka "Skittles," "Skittlz," and "Island Skittles") is an indica hybrid marijuana strain bred from an alleged mix of Grape Ape and Grapefruit that is crossed with another undisclosed strain. This sweet, tropical confection-flavored cultivar came to market in the 2010s.
Inspired by the love of skate culture, connoisseur level cannabis, and all things nerd, the Alien Labs Martians didn’t reinvent cannabis, but transformed the game. By not only breeding their own proprietary strains and getting them to the legal market, Alien Labs’ meteoric rise came organically: through R&D and a genuine labor of love.
