Episode 142: Brad from Raw Genetics – Breeding Flavor, Building the Future
feat. Brad, Founder of Raw Genetics
This week, JP sits down with Brad, the mind behind Raw Genetics, a California-based breeder creating some of the most talked-about strains in the game. Brad’s approach is simple but powerful—hunt for unique terp profiles, lock in stable genetics, and always aim for flower that smokes as good as it looks.
From standout hits like Stuffed French Toast, White Zlushiez, Galaxy Glaze, Strawberry Strudel, Strawberry Fritter, & Zlushiez to the new wave he’s building right now, like Zikigai, Zoju, and Hikari. Brad’s work has found its way into grow rooms, jars, and conversations across the country. He breaks down how he selects parents, balances feminized and regular lines, and preserves heirloom genetics while still pushing fresh crosses that keep things exciting for growers and consumers alike.
🔥 In this episode:
• How Raw Genetics’ signature strains came to life
• The balancing act of feminized vs. regular seeds
• Preserving legacy fire while innovating new profiles
• Strain highlights from Brad’s current breeding projects
• Why breeding is still the heartbeat of cannabis culture
