02 · The Brief
What Runtz means at the Terp Bros counter.
Runtz is the strain-and-brand that Queens customers walk in asking for by name — often before they've looked at anything else on the shelf. The Runtz strain itself is the centerpiece: a Zkittlez x Gelato cross that broke through the cannabis cultural moment at the 2017 Emerald Cup and never left. At Terp Bros Astoria and Ozone Park, Runtz lives across multiple categories — flower, pre-rolls, vapes, edibles — and the demand is consistent because the strain name does most of the work before the budtender even pulls a jar. Originally founded in Los Angeles in 2017 by a team including rapper Yung LB, Ray, and Nick, Runtz reached New York through licensed partner production, meaning the flower in the jar at Cross Bay Blvd is grown and lab-tested in-state under NY OCM rules. The terpene profile — sweet, candy-leaning, dessert-adjacent — is what brings repeat customers back. It's not subtle, and that's why it sells.
Why it lives at Terp Bros
Runtz earns space across multiple shelves at both stores because the brand crosses age groups, smoking styles, and use cases in a way most cannabis brands don't. Older Queens customers know it from cultural moment alone; younger customers know it as the strain that's been on a Future track. Stocking it means meeting demand we already know is coming through the door. The sweet terpene profile also pairs well with NY's edibles cap math — when someone wants a Runtz gummy in addition to the flower, the 10mg-per-serving format keeps the dose controlled even when the flavor is loud. Cross-category coverage is the reason it earns the shelf real estate it does.
Ask for Runtz flower at Astoria when you want the sweet candy-terpene profile that put the strain on the map at the 2017 Emerald Cup. The jar usually doesn't need a sales pitch from the budtender — the name carries it across the counter on its own. Sometimes that's exactly what you want when you walk in: a strain you already know is going to land the way you remember it.

Out of California, on the Queens shelf today.
Runtz originated in 2017 in California. Like every brand on our wall, it earned its spot only after passing the New York OCM compliance lab and our buyer’s shelf review. What lands on Ditmars and Cross Bay is the same formulation the brand makes everywhere — held to the same independent test we hold our Hudson Valley growers to.
