Exotic Genetix began in a Tacoma, Washington hydro shop with a mission to help growers access clean, healthy genetics. Today, it stands among the elite seed breeders in the cannabis world. Founded by “Mike,” the company started by offering seeds to medical patients—eventually developing into a highly sought-after name known for flavor, frost, and winning phenotypes.
“From donating seeds to patients to breeding trophy strains, Exotic Genetix is built on passion and performance.”

🤔 What Makes Exotic Genetix Unique?
Exotic Genetix was born from a desire to eliminate the pest-ridden clones circulating in the early medical scene. Mike began with home crosses like Supernatural, Flurple, and Essence. These quickly earned credibility among local growers, and the brand evolved into a professional breeding operation.
Since then, Exotic Genetix has taken home multiple High Times Cannabis Cup awards—including Best Hybrid and Breeder of the Year.
Their strains are known for:
- Wild terpene profiles
- Dense trichome production
- Stable, vigorous growth
