The CrescendO Multipack from Ethos Genetics is a tasting flight built around two keeper females from the Crescendo program: Crescendo #2 and Crescendo #16. Each one was crossed into a different OG, Pie or Cookie line, giving six feminized hybrids that share a gassy, rubbery backbone yet still finish with their own personalities in the jar.
Each pack holds 1, 3 or 5 feminized seeds of each of the following six crosses (6, 18 or 30 seeds in total):
- Crescendo #2 x Cherry Pie
- Crescendo #2 x SFV OG
- Crescendo #2 x End Game #3
- Crescendo #2 x Marshmallow OG (Marshmallow OG is (Chem D x Triangle Kush) x Gelato)
- Crescendo #16 x Tahoe OG
- Crescendo #16 x SFV OG
Lineage: Two Crescendo Mothers, Six Directions
Crescendo #2 comes straight from the original Ethos cross of Chem D i95 x Mandarin Cookies. She grows tall and vigorous, with many bud sites and a canopy loaded with golf-ball-sized nuggets. Four of the six crosses in this pack carry her influence, paired with Cherry Pie, SFV OG, End Game #3 and Marshmallow OG.
Crescendo #16 was selected from the Headband i95 Rbx work. Her frame is more compact, but she still grows into a large plant, and her flowers are dense and egg-shaped with the classic Cookie structure. Ethos Genetics matched her with two West Coast OG staples, Tahoe OG and SFV OG, to stack density and fuel.
Aroma, Flavor and Effect
The Crescendo #2 side of the pack leans toward nasty gas and burnt rubber, the kind of loud chem funk that fills a room the moment a jar is cracked. Crossed with Cherry Pie or Marshmallow OG, that fuel picks up sweeter, dessert-like edges, while the End Game #3 and SFV OG crosses keep things sharp and pungent.
Crescendo #16 brings a calmer, earthy and piney profile. Paired with Tahoe OG and SFV OG, expect forest floor, pine sap and a lemony OG bite on the exhale. Smoke from both sides tends to be dense and resinous, with flavor that holds up through a slow cure.
Growing the CrescendO Multipack Indoors and Outdoors
Indoors, the Crescendo #2 crosses tend to stretch tall with long internodes, so topping early and spreading the canopy with LST or a SCROG net helps keep them level. The Crescendo #16 crosses are more medium in height with tighter spacing, which makes it easy to run both sides in the same tent if the taller plants are trained a bit harder.
Plan for a flowering window of 56 to 70 days, and lean toward the long end. These plants keep swelling and frosting up in the final weeks, so growers who let them go around ten weeks will usually see better weight and a richer terpene profile. Strong airflow and good humidity control matter as the dense colas fill out.

FAQ
What is in the CrescendO Multipack?
Six feminized crosses: Crescendo #2 crossed with Cherry Pie, SFV OG, End Game #3 and Marshmallow OG, plus Crescendo #16 crossed with Tahoe OG and SFV OG. Packs of 6, 18 or 30 seeds contain 1, 3 or 5 seeds of each cross.
What is the Crescendo strain made from?
Crescendo #2 comes from the original Ethos Genetics cross of Chem D i95 x Mandarin Cookies, while Crescendo #16 was selected from the Headband i95 Rbx line. Both are used as the shared parent in this pack.
How long do these Ethos seeds take to flower?
The breeder lists 56 to 70 days. Most of the crosses gain quality and terpenes late in bloom, so letting them run close to ten weeks is recommended for both yield and flavor.
Are these crosses good for hash and rosin?
Yes. Many phenotypes produce sandy resin with large trichome heads, which is what solventless makers want. Picking the heaviest washers from a run is a good reason to start with a larger pack.
Is the CrescendO Multipack suitable for beginners?
It is better suited to intermediate and advanced growers. The taller Crescendo #2 crosses need training, and the long flowering window rewards growers who can manage humidity and judge ripeness.
