In the Mephisto Genetics catalog, some strains are built for speed (Sour Crack), and some are built for size (Hubbabubbasmelloscope). Toof Decay was built for one thing: Resin.
Designed to be the autoflowering successor to the legendary Sweet Tooth, Toof Decay is widely considered one of the most photogenic and hash-friendly autoflowers ever created. It is an absolute frost factory. The name is a tongue-in-cheek reference to its flavor profile: it is so sugary sweet, it might just rot your teeth.
But don't let the candy name fool you. This is a heavy-hitting Indica that serves as a genetic cornerstone for Mephisto (it is the father of the popular Mango Smile). It offers a rare combination of massive yields, boutique bag appeal, and medical-grade potency.
History and Lineage: The Sweet Tooth Legacy
Toof Decay is an F5+ stabilized strain, representing years of work to lock in the specific traits of its famous mother.
The Mother (Sweet Tooth #1.1): A legendary strain originally bred by Spice of Life Seeds (and preserved by Chimera). It is a mix of Sweet Pink Grapefruit and Blueberry. It was famous in the early 2000s for its high mold resistance, massive yields, and distinct candied-blueberry flavor.
The Selection: Mephisto selected a specific phenotype that showcased the highest trichome production and the sweetest aroma.
The Result: Toof Decay captures the essence of the Sweet Tooth—the grapefruit/blueberry sweetness and the happy, relaxing high—but packs it into a robust, fast-flowering automatic plant.
Terpene Profile: The Candy Shop
This strain has one of the most universally loved terpene profiles in the game. It is sweet, floral, and inviting.
Dominant Terpenes
Myrcene (The Sweetness): The dominant force, providing the ripe berry and musky fruit base.
Linalool (The Floral): Inherited from the Blueberry lineage, this adds a distinct floral, lavender-like top note that makes the sweetness smell sophisticated rather than artificial.
Limonene (The Citrus): A subtle background of citrus zest (from the Grapefruit grandparent) that brightens the profile.
Flavor Notes:
The Aroma: It is delicious. It smells of old-school blueberry muffins, sweet grapefruit, and floral perfume. It is a "pretty" smell that lacks the skunky aggression of a Chemdawg.
The Smoke: Incredibly smooth. It tastes of candied berries, vanilla, and earth. It is a lip-smacker that leaves a sugary aftertaste.
Strain Effects: The Happy Indica
Toof Decay is favored by medical patients because it offers powerful relief without turning you into a zombie (at moderate doses).
The Experience
The Smile: The high begins with a surge of creativity and happiness. It is a "mood fixer." You feel optimistic and light.
The Relaxation: The Indica genetics quickly settle in, providing a warm, vibrating body stone. It is excellent for muscle tension and joint pain.
The Creativity: Unlike heavier Indicas (like 24 Carat), Toof Decay leaves the mind relatively clear for a while. It is a great strain for listening to music or doing art.
The Sleep: At higher doses, the Myrcene takes over, leading to a deep, restful sleep.
Best For: Treating chronic pain, insomnia, anxiety, and creative relaxation.
Growing Toof Decay: The Frosty Bush
This is a dream plant for the home grower. It is tough, it yields heavily, and it looks spectacular.
Growth Structure
The Shape: Toof Decay grows in a classic "squat bush" structure. It is wider than it is tall, often resembling a hedge. It rarely exceeds 60cm – 80cm in height but can fill a 3x3 footprint laterally.
The Yield: High. It is a very productive plant. The bud-to-leaf ratio is excellent. Indoor yields of 90g – 150g per plant are achievable.
The Colors: It is a visual stunner. The buds are often pastel green, pink, and purple, coated in white resin. It is one of the most colorful strains in the Mephisto lineup.
The Resistance: Inherited from the Sweet Tooth (which was bred for outdoor Canadian growing), it is highly resistant to mold and pests, despite its dense buds.
Grower’s Tip: Leaf Tucking is critical. Because it is so bushy and leafy, you must tuck the fan leaves to let light reach the inner shoots. If you do this, the plant will reward you with long, continuous colas that look like baseball bats. It is also an excellent candidate for Sea of Green (SOG) due to its uniform height.
Final Verdict: The Connoisseur's Candy
Toof Decay is a strain that checks every box. It yields like a commercial cropper, tastes like a boutique dessert strain, and hits like a medical Indica. It is the perfect strain for the grower who wants a jar full of beautiful, colorful, and tasty buds that are excellent for making hash or simply enjoying in a joint. If you have a sweet tooth for cannabis, this is the only strain that will satisfy it.
You should choose Toof Decay if:
You want massive resin production (Great for Hash/Rosin).
You love sweet berry and grapefruit flavors.
You need medical-grade pain relief.
You have limited vertical space (Short and Bushy).
Score: 9.6/10 (The Resin Queen)
