Tangerine Sugar Feminised cannabis seeds grow into a plant that exhibits 70% sativa genetics in many aspects. From the plant shape to the flavour and terpene profiles, the sativa genetics pass on the best of their traits. This plant is capable of large yields and can be grown both indoors and outdoors in regions with sunny and Mediterranean climates.
Tangerine Sugar flowers are a refreshing and citrusy explosion for the palate. As the name suggests, sweet tangerine notes are immediately recognisable among the aromas. The effect is long-lasting and conveys a feeling of cheerfulness. A thin plant with a medium final height. Yields are surprisingly large when grown under the right conditions.
Tangerine Sugar Feminised cannabis seeds consist of 70 % sativa and 30 % indica genetics. This strain is a combination of a Californian Indica crossed with the offspring of a Skunk #1 and Sensi Skunk. The sativa influence comes from the latter two and is evident in the flower structure, the fruity flavours, the cerebral effect and the shape of the leaves. The Californian indica influence can be seen in the medium height and the relatively short average flowering time for a sativa-dominant strain.
The growth of Tangerine Sugar
Tangerine Sugar grows with the typical sativa characteristics. As these are feminised cannabis seeds, only female seedlings are produced, which represent the desired, flower-producing type. Overall, it is a slender plant with side branches that put more energy into vertical than horizontal growth. The node spacing is more open than narrow indica plants, with gaps filled by large and slender fan leaves.
One area where the indica genetics shine through is in flowering. Tangerine Sugar Feminised has a flowering time of 63 to 70 days, which is significantly shorter than an average sativa strain. Another area where indica genetics have helped to tame sativa dominance is final height. Under optimal conditions, indoor growers can achieve a height of 120 to 140 cm. In outdoor cultivation, the plants can reach over 180 cm in a good season.
The yields of Tangerine Sugar Feminised are impressive. Indoor growers can expect generous yields of 500 to 550 grams per square metre under the right conditions. If the weather cooperates, outdoor growers can expect 600 grams or more per plant. The flowers are small to medium-sized, but extremely dense, which gives them their weight. Dark orange-coloured stigmas lie above a layer of milky white trichomes that cover the surface.
When grown outdoors, Tangerine Sugar cannabis seeds thrive best in sunny and warm climates common to Mediterranean regions. Indoors, she can cope with many light spectrums, including CMH, HPS and LED. Due to the slender nature of the side branches, common training methods are recommended to support or strengthen the plant. SOG, SCROG, supercropping and lollipopping are proven techniques to achieve better yields.
