How to grow Mandarin Haze Auto
Taste
Seb's take
An Unknown Haze crossed with Lemon Haze and steadied by Ruderalis, Mandarin Haze Auto is named with unusual honesty — mandarin genuinely dominates the nose, sweet and fruity besides. The high is uplifting, relaxed and happy. How citrus-forward she turns out depends rather a lot on how she's grown, so mind your conditions.
Where it comes from
Ministry of Cannabis crossed an Unknown Haze with Lemon Haze and steadied the pair with Ruderalis — an autoflowering, sativa-leaning hybrid that is, for once, named with unusual honesty. Mandarin genuinely dominates the nose, rather than the name being wishful. The Lemon Haze lends the citrus, the Ruderalis the fixed clock, and the mystery Haze whatever it is the record declines to name.
Nose & flavour
Mandarin leads, strong but not overpowering, over a sweet and fruity base — a very strong citrus profile, the record has it, with a general fruity quality throughout. How citrus-forward she turns out depends rather a lot on how she's grown, so mind your conditions if the mandarin is what you are after. Bright and fruity when she is treated well.
The high
Uplifting, relaxed and happy — an even, pleasant effect that lifts before it settles, in keeping with a sativa-leaning auto steadied by a touch of ruderalis. Bright company for the daytime rather than a heavy evening one. Nothing overwrought about it; a cheerful, balanced lift that suits the citrus character of the nose.
Growing it
Flowering takes 70 days, with a modest 100 g/m² yield and THC recorded at 19%. No height figure is given, so judge the frame by eye and let the sativa-leaning, ruderalis-steadied makeup set your expectations. The record is candid that the citrus expression varies with the growing, so attentive conditions pay off here more than most — feed and environment shape the nose as much as the genetics. A modest yielder whose real reward is a well-grown aroma.
