How to grow Mango Chutney
Taste
Seb's take
Somango and Western Winds combine for a fruit bowl of a nose — mango, banana and citrus, tasting rather like a dank sweet shop. She reeks accordingly through flowering, so a carbon filter is not optional so much as compulsory. Fast and generous too, delivering rock-hard buds inside 63 days.
Where it comes from
Dr Krippling crossed Somango with Western Winds for this 20/80 sativa, and the fruit-based terpenes are the whole point of it — mango, banana and citrus dominating a profile that ends up tasting, the record says, like a dank sweet shop. The Somango supplies the tropical character; the Western Winds supplies the vigour behind those record-testing yields. A cross bred first and foremost for flavour and volume.
Nose & flavour
Mango, banana and citrus, a full fruit bowl of a nose that reads like a dank sweet shop — bright, tropical and sweet from top to bottom. The record does not record separate flavour tags, but the description is vivid enough: this is fruit forward and unashamed of it. And loud with it, which the growing section will return to.
The high
The record keeps its counsel on the effect beyond the flavour and the harvest, so I will not invent one for you. What the 20/80 makeup and the 19 to 23% THC imply is a bright, cerebral, sativa-leaning character — take that as a steer rather than a promise. The honest answer is that the source is more interested in the nose and the yield than the head.
Growing it
She reeks during flowering, the record warns, so a carbon filter is not optional so much as compulsory — she does not travel discreetly. Let her vegetate two to three weeks to gain her shape, and she produces rock-hard buds, upwards of 850 g/m² of them, all within 63 days. Flowering runs 63 to 70 days, with yields recorded across a wide 450 to 850 g/m² band. Fast and generous, then, provided you have managed the smell. A high-yielding, pungent plant that rewards a well-ventilated room.
