How to grow Red Mandarine F1 Fast Version
Taste
Seb's take
Red Poison Auto crossed with Tangie, and true to the tangerine side, sweet citrus and wood carry the nose. The high settles pleasantly: relaxed, happy, euphoric, nothing showy about it. She grows upward rather than outward, so give her the headroom, and rewards the wait with rows of red flowers in just seven weeks.
Where it comes from
Sweet Seeds crossed a Red Poison Auto with a special clone of Tangie to make this one — the Tangie side, itself a byword for tangerine, doing exactly what its name promises, while the Red Poison lends both speed and the striking red colouring the finished flowers carry. Despite the autoflower parent it comes out photoperiodic, and fast with it. A citrus-forward, quick-finishing plant with a bit of theatre to its colour, and a clear nod to the mandarin in the name.
Nose & flavour
Sweet citrus leads, true to the tangerine parentage, with a woody note grounding it underneath. It is a bright, zesty profile — the orchard side of the family well to the fore — clean and cheerful rather than heavy or fuel-toned. The sort of nose that flatters a grow room and lingers agreeably on the smoke.
The high
The effect settles pleasantly and without drama: relaxed, happy and euphoric, a mild-mannered lift that neither races nor sinks. There is nothing showy about it — an even, agreeable sort of experience at 17–20% THC, good company rather than a knockout. She keeps things sociable and clear-headed.
Growing it
She grows upward rather than outward, so give her the headroom and consider a Sea of Green, which the record picks out as her ideal — rows of tall, red-flowered plants rather than one spreading bush. Flowering is quick at 49 to 56 days, roughly seven weeks, with a yield reaching upwards of 500 g/m². No height figure is recorded, only the habit of climbing, so plan vertical. A striking, fast, tidy plant for a grower working with height rather than width.
