How to grow Tangie
Taste
Seb's take
A stabilised cut of the 90s original acquired from Crockett's Family Farms, tracing back to Cali-O and Skunk, tall and sativa-leaning enough to need the headroom. Citrus, orange and tropical notes dominate the nose with a pungent undertone; the high is energetic, uplifted and creative.
Where it comes from
Reserva Privada offer Tangie as a stabilised, improved cut of the 1990s Tangerine Dream original, acquired from Crockett's Family Farms and traced back to Cali-O crossed with Skunk. The breeder describes her as sativa-dominant, and she grows tall and strong to match — a plant that takes eagerly to training. A modern refinement of an old favourite, with the citrus of the parent kept front and centre. Genuine heritage, tidied up.
Nose & flavour
The nose fills a room with tangerine, orange and lemon the moment flowering begins — fresh, zesty citrus above all, with a pungent undertone and a tropical sweetness behind. Orange leads unmistakably, the sharpness of lemon cutting through. A loud, unmistakably citrus profile; she does not keep her aroma to herself.
The high
At seventeen percent THC the effect is a bright, active one — energetic, uplifted and creative, the sativa side plainly in charge. Happy and euphoric with it, the sort that gets you moving rather than settling you down. Daytime company for doing things, not for winding down. Cheerful, clear and inclined to keep you busy.
Growing it
She'll go tall — eighty to 200cm — so give her the headroom, or better still train her to keep the height manageable and the yield up; she reacts well to it. Flowering runs sixty-three to seventy days indoors, roughly nine to ten weeks, or she finishes outdoors by late September or early October. Yields sit between 450 and 550 g/m². A vigorous, rewarding plant that repays a firm hand in training with both size control and a heavier harvest.
