Auto Tangerine Kush
Also known as: Auto Tangerine Kush Autoflower, Tangie Kush Auto
Auto Tangerine Kush Strain Overview
Auto Tangerine Kush is an autoflowering cannabis strain developed by crossing Tangerine Dream with an autoflowering Kush variety. This strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to combine the desirable flavor profile and uplifting effects of Tangerine Dream with the compact growth and automatic flowering characteristics of autoflowering genetics. The result is a plant that maintains the signature citrus aroma while offering the cultivation convenience of autoflowering varieties.
The strain produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring bright orange pistils that contrast against the deep green foliage. The buds are typically medium-sized with a conical structure and are covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The most notable characteristic is its powerful citrus aroma, which is immediately noticeable upon opening the container.
Auto Tangerine Kush is particularly valued by home growers for its relatively short life cycle and manageable size, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. While not as historically significant as some landrace strains, it represents an important development in autoflowering genetics, combining reliable automatic flowering with complex flavor profiles previously associated primarily with photoperiod varieties.

Auto Tangerine Kush Strain Growing Information
Auto Tangerine Kush is considered a moderate-difficulty strain suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a total life cycle of 8-10 weeks from seed to harvest, with flowering typically beginning around week 3-4. Indoor plants reach heights of 60-100 cm, while outdoor plants can grow slightly taller at 80-120 cm. Yields are moderate, with indoor growers typically harvesting 300-450 grams per square meter and outdoor growers achieving 50-150 grams per plant.
The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though it prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight when grown outdoors. It responds well to training techniques like Low Stress Training (LST) but is sensitive to overfeeding, particularly nitrogen. The plant has good resistance to common molds and pests but requires adequate airflow due to its dense bud structure. Growers should avoid transplanting as autoflowers prefer to start and finish in their final containers.
