California Sunrise
Also known as: Californian Sunrise, Cali Sunrise
California Sunrise Strain Overview
California Sunrise is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by the Mallorca-based breeder Alpha Genetics. This strain was developed through back-crossing California Orange with itself, a breeding technique that intensified the desirable characteristics of the parent strain while creating a unique phenotype that carries the best qualities in terms of effects, flavor, and aroma profile. The strain exhibits a 65% indica and 35% sativa genetic composition, making it predominantly relaxing while retaining some uplifting sativa characteristics.
The strain is particularly notable for its distinctive appearance and growing characteristics. California Sunrise produces large, tight buds that develop a beautiful orange coloration at maturity, which inspired its name. The plant exhibits sativa-like growth patterns despite its indica dominance, with a stretch of approximately 200% during flowering, though it doesn't require excessive vertical space. This makes it well-suited for Sea of Green cultivation methods. The strain is relatively insensitive to high temperatures and requires minimal fertilizer, though it performs best in indoor or greenhouse environments as it struggles with outdoor cultivation, particularly when temperatures drop below 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
