Growing Information
Citrique can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, with a flowering time of 56-63 days (approximately 8-9 weeks). The strain exhibits typical sativa growth patterns with plants capable of reaching impressive heights over 180cm (70 inches), particularly when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires adequate vertical space due to a 2-3x stretch during flowering. The plant responds well to topping techniques and benefits from training methods to manage its tall, elongated structure. Yield is reported as heavy when properly cultivated, with outdoor growing generally producing higher yields than indoor setups. The strain is considered suitable for both novice and experienced growers, though attention to height management is important. Harvesting typically occurs in October for outdoor crops.
