Citrus Tropicana
Also known as: Tropicana Citrus, Citrus Trop
Citrus Tropicana Strain Overview
Citrus Tropicana is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its vibrant citrus aroma and well-rounded effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat debated within the cannabis community, but it is generally believed to be a cross between Tropicana Cookies and a potent citrus-forward sativa, possibly Tangie or Lemon Skunk. This combination results in a plant that inherits both the tropical fruit notes from its Tropicana Cookies lineage and the sharp, zesty citrus characteristics from its other parent.
The strain is visually distinctive, typically producing medium to large-sized buds with a dense, conical structure. The flowers are often a bright green hue with occasional purple or dark green undertones, covered in a generous coating of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils weave through the buds, adding to the strain's tropical aesthetic. The leaves tend to be dark green with some purple shading in cooler growing conditions. When properly cured, the buds have a sticky texture that indicates high resin production.
Citrus Tropicana is particularly noted for its complex terpene profile that delivers a pronounced citrus aroma with tropical fruit undertones. The strain has become a favorite among both recreational users and cultivators due to its manageable growth characteristics and reliable effects. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Citrus Tropicana has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate flavorful, aromatic varieties with balanced psychoactive properties.

Citrus Tropicana Strain Growing Information
Citrus Tropicana is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid to late October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows for better environmental control. Plants tend to reach a medium height, usually between 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding. Some phenotypes may require support during flowering as the buds can become quite heavy.
