Kalité Le Roche
Also known as: Kalite Le Roche
Kalité Le Roche Strain Overview
Kalité Le Roche is a historic hybrid cannabis strain created around 1989 in the south of Reunion Island, more precisely at Ravine des Cabris by the late cultivator known as Tonton Bébé. This strain represents one of the first hybrids developed on the island and has significant historical importance in Reunion's cannabis culture. The strain is directly derived from the first generation of Skunk #1 from the 1970s crossed with Mangue Karot, an 1980s hybrid that was itself created in 1989. Through careful preservation efforts, breeders were able to maintain an extremist phenotype through the regeneration process known as 1989 F16.
As a hybrid of two legendary strains, Kalité Le Roche combines the stability and balanced effects of Skunk #1 with the unique tropical characteristics of Mangue Karot, a famous Zamal landrace from Reunion Island. The Mangue Karot parent brings exotic mango and carrot flavors along with energizing sativa effects, while the Skunk #1 genetics contribute to the strain's reliability, moderate potency, and balanced indica-sativa effects. This combination creates a strain that embodies both the classic cannabis genetics of the 1970s-80s era and the unique terroir of Reunion Island's cannabis culture.

Kalité Le Roche Strain Growing Information
Kalité Le Roche requires experienced cultivation skills due to its landrace Zamal genetics. Indoor flowering time is typically 100-130 days, reflecting its sativa heritage from the Mangue Karot parent. The strain benefits from warm, tropical growing conditions and does not perform well with low temperatures during germination. Indoor growers should consider using clones and putting them directly into 12/12 light cycle to manage stretch. Outdoor cultivation can produce substantial yields when grown in appropriate climates. The strain shows good resistance to mold and mildew during most of the flowering period but may become susceptible in late flowering stages, requiring careful humidity monitoring.
