LA Cats Strain Overview
LA Cats is a relatively rare cannabis strain that emerged from the Los Angeles cannabis scene, though its exact origins remain somewhat obscure. The strain is believed to have been developed by local breeders in Southern California, drawing from popular West Coast genetics to create a balanced hybrid with distinctive characteristics. While not as widely documented as more commercial strains, LA Cats has maintained a cult following among connoisseurs who appreciate its unique profile and reliable effects.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a striking appearance characterized by deep green foliage contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of frosty trichomes. The buds often have a slightly conical shape with tight, compact structure. LA Cats is noted for its resinous quality, making it popular among extract artists and concentrate producers in the California market.
What sets LA Cats apart is its balanced genetic profile that provides both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation without overwhelming either aspect. The strain has gained particular attention for its consistency and reliability, with users reporting predictable effects across different phenotypes. While not as commercially widespread as some California strains, LA Cats remains a respected choice among experienced consumers who value its nuanced effects and complex flavor profile.

LA Cats Strain Growing Information
LA Cats is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October.

The strain prefers a Mediterranean climate when grown outdoors and responds well to both soil and hydroponic setups. Plants tend to stay medium in height (3-5 feet indoors, 5-7 feet outdoors) with good lateral branching. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold and providing adequate support for the dense buds. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and LST (low-stress training).
