Mango Sherbet
Mango Sherbet
Also known as: Mango Sherbert
Overview
Mango Sherbet is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created through crossing Mango Trees, Mango Kush, and Sherbet (also listed as Sunset Sherbet in some sources). Bred by Humboldt Seed Company, this strain emerged from the evolution of dessert-forward cannabis that gained popularity in California during the 2010s. The strain represents a logical expression of combining old-school tropical fruit flavors with new-school confectionery terpenes from the renowned Cookies family genetics. Mango Sherbet is characterized by its dense, resin-heavy buds that display vibrant forest green coloration with long thin orange hairs and a thick coating of frosty amber crystal trichomes. The strain has been stabilized into multiple breeding lines, with some focusing on resin and color for extract artists while others prioritize yield and vigor for commercial flower production. Known for its exceptional bag appeal and terpene-rich profile, Mango Sherbet has become a modern classic that champions both flavor and potency without an overpowering sedative edge.

Growing Information
Mango Sherbet is considered moderately beginner-friendly but requires attention to environmental conditions for optimal results. The strain has a flowering time of 50-55 days (7-8 weeks), making it a relatively fast-finishing variety. Plants respond well to LST (Low Stress Training) and SCRoG (Screen of Green) techniques, rewarding growers with high yields when basic cultivation requirements are met. The strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments, requiring full-spectrum lighting, controlled humidity (40-45% late in flower to enhance terpene production), and proper airflow. Plants exhibit vigorous growth with dense, resin-heavy colas and can reach medium to large sizes. Late-flower humidity control is crucial to prevent bud rot and maximize terpene profiles. The strain shows good resistance to common garden pests and has reliable structure, making it suitable for both novice and experienced cultivators.
