What is the Maui Gold strain?
Maui Gold is a sativa cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its uplifted effects and citrus and pineapple flavor profile.
Maui Gold is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain developed by SnowHigh Seeds, representing a refined expression of Hawaiian genetics. This strain draws its lineage from a cross between The Maui (itself a hybrid of Maui and Afghani) and a Maui Wowie male, creating a complex Hawaiian poly-hybrid that captures the essence of tropical island cannabis culture. The strain takes its name from the sweet pineapples grown on the Lahaina side of West Maui, bringing users back to that island vibe with a tropical taste reminiscent of pineapple and old school Killer Green Bud. Classified as a 60/40 sativa/indica hybrid with medium-tall plant height, Maui Gold exhibits the classic sativa structure while maintaining some indica influence for balance. The strain is described as a tropical delight offering an aromatic and flavor profile that instantly transports users to the sun-kissed beaches of Hawaii, bursting with the sweetness of ripe pineapple and a citrus zing. This cultivar represents a modern interpretation of classic Hawaiian landrace genetics, carefully preserved and enhanced through selective breeding to maintain the authentic tropical character while improving consistency and cultivation traits.

Maui Gold has a relatively fast flowering time of 63-70 days, though some sources indicate a longer flowering period of 9-14 weeks (63-98 days) when grown indoors or outdoors. The strain produces moderate to large yields and grows to medium-tall height with a 60/40 sativa/indica ratio. Seeds are available only as regular (non-feminized), making them ideal for experienced growers looking to produce both male and female plants.
