Monkey Tracks
What is the Monkey Tracks strain?
Monkey Tracks is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Monkey Tracks is a relatively rare hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the late 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding circles, but it is generally accepted to be a carefully selected phenotype from a larger breeding project focused on creating balanced hybrids with unique terpene profiles. Breeders aimed to combine the cerebral effects of sativa-dominant strains with the physical relaxation of indica varieties, resulting in this moderately balanced hybrid.
The strain's name references both its genetic lineage and its distinctive bud structure. Monkey Tracks produces medium to large-sized buds that are typically dense and resinous, with a structure that some cultivators describe as having 'tracks' or patterns of trichome development. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to olive hues, often with vibrant orange pistils weaving through the buds. The trichome coverage is typically generous, giving the buds a frosty appearance that hints at its potency.
Monkey Tracks has gained a small but dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its complex flavor profile and balanced effects. While not as widely available as commercial mainstream strains, it has maintained a presence in certain regional markets and among home growers who value its unique characteristics. The strain's rarity means that comprehensive laboratory testing data is limited, with most information coming from grower reports and user experiences rather than extensive scientific analysis.

How do you grow Monkey Tracks?
Monkey Tracks is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-700 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The plants exhibit hybrid growth patterns, reaching medium heights of 4-6 feet indoors and 5-8 feet outdoors. They respond well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though they prefer a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures when grown outside. The strain benefits from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. Growers should monitor humidity levels carefully during flowering, as the dense buds can be susceptible to mold in overly humid conditions. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some sensitivity to overfeeding during the vegetative stage.
