Moontang
Also known as: Moon Tang
Moontang Strain Overview
Moontang is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing the indica-dominant Blue Moon Rocks with the sativa-leaning Tangie. This strain emerged in the mid-2010s from breeders seeking to combine the relaxing, full-body effects of Blue Moon Rocks with the uplifting, citrus-forward profile of Tangie. The result is a strain that offers a well-rounded experience, making it popular among both recreational and medicinal users.
Visually, Moontang buds are typically dense and conical, with a structure that leans slightly indica. The flowers exhibit a vibrant green hue, often accented by deep purple and orange pistils. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty, sticky appearance, indicative of its potent resin production. The aroma is a complex blend of sweet citrus, reminiscent of tangerines, underpinned by earthy, herbal notes from its Blue Moon Rocks lineage.
Notable features of Moontang include its balanced effects and pronounced terpene profile. Users often describe it as a 'daytime hybrid' due to its ability to provide relaxation without excessive sedation. The strain has gained a following in certain cannabis communities, though it remains less widely documented than some mainstream hybrids. Its genetic heritage ensures consistency in both flavor and effect, making it a reliable choice for those familiar with its parent strains.

Moontang Strain Growing Information
Moontang is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. It has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are ready for harvest around mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain tends to produce medium to high yields, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions.
Moontang plants typically reach a medium height, making them manageable for both indoor and outdoor setups. They prefer a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors. Indoors, they respond well to techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize light exposure and yield. The plants are moderately resistant to common molds and pests, but good airflow is recommended to prevent issues in dense bud structures. Growers should note that the citrus aroma can become quite pungent during late flowering, requiring adequate odor control measures.
