Pelo Rojo Especial
Also known as: Special Red Hair
Pelo Rojo Especial Strain Overview
Pelo Rojo Especial is a sativa variety from SnowHigh Seeds and can be cultivated indoors and outdoors. This strain is a cross between Mexican Punta Roja (red hair) and Colombian Punto Rojo (red hair), representing the best of the red tip sativas from the Americas. The strain represents a careful preservation of classic landrace genetics that were highly sought after during the 1970s and 1980s.
Pelo Rojo Especial maintains the characteristics of its parent strains, both of which are known for their distinctive red pistils (hair-like structures) that give the strain its name. The most genuine element of this variety is the presence of "red points" or "red dots" in the flower pistils from where it gets its name. The strain produces tall, vigorous plants typical of pure sativa genetics, with the distinctive reddish-orange hair coloration that was prized in traditional Mexican and Colombian cannabis varieties. This cross represents SnowHigh Seeds' effort to preserve and combine two of the most legendary "red hair" landrace varieties from the Americas.

Pelo Rojo Especial Strain Growing Information
Long vegetative period and an even longer flowering time as these varieties tend to flower when they are ready. Flowering time is around 14-16 weeks, though some go even longer - 18-20+ weeks. This is a challenging strain for novice growers due to the extended flowering period typical of pure sativas. The plants can grow very tall and are best suited for outdoor cultivation in warm, sunny climates, though indoor cultivation is possible with adequate space and experience. The strain requires patience but rewards growers with the classic effects and aromas of legendary landrace genetics. Plants are generally hardy and pest-resistant when grown in appropriate conditions.
