What is the Pelo Rojo Especial strain?
Pelo Rojo Especial is a sativa cannabis strain with up to 20.0% THC, known for its happy effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
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.
