Red Hot Delight
Also known as: Red Hot Delight OG, Red Hot Delight Kush
Red Hot Delight Strain Overview
Red Hot Delight is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from California's medicinal cannabis breeding community. The strain was developed specifically to combine the potent effects of classic OG Kush varieties with unique flavor characteristics. While its exact breeding history isn't as extensively documented as some legacy strains, it has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its balanced effects and distinctive sensory profile.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a striking appearance featuring deep green foliage contrasted by vibrant orange-red pistils. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The buds often display a slight purple hue in cooler growing conditions, adding to their visual appeal. Red Hot Delight's name reflects both its coloration and its reported spicy undertones in the flavor profile.
Red Hot Delight is considered a well-balanced hybrid that leans slightly toward indica dominance in its effects. The strain has gained popularity in both medicinal and recreational markets for its versatility and reliable performance. While not as widely cultivated as some mainstream commercial strains, it maintains a dedicated following among users who appreciate its combination of classic Kush characteristics with unique flavor notes.

Red Hot Delight Strain Growing Information
Red Hot Delight is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for intermediate to advanced growers. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to reach medium height (4-6 feet outdoors, 3-4 feet indoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. Red Hot Delight requires careful attention to humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, particularly in dense bud structures. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with sensitivity to overfeeding noted by some cultivators.
