Red Mango
Also known as: Red Mango Kush
Red Mango Strain Overview
Red Mango is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from Mango Kush and an undisclosed red phenotype strain. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding literature, it appears to have emerged in the early 2010s from boutique breeders seeking to create a flavorful, visually striking strain with balanced effects. The strain gained popularity in medical and recreational markets for its distinctive appearance and tropical flavor profile.
The strain is characterized by dense, conical buds that display a remarkable color palette. The flowers typically feature deep green foliage generously interspersed with vibrant orange and red pistils, with some phenotypes developing purple hues in cooler growing conditions. The buds are often heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Red Mango plants tend to be medium in height with a bushy structure, making them suitable for various growing environments.
Notable features include its pronounced tropical aroma and balanced effects that appeal to both recreational and medical users. The strain's name derives from both its reddish coloration and its distinct mango-like scent and flavor profile. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Red Mango has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its aesthetic appeal and well-rounded experience.

Red Mango Strain Growing Information
Red Mango is considered a moderate difficulty strain for cultivation. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in suitable environments.
The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over the environmental factors that enhance its color development. Plants tend to reach medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) with a bushy structure that may require some training or pruning for optimal light penetration.
Special considerations include maintaining slightly cooler temperatures during the final flowering weeks to encourage the development of red and purple pigments. The plants are moderately resistant to common molds and pests but require good air circulation. Nutrient requirements are average, though some growers report that the strain responds well to potassium-rich supplements during flowering to enhance terpene production and color development.
