Reina
Also known as: Queen, Reina Madre
What is the Reina strain?
Reina is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and earthy flavor profile.
Reina, Spanish for 'queen,' is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity in European and North American markets since the early 2010s. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, though most sources trace it to Spanish or Dutch breeding programs. Reina is characterized by its royal purple coloration that develops in cooler temperatures, dense resinous buds, and a complex aromatic profile that combines sweet, floral, and earthy notes. The strain's name reflects both its regal appearance and its balanced, commanding effects that many users describe as providing a sense of calm authority.
The plant typically displays indica-dominant growth patterns with broad leaves and a bushy structure, though its effects tend to be more evenly balanced between cerebral and physical sensations. Reina's buds are notably dense and covered in a thick layer of trichomes, often displaying deep purple hues interspersed with vibrant orange pistils. The strain has become particularly popular among connoisseurs for its consistent quality and reliable effects, though it remains less common than many mainstream commercial varieties.
Notable features include Reina's adaptability to various growing conditions and its relatively short flowering time compared to other high-THC strains. The strain has developed a reputation for producing consistently potent flowers with a distinctive terpene profile that sets it apart from more common hybrids. While not as widely documented as some classic strains, Reina has maintained a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate its balanced effects and complex flavor profile.

Reina is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and is ready for harvest by late September to early October outdoors. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.

The plant responds well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, reaching a medium height of 1.2-1.5 meters indoors and up to 2 meters outdoors.
