How do you grow Tahoe Animal?
Tahoe Animal is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for intermediate to experienced growers. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready around mid-October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plants tend to grow to medium height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Tahoe Animal can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows for better environmental control. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors, with consistent temperatures and low humidity during flowering. Special considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure, and careful nutrient management as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training can help maximize yields and manage height.
