Also known as: Tangerine Truffle
Tangerine Truffles Strain Overview
Tangerine Truffles is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed through selective breeding to combine the distinctive citrus characteristics of its parent strains with a balanced, versatile effect profile. The strain was created by crossing Tangerine Dream, a sativa-dominant hybrid known for its bright citrus aromas and uplifting effects, with an undisclosed truffle or dessert-themed indica strain, which contributes to its relaxing physical properties and complex flavor profile. This combination results in a plant that exhibits both sativa and indica traits, making it popular among users seeking a well-rounded experience.
The strain is characterized by its dense, resinous buds that display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues, often accented by bright orange pistils. A thick coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty appearance, indicative of its high cannabinoid content. The most notable feature of Tangerine Truffles is its pronounced citrus aroma, which combines sweet tangerine notes with earthy, chocolate-like undertones reminiscent of its namesake dessert. The flavor profile similarly blends sweet citrus with earthy, sometimes spicy notes, creating a complex sensory experience that has contributed to its popularity among connoisseurs.
Tangerine Truffles has gained recognition in cannabis communities for its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile, though it remains less widely documented than some mainstream commercial strains. The strain's genetics have been stabilized by several breeders, resulting in consistent characteristics across different growing operations. While not as historically significant as some classic strains, Tangerine Truffles represents the ongoing trend in cannabis breeding toward developing strains with specific flavor profiles and balanced effect combinations, appealing to both recreational users and those seeking particular sensory experiences.

Tangerine Truffles Strain Growing Information
Tangerine Truffles is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. 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 are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and up to 200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure, and providing adequate support for branches as the resinous buds can become heavy. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration.
