Also known as: Trop Zkittlez, Tropicana Zkittlez
What is the Tropical Zkittlez strain?
Tropical Zkittlez is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its happy effects and candy and citrus flavor profile.
Tropical Zkittlez is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that represents a fruit-forward descendant of the award-winning Zkittlez family, prized for candy-like aromatics and a buoyant, mood-lifting experience. Created by Tiki Madman, this strain combines the sativa hybrid Tropicana Cookies with the indica-leaning hybrid Forbidden Zkittlez. The strain earned its reputation through winning 1st place at the 2016 Emerald Cup and 1st place in the Indica Hybrids category at the 2015 Cannabis Cup in both San Francisco and Michigan.
Visually, Tropical Zkittlez produces fat nugs with olive green leaves, a violet base, plentiful pistils, and a chunky layer of white crystal trichomes. The buds display a spectrum of bright greens and slight purple hues, along with a layer of trichomes that give it a shiny appearance not unlike coated candy. The strain earned its name thanks to its unique terpene profile, which gives Tropical Zkittlez a mouth-watering citrus candy scent and flavor. This flavor identity helps distinguish it in tastings; panels frequently identify it by the mixture of mango-pineapple candy and a soft floral finish.
The strain's cultivation characteristics include a mostly indica structure that can be cultivated indoors and outdoors, requiring a flowering time of approximately 56 days. The strain's approachable, happy mood effect broadens appeal to both novice and experienced consumers, with newcomers appreciating the unmistakable fruit-candy profile while enthusiasts enjoy the nuanced floral-cream undertones.

How do you grow Tropical Zkittlez?
Tropical Zkittlez is a mostly indica strain that can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, with a flowering time of approximately 56 days (8 weeks). Most phenotypes are extremely colorful and easy to grow in any environment, with deeper colors having a better chance to appear with lower temperatures and full spectrum light. The strain performs extremely well in outdoor growing seasons. Plants tend to be tall with a slight stretch when put into bloom, but their stalks are generally strong and will need that extra stretch to make room for massive buds. When grown correctly, these plants yield extremely well and bring out color towards the end of their life cycle. Indoor cultivation is suitable for experienced growers, while the strain adapts well to tropical, warm climates when grown outdoors. When pushed correctly, growers can expect deep expressions of pinks and purples in most phenotypes.
