Tropicana
Also known as: Tropicanna
What is the Tropicana strain?
Tropicana is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 29.0% THC, known for its uplifted effects and berry and citrus flavor profile.
Tropicana, also known as Tropicanna, is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain created by The Social Weed in Nevada with a somewhat secretive past. Various sources report different genetics, but breeders state that it's believed to be a cross between Big Bud and White Widow, though the exact genetics are kept secret by the creators. Some sources also report it as a cross between (Pineapple X Kali Mist) X Northern Lights #5 strains, indicating potential confusion or multiple versions in circulation. The strain produces long, thin nugs with a deep green base color accented by bright orange pistils and a coating of frosty white trichomes. THC potency ranges widely from 15-17% according to breeders, though some batches have tested as high as 27-29%.
Tropicana features a sweet and sour citrusy lemon-lime flavor profile with hints of rich berries and herbs upon exhale. The aroma is very earthy and citrusy with lemon-lime overtones complemented by sweet herbal effects and rich earth undertones. The strain produces a long, slow-building effect that creeps through the mind with euphoric energy and clear-headed focus, providing a decent amount of energy without being overwhelming. Unfortunately, The Social Weed is very secretive about revealing the strain's origins and offering seeds and clones, making it nearly impossible for home growers to cultivate.

How do you grow Tropicana?
Growers report that Tropicana plants are compact and easy to look after, staying under 100cm and sometimes reaching no higher than 75cm, making the strain ideal for growing in small tents or cupboards indoors or hidden among companion plants in the garden. The strain has a short flowering period of 45-50 days, making cultivation swift and efficient for a sativa-dominant strain. Indoor yields are modest, amounting to less than 0.5 oz./ft² with controlled height that rarely exceeds 30 inches. The small stature translates to modest returns, but the quality of bud makes up for lower yields. However, seeds and clones are extremely difficult to obtain as The Social Weed keeps cultivation materials secret and unavailable to home growers.
