Vietnamese/Mexican
Also known as: Vietnamese x Mexican, Hoa Bac x Cabo San Lucas
What is the Vietnamese/Mexican strain?
Vietnamese/Mexican is a sativa cannabis strain, known for its cerebral effects and chocolate and citrus flavor profile.
Vietnamese/Mexican is a pure sativa hybrid created by Equilibrium Genetics, crossing two distinct landrace lineages: Hoa Bac Silver Flower, a sativa heirloom collected in Vietnam in the 1990's, given to Reeferman Seeds by a friend who wanted to promote the best cannabis genetics from Vietnam, and Cabo San Lucas, a Sativa from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico that is a medium stretchy, wide leaf plant with dense flowers that smell of chocolate and spice. The Vietnamese parent's origins are from the Comere people of Vietnam, who are originally from Cambodia, which causes Hoa Bac Silver Flower to grow similar to Cambodian varieties. It is chunky, early finishing for a pure Sativa and has wider leaves, with flowers that smell of rotten fruit. This strain represents a unique fusion of Southeast Asian and Mexican sativa genetics, offering users a complex heritage that combines the cerebral intensity of Vietnamese landrace with the earthy, spicy characteristics of Mexican coastal genetics.

How do you grow Vietnamese/Mexican?
This strain will stretch during flowering but nothing like the extent of Thai strains, more like a well behaved Haze strain, with a flowering time of 11-13 weeks indoors. This variety is best grown out as larger individual plants or trained for trellising or ScRoG (screen of green) growing methods due to its naturally widely branched tendencies, however if put into flowering early with reasonable planting densities and some pruning it can be grown productively as a more compact plant. The recommendation is to let them get big and prune to concentrate production into budding sites receiving lots of light. Growers should go light on fertilizers and be patient, as it can be tempting to harvest early, but the yield and quality increase exponentially as the plants mature. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with outdoor plants preferring warm, subtropical climates.
