White Orangutan
Also known as: White Orangutan OG
White Orangutan Strain Overview
White Orangutan is a relatively rare cannabis hybrid strain that combines genetics from two notable parent strains. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding literature, but it appears to have emerged from boutique breeding circles in the early 2010s. Breeders sought to create a strain with the frosty trichome coverage of White strains combined with the distinctive effects and aroma profiles of its lineage.
The strain typically produces dense, conical buds with a striking appearance characterized by bright orange pistils contrasting against a backdrop of deep green and purple hues. The most notable visual feature is the heavy coating of crystal-like trichomes that gives the buds a "white" or frosted appearance, which is where the "White" portion of its name originates. The "Orangutan" reference likely comes from both the orange pistils and the strain's reported effects.
White Orangutan is known among enthusiasts for its balanced hybrid effects and complex aromatic profile. The strain has maintained a niche following rather than achieving widespread commercial popularity, which contributes to its relative rarity in many markets. Growers appreciate its resin production, while consumers report a well-rounded experience that combines physical relaxation with cerebral stimulation.

White Orangutan Strain Growing Information
White Orangutan is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere.
Indoor yields are generally moderate to high, with experienced growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The plants tend to be medium in height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though they may require some training to manage height in confined spaces.
White Orangutan prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity, especially during flowering to prevent mold. The strain responds well to techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to increase yields. Growers should monitor nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding. Adequate airflow is important due to the dense bud structure.
