Crouching Tiger

Crouching Tiger is a pure indica strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 16-22% on average, with 0.4% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Crouching Tiger high creeps in gently before wrapping the whole body in heavy relaxation — expect softened shoulders, slowed thoughts and a warm couch-lock that deepens as the session goes on. Even at its heaviest, a quiet euphoria hums in the background, keeping the experience warm rather than sedating from the first hit. These combined effects make Crouching Tiger a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and insomnia and other sleep disorders, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Crouching Tiger has a distinctive citrus and lemon flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a lemon finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded bright neon green nugs, thin orange hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

For growers, Crouching Tiger offers a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them — expect plants flowering in around 8 weeks, at home in controlled indoor setups. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stay compact enough for tents and small rooms, which makes canopy management straightforward. Its genetics run through the wider Crouching family — see Crouching Tiger Hidden Alien and Crouching Kai for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
