Dr. Tao Sativa

Dr. Tao Sativa is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 18-24% on average, with 0.9% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Dr. Tao Sativa high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. Neither side ever overpowers the other, which is exactly why well-bred hybrids like this one earn permanent shelf space. Because of these effects, Dr. Tao Sativa is often chosen for managing chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

Dr. Tao Sativa has a distinctive earthy and berry flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. Each exhale leaves a earthy-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has dense grape-shaped bright neon green nugs, curly amber hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

In the garden, Dr. Tao Sativa is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Tao family — see Tao Matic and Tao Purple for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
