Maui Mandarin

Maui Mandarin is a sativa dominant hybrid (80% sativa/20% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 22-28% on average, with 0.3% CBD. Seeds come in feminized form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Maui Mandarin high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. These combined effects make Maui Mandarin a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic fatigue and low mood, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Maui Mandarin has a delicious chocolate and pine 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 pine finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded bright neon green nugs, thin orange hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

In the garden, Maui Mandarin 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 Mandarin family — see Sour Mandarin Gnasher and Agent Mandarin Mocha for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
