About Tangerine Dream
Tangerine Dream is a sativa-leaning strain bred by Barney’s Farm from G13 and Neville’s A5 Haze. It won top honors at the 2010 High Times Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam and has since become a familiar name in legal markets across the US and Canada.
The aroma is bright and juicy, with fresh tangerine, sweet citrus and a light earthy undertone. Buds are usually long and fluffy, lime green with orange hairs and a sticky layer of trichomes. Myrcene often adds fruity, musky depth, limonene can bring out the zesty citrus, and caryophyllene may contribute a hint of spice.
People often report Tangerine Dream as energetic, uplifted and happy, with a clear, focused head feel and light body ease. Many choose it for daytime activities, chores or social plans. THC usually ranges from 17% to 24%, and CBD is typically below 1%.
Tangerine Dream can suit intermediate consumers looking for a cheerful daytime strain, while newer users may prefer smaller amounts. Start low, go slow, and check the lab results on the package before you buy. Use WhereLeaf to find Tangerine Dream at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you.
