Genetics & Lab Data
California Orange and Skunk-1 are veteran strains, married together for their orange flavors, scents, and powerful effects. California Orange has been around since 1980. It is an old-school strain with a speculated linage that gives Tangie its potentially energetic and tangerine-like traits. Skunk-1, an even older strain with origins dating back to 1970, may provide the strain with its potentially creative and equally energetic properties.
