Clementine Kush by Colorado Seed
Clementine Kush by Colorado Seed Inc. is one of those sleeper hits that deserves way more hype outside the Rockies. They took their award-winning Tangerine Sunrise—a strain that basically smells like a Hawaiian vacation—and smashed it into their proprietary Gupta Kush. What you end up with is a perfectly balanced 50/50 hybrid that marries the bright, zesty citrus blast of a sativa with the heavy, musky backbone of an old-school Kush. It’s the kind of weed that fills the room with loud notes of orange blossom and lemon cleaner before you even strike a match.
On the cultivation side, this girl likes to stretch her legs. Because of that Tangerine Sunrise influence, she grows tall and lanky, making her an absolute prime candidate for SCROG setups or aggressive topping. Give her about eight or nine weeks in the flower room, and she swells up with dense, frosty nugs that absolutely reek of earthy citrus. Growers love her because she throws heavy yields if you treat her right, and the terp profile is stubbornly persistent—the taste of sweet, spicy tangerine translates perfectly from the jar right down to the roach.
The high is just straight-up functional magic. Coming in consistently around the 20% THC mark, it starts off with a clear-headed, uplifting cerebral buzz that gets your brain moving without making you paranoid. Give it twenty minutes, and the Gupta Kush kicks in, wrapping your body in a warm, physical relaxation that doesn’t staple you to the couch. It’s perfect daytime smoke for when you need to get things done but still want to feel comfortably medicated. If you're tired of the endless sea of dessert strains and want some loud, functional fruit-and-gas, Clementine Kush is the ticket.

Growing Clementine Kush: what to expect
As an indica-leaning plant, expect a modest stretch after the flip (roughly 50–100%) and dense bud structure — which makes late-flower humidity discipline the main risk: keep RH in the 40s once buds fatten to stay ahead of mold. Growers familiar with Tangerine Sunrise or Gupta Kush will recognize much of its behavior. Whatever the listing says, the cut in YOUR tent is the ground truth: log feedings, readings, and photos, and let the trends — not the label — drive decisions.
