24k Tangie by Bsb Genetics
Kosher Kush × Tangie
24K Tangie is a mostly indica cannabis cultivar developed by BSB Genetics. It is a hybrid cross between the well-regarded Kosher Kush and Tangie strains. This cultivar is recognized for its prominent citrus aroma and a THC potency that typically ranges from the high teens to the mid-twenties.
Appearance
24K Tangie typically produces medium-sized, dense colas with a conical structure, leaning towards an indica phenotype. The buds are characterized by layered calyx clusters and are often heavily dusted with trichomes, giving them a frosted appearance. Bud coloration can range from lime to forest green, sometimes displaying purple streaks, with vibrant orange pistils.
The flowers are noted for their significant resin production, with trichome heads often appearing cloudy to amber by harvest, indicating substantial cannabinoid and terpene accumulation. Cured buds tend to feel dense and weighty for their size, breaking apart with a sticky texture due to high resin content.
Aroma and Flavor
The aroma of 24K Tangie is strongly characterized by a citrus-forward bouquet, featuring notes of fresh tangerine and sweet orange rind, with subtle mandarin undertones. Secondary aromas include hints of pepper, pine, and herbaceous kush, providing depth to the profile. Grinding the flower intensifies these citrus oils, releasing sharper limonene notes and occasional hints of grapefruit and sweet candy.
Upon inhalation, the flavor delivers a clean taste of sweet tangerine and orange blossom, often followed by a peppery, herbal finish. Some users may detect underlying notes of diesel or skunk, reflecting its kush lineage. The overall flavor profile is a complex blend of sweet citrus and spicy, earthy undertones.
Effects
The effects of 24K Tangie are generally described as relaxing in the body while promoting an uplifted, clear-headed mood early on. As the experience progresses, these initial effects tend to taper into a calm and content state. The strain's versatility allows for different experiences depending on the dosage.
In smaller amounts, the limonene-rich top notes can contribute to a motivating and social sensation. In larger doses or for evening use, the indica-dominant genetics may lead to a more pronounced physical ease, making it suitable for both daytime and nighttime routines.
Terpenes and Cannabinoids
24K Tangie is known for its pronounced limonene signature, balanced by other significant terpenes such as myrcene and beta-caryophyllene. Valencene is also frequently mentioned in its terpene profile. The THC content commonly ranges between 18% and 24%, with CBD levels typically below 1%.
The breeding process focused on retaining these volatile citrus terpenes, resulting in a cultivar with robust resin coverage. The combination of cannabinoids and terpenes contributes to the strain's distinct aroma, flavor, and reported effects.
Origins and Lineage
24K Tangie was bred by BSB Genetics as a cross between Kosher Kush, an indica-dominant strain, and Tangie, a sativa-leaning cultivar. This hybridization aimed to combine the structural density and potency of Kosher Kush with the bright citrus aroma and euphoric lift of Tangie.
The goal was to create a terpene-rich strain with a prominent orange profile that maintained desirable cultivation traits like yield and bag appeal. Kosher Kush is known for its award-winning resin production and relaxation, while Tangie is celebrated for its intense citrus terpene profile, reminiscent of 1990s Tangerine Dream.
Cultivation
24K Tangie is recognized for its reliable indoor performance and a relatively brisk flowering window, typically between 9 to 10 weeks. BSB Genetics reports potential yields of around 550 g/m² under optimized indoor conditions. The plant structure often exhibits indica-like traits such as tighter internode spacing and thicker calyx-to-leaf ratios.
The strain can present two broad phenotypical expressions: one leaning more towards Tangie with explosive orange aromatics and slightly taller stature, and another leaning towards Kosher Kush with chunkier colas, stronger fuel undertones, and higher resin density. Both phenos generally benefit from careful selection for terpene retention and resin coverage during breeding.
