CBD Mango Haze
Mango Haze × High-CBD genetics
CBD Mango Haze is a hybrid cannabis strain developed in the early 2010s, aiming to balance THC with CBD for broader accessibility. It is most commonly attributed to CBD Crew, a collaboration between Shantibaba of Mr. Nice Seedbank and Jaime of Resin Seeds. This cultivar retains the aromatic qualities of its Mango Haze parent while moderating the intensity of its effects.
Appearance
CBD Mango Haze exhibits a sativa-leaning structure with elongated internodes and narrow leaves. Plants typically grow between 90-140 cm indoors and 180-250 cm outdoors. The buds form as tapering spears, often showing light foxtailing, and are medium in density. Coloration includes lime and apple-green bracts with vivid orange pistils, and cooler temperatures may introduce faint lavender hues. Robust trichome coverage gives the buds a sparkling appearance.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of CBD Mango Haze is characterized by ripe mango, tropical fruit, and sweet citrus notes, with hints of pineapple and passionfruit. Upon grinding, a distinct candy-like aroma is released. Underlying this fruitiness is a peppery, herbal layer, with some phenotypes exhibiting a gentle floral or lavender nuance. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, offering a complex blend of mango, sweet citrus, and herbal undertones.
Effects
CBD Mango Haze is known for producing an uplifting and energetic cerebral experience, often described as a bright focus. It provides a palpable sense of body ease with minimal mental fog or sedation. This balanced effect profile makes it suitable for daytime use and for individuals sensitive to higher THC concentrations.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This strain is noted for its balanced cannabinoid profile, often presenting a CBD:THC ratio ranging from 1:1 to 1.5:1. Key terpenes found in CBD Mango Haze include Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Pinene, and Terpinolene. These contribute to its distinct aroma and flavor, as well as its functional effects.
Growing
CBD Mango Haze is considered adaptable and manageable for indoor cultivation, typically finishing in 9-11 weeks. Its sativa-like structure with spaced nodes helps resist mold, making it viable in humid environments. Yields are generally medium-high, with indoor growers reporting 450-600 g/m² and outdoor plants producing 500-800 g per plant. It benefits from topping or training to manage its stretch.
Origins & Lineage
CBD Mango Haze originates from the early 2010s breeding efforts by CBD Crew, a collaboration between Shantibaba of Mr. Nice Seedbank and Jaime of Resin Seeds. It is derived from Mango Haze (a cross of Northern Lights 5, Skunk 1, and Haze) and high-CBD parent stock, possibly related to Cannatonic. The breeding goal was to maintain the fruity aroma and energetic profile of Mango Haze while introducing a significant CBD content for balanced effects.
