Moon Duck by Fygtree
Unknown
Moon Duck is a sativa-leaning hybrid cultivar developed by Fygtree, characterized by its bright aromatic profile and energetic effects. This strain is favored by consumers seeking uplifting experiences, often described as having a clean, invigorating quality.
Appearance
Moon Duck typically develops elongated, spear-like colas with a high calyx-to-leaf ratio. The buds display bright lime green coloration, often with darker undertones lower on the plant, and vivid tangerine to burnt-orange pistils. Some phenotypes may exhibit faint lavender hues on sugar leaves under cooler temperatures. The trichome density is notable for a sativa-leaning strain, with abundant capitate-stalked glands.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Moon Duck is marked by a lively citrus spritz, often perceived as lemon-lime, layered over pine and sweet herbal notes. Upon breaking apart the flower, a lemon-lime impression is prominent, supported by hints of pine and lemongrass. Secondary aromas can include green apple and a subtle eucalyptus coolness.
Flavors closely follow the aroma, beginning with bright citrus notes reminiscent of lime zest and sweet lemon candy. The mid-palate features pine and lemongrass, balanced by a mild herbal bitterness. The finish is clean and slightly sweet, sometimes likened to green apple or light tropical sorbet.
Effects
Consumers report that Moon Duck provides energetic and focused effects, aligning with its sativa-leaning characteristics. The experience is often described as clean and uplifting, making it suitable for daytime use.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
While specific cannabinoid percentages are not consistently detailed, THC is the dominant cannabinoid, with total cannabinoids frequently reported between 20-27%. Minor contributions from CBG and CBC have also been noted. The terpene profile is often dominated by terpinolene, limonene, and beta-caryophyllene, contributing to its bright aroma and flavor. Other terpenes like ocimene may also be present.
Growing
Moon Duck is considered moderately vigorous, exhibiting characteristics typical of sativa-dominant plants, such as long internodes and significant stretch after the light cycle flip. Indoor flowering typically takes 9 to 11 weeks, with potential yields of 450-550 grams per square meter. Outdoors, it finishes in mid to late October, with yields ranging from 600-900 grams per plant.
