Moscato

Moscato is a sativa dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 20-26% on average, with 0.9% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Moscato high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. Underneath the mental charge, a mellow body calm keeps things comfortable, taking the edge off without ever slowing you down. Because of these effects, Moscato is often chosen for managing mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

On the palate, expect lemon up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a lemon finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has dense grape-shaped olive green nugs with deep purple undertones, fiery orange hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

In the garden, Moscato is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Moscato family — see Upstate Moscato for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
