Picante

Picante is a sativa dominant hybrid (60% sativa/40% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 12-18% on average, with 0.7% CBD. It is sold as feminized seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Picante 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. These combined effects make Picante a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic fatigue and low mood, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Picante has a distinctive diesel and lemon flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a lemon finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded forest green nugs with cool blue undertones, thin orange hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

In the garden, Picante is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in around 8 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.
