Tanaka

Tanaka is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 22-28% on average, with 0.6% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Tanaka high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. The handoff between head and body is seamless, making it easy to dose for either a productive afternoon or a slow evening. Because of these effects, Tanaka is often chosen for managing chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

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

In the garden, Tanaka 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.
