By back crossing the original seeds brought back from the West Coast almost 40 years ago, we were able to recreate all the best traits from this lady, making her extremely uniform and homogenous. We were capable of enhancing the yields and terpene profile of the parental line even further, making this strain ideal for commercial growers.
A great choice for beginner growers as she does not stretch much once flowering starts, making her ideal for indoor growers with limited height.
The flowering period can take up to 65-70 days; however, she is well worth the wait and will reward you with big frosted buds, with orange and pink hairs wrapped around. A beautiful strain that is a real head turner and has incredible bag appeal in terms of appearance and aroma.
Outdoors, she stays short and stocky and will produce thick side branches and short internodal spacing. We recommend plant the California Orange Bud seeds outdoors in spring time, harvesting front the middle to end of October, depending on climate.
An old school variety that has a strong resistance to spider mites and powdery mildew. She can endure drought conditions and heat stress with no real issues.
Some phenotypes will finish flowering within 63-65 days, with the largest sized plants requiring a full 70 days. The buds will swell and become thick and dense, so we advise using a microscope to check the trichomes up close.
Growers who live in a hot climate will finish with rock solid buds in 63 days, with some plants requiring a week more before being ready. We recommend planting outdoors in a South-facing location for best results, and to ensure the plants receive the most sunlight over the seasons.
Yields of 550 g/m² (1,8 oz per square foot) are possible with this hybrid, and we strongly recommend growing in a Sea of Green for maximum production. She is an excellent strain for growing in small-sized pots, such as 10 liter (2 gallon) pots.
It is possible to harvest 1000 grams (35.5 oz) per plant outdoors when grown from spring until the fall.
California Orange Bud Feminized will grow displaying indica and sativa traits finishing around 125 cm (49.2 inches) tall making her a well-balanced hybrid, that grows medium height. As she is a big-yielding cultivar, her growth structure will remain more bushy than tall, as she fills out with plenty of vegetative growth.
We recommend California Orange Bud for growers who enjoy training their plants, she has incredible potential. Topping and tying down will produce the most productive plants, and we advise pruning the lower 75% of growth before flowering to improve airflow and induce a top-heavy canopy.

Strain FAQ
What gives Earthy tasting strains their natural scent?
The terpene myrcene gives earthy cannabis strains their unique scent, which has herbaceous, musky, and earthy clove-like aromas. Myrcene can also reportedly boost other properties of particular strains.
How do IBL strains affect hybrid cannabis breeding?
New hybrid strains need IBL strains as genetic foundations. Their genetic purity and stability make them suitable for crossbreeding because they can predictably pass on desired qualities to hybrids. Breeders can regulate and efficiently develop new strains this way.
Why are regular seeds seen as more exciting?
Regular seeds are seen as exciting because of their unpredictability. Each seed is a mystery of different phenotypes, potentially growing into plants with unique taste, scent, and many other factors.
How are photoperiod cannabis strains different to autoflowering ones?
Here's where things get interesting: auto-flowering strains switch to flowering mode with age, but 12/12 photoperiod strains need a light trigger. This allows legal growers to fine-tune the light schedule, potentially improving yields and quality.
Do strains listed as suitable for outdoor growth have resistance to pests and diseases?
Being out in the wild, outdoor cannabis strains face a barrage of environmental stressors, from bugs to fluctuating weather. This tough love from Mother Nature prompts them to ramp up their production of terpenes and cannabinoids, which serve as their shield against these threats. It's a fascinating survival strategy that not only makes the plants hardier but is also said to improve the aroma and flavor of the buds!
