Mandarin Punch Feminized is 60% indica and 40% sativa. It’s been developed as part of the Sensi Seeds Research project, and produces heavy yields, both indoors and outside. The plants flower within 7 to 10 weeks. They grow well in temperate and continental climates, and have a citrus-sweet smell and taste. Users can expect an uplifting high, followed by relaxing couchlock.
Mandarin Punch Feminized cannabis seeds are 60% indica and 40% sativa. The parentage of this new strain is Maple Leaf Indica, White Widow, NYC Diesel and California Indica. It’s part of the Sensi Seeds Research Project for 2021, and gives growers the opportunity to enjoy big yields when grown in temperate or continental climates. As the name suggests, the plants produce a pleasantly sweet orange citrus aroma when growing, which carries through to the flavour.
Mandarin Punch Feminized is a fairly even balance of indica (60%) and sativa (40%) – something that is evident in the average height of the plants, and the resulting high, which is relaxing, yet uplifting. This strain was produced as part of Sensi Seeds’ 2021 Research Project, and as such, has impressive genetics. The aim of Sensi Seeds Research is to combine the best new strains with our award-winning favourites.
This is the feminized version of the strain, so there are no male plants to contend with. That makes cultivation easier, as there’s no requirement to identify or remove them before they start properly flowering.
Mandarin Punch has an average flowering time of between 7 and 10 weeks. The plants only reach average height, which makes them ideal for growing both indoors and outside. In appearance, they clearly display their indica dominance, with a sturdy central stem, and lots of leafy branches.
The yield is one of this strain’s biggest selling points. Growers can anticipate a plentiful harvest, regardless of whether the plants are being cultivated inside or out in the garden. The buds are also worthy of mention: they’re big, dense, and tend to gather around the central cola, rather than on the branches.
To generate the best possible results, it’s recommended that Mandarin Punch Feminized is grown in a continental or temperate climate. The plants respond well to certain cultivation techniques, including SCROG (Screen of Green), SOG (Sea of Green), lollipopping and supercropping.
This strain leans slightly more to the indica side, but the resulting high is a perfect balance of indica and sativa. Users can expect a rush of uplift to begin with, followed by a soothing, mellow effect. There’s a pleasing couchlock with this strain, an enjoyable sense of physical and mental relaxation.
The aroma is also very pleasant. When the plants are growing, they produce a sweet citrus scent, which remains subtle, even when the plants reach harvest-time. This makes the strain ideal for discreet growing. The taste is similarly citrus-sweet, with tropical, fruity notes.

Strain FAQ
How do breeders develop orange-flavored strains?
Breeders blend strains like chefs to boost orange flavour. By deliberately breeding plants with strong citrus qualities, they've created strains that smell and taste like an orange grove.
Has cannabis potency altered over time?
Cannabis, a decade ago, reportedly used to have less than 10% THC across the board. Modern breeding methods have quickly resulted in boosted potency with legal breeders striving to accommodate the desire for stronger and stronger cannabis strains. Where strains with 10% to 19% THC were once the strongest, we are now almost getting into 30% and beyond!
What's the deal with spectral sensitivity in 12/12 photoperiod strains?
It's fascinating to know that 12/12 photoperiod strains may have a favourite colour! Changing the light spectrum during blooming can apparently boost cannabinoid and terpene production, increasing both quality and yield.
How do single cannabis seeds improve genetic diversity?
Such a large range of single seeds supports genetic variety by allowing people to try out a huge range of different options. This is essential to help preserve cannabis DNA for future generations!
How does cannabis fit into Central American and Caribbean cultures?
Cannabis has spiritual and cultural relevance in many Central American and Caribbean societies. Jamaican Rastafarianism for instance considers cannabis a sacramental herb.
