Tropical Tangie vs. other citrus strains: a comparative analysis

Tropical Tangie is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain with a famously zesty tropical citrus aroma. Yields are heavy and the stress-busting effects are appreciated by all who grew her. But the main reason for so many repeat Tropical Tangie growers is the refreshing, sweet taste of tropical fruit and tangerines. Here's how Tropical Tangie stacks up against two Dutch Passion heavyweights which also have a citrus-rich terpene profile, Passion Fruit and Amsterdam Amnesia.
What is tangie cannabis?
For Tangie connoisseurs, a true Tangie strain is one that contains original Tangie genetics and produces buds with that distinctive sour citrus/tangerine aroma and sweet flavour. A fully loaded terpene profile is, of course, not quite enough for a strain to become a repeat best-seller. A good Tangie strain will deliver THC levels around 20% and slap delightfully hard. Yields will be respectable/heavy and the genetics tend to be uncomplicated to grow.
Dutch Passion’s Tropical Tangie cannabis strain story
Dutch Passion’s Tropical Tangie was created by crossing two exceptional (Tangie x Tangie) individuals which were identified after an extensive ‘pheno hunt’ following a large grow-out. She is available only in feminised cannabis seeds. She grows well both with the SOG method and SCROG method. The mouth-watering Tropical Tangie buds also have chemical/fuel notes making for exceptional jar-appeal.

Two other Dutch Passion strains with rich citrus-dominant terpene profiles are Passion Fruit and Amsterdam Amnesia. Like Tropical Tangie, both combine a cannabis-cup winning genetic heritage and are proven, popular cannabis seeds with commercial & home growers. Here is a comparison of their main features:
