Red Tropicana Cookies is a feminised photoperiod cross of two vigorous and potent sisters from a Sour Tropicana Cookies selection. In the offspring of this USA cannabis strain you will find characteristics of Sour Diesel, Tropicana and Cookie genetics.

The mother in this cross is a fast-growing Sativa with compact buds and a unique appearance. During the growth phase she develops beautiful slender leaves with a red vein in the centre of the leaf, this is where she gets her ‘Red’ name from. In late bloom the leaves can darken, and the completely white buds stand out beautifully against the dark coloured leaves.

The father is a (reversed) female cannabis plant that is known for beautiful, purple-coloured buds with a special aroma. These can sometimes be red, purple or even pink hues and these ladies are both a pleasure to look at and to smell during flowering!

This is certainly not your standard weed smell, intense notes of fruit, cream and cookie dough are complemented by a certain funkiness from the Sour Diesel parent. This really takes the taste to a new level. Pungent sweet and sour notes contrast with chemical notes of gasoline & jet-fuel. The most dominant terpenes in this cross are caryophyllene, linalool, humulene, limonene and myrcene (in no particular order).

The flowering time averages between 63 and 70 days. Indoor growers can expect plants with a good stretch when the light cycle is switched to 12/12. Red Tropicana Cookies also does very well in a greenhouse or an outdoor grow in warm and dry areas! She always remains controllable (especially for a Sativa) and her height can be further controlled by snapping, bending or (super)cropping. Due to her Sativa leaf and growth profile she is perfectly suited to a SCROG grow.

In terms of potency, she averages between 19-23% THC, but there are known outliers that have exceeded 26%! Although she has an extremely high THC level, the effect of this strain remains relaxed and chilled. She is slightly euphoric and energetic but never becomes too trippy or racy.

Red Tropicana Cookies R1 is a new limited edition from Dutch Passion made in collaboration with Antonio especially for 420 in 2025.
