Tangerine Kush Auto: A Sweet Citrus Treat
Tangerine Kush Auto seeds grow into medium to tall plants with pointy buds at the very top of the canopy. That canopy is comprised of narrow leaves and acts as a suncatcher, providing the rest of the plant with the energy it needs to grow healthy and strong. The buds of this plant are a mix of green and purple with a hint of orange hidden in the pistils. The dusty trichomes this plant sports make it appear as if it were drenched in sweet sugar and that very same crystal resin helps to produce the flavor and aroma profile that cannabis connoisseurs go nuts for. When harvested, the trichomes stick to the nuggets, making them sticky when broken up with your fingers. Tangerine Kush Auto has done well on the awards circuit, gaining recognition from THC and CBD fans. While it hasn’t taken home any major Cannabis Cup victories, it still has a solid resume within the growing community. Growers like this strain because it is no fuss and no muss. It is also a great strain for beginner growers to cut their teeth on.
Growing Tips for Our Seeds
Tangerine Kush Autoflower seeds thrive in both indoor and outdoor environments, but they particularly excel in a semi-humid, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors. As stated above, this strain is perfect for first-timers looking to break into the cannabis cultivation community. For growing Tangerine Kush Autoflower seeds, using high-quality LED grow lights or HPS lamps is recommended to ensure optimal photosynthesis and robust bud development. To determine the perfect time to harvest, look for trichomes on the buds; they should be mostly cloudy with some amber for optimal potency and flavor.
Dial in Your Growing Conditions
- Indoor or Outdoor: Tangerine Kush Auto cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by all levels of growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. During the vegetative phase, maintain a light cycle of 18 hours of light per day to promote healthy growth. Being that this strain is an Auto strain, it does not require a change in light to reach its flowering stage. It will do that automatically.
- Moisture control: Humidity levels should be kept around 40-60% during the vegetative stage, gradually decreasing to 30-40% during the flowering stage to prevent mold and promote healthy bud development.
- Training Techniques: Indoor, using soil as a growing medium can enhance the strain’s sweet flavors, while hydroponics and methods like the Sea of Green can also yield great results, especially if you are looking to maximize your harvest.

We had a 24-hour power outage during week 3. These plants didn’t even droop. Tough as nails and ready for anything.

I’ve tried many banks, but I’m staying with Growers Choice. The consistency in seed vitality and the helpful CSR team make a huge difference.
J.R Verified Buyer
Low maintenance is key for me. These seeds were resilient through a few days of neglect when I was traveling for work. Very forgiving genetics.
calmcourse Verified Buyer
Germination rate was 100%. The physiological uniformity of this batch is impressive; all five specimens exhibit identical nodal spacing and leaf morphology. Handled a slightly higher EC of 1.8 during the early vegetative phase without any visible nutrient sensitivity.

Comparing these to a competitor’s Kush auto. Growers Choice seeds have better vigor and more uniform growth. A more stable hybrid overall.
Celina R. Verified Buyer
Exploded in my DWC system. The root mass is pure white and massive. These plants love a high-oxygen environment. Heavy drinkers too!
balancedfocus Verified Buyer
My favorite seed bank now; germination and growth were rewarding and satisfying.
K.P Verified Buyer
I love growing this strain! It’s so vigorous. Every morning I open the tent and they look noticeably bigger. The vitality is just insane.
urbanmornings Verified Buyer
Seeing some beautiful deep green hues with bright orange pistils. Absolutely stunning plant for any tent.
Fiona L. Verified Buyer
Reminds me of the classics but grows in half the time. Sturdy stalks that can actually hold the weight of the colas. Feminization is spot on—no males in the bunch.
