Orange Tree strain guide
Orange Tree is a hybrid of 24K Gold and Orange Valley OG, known for a sweet, pungent orange smell. People most often describe it as relaxed and happy, with a lighter, creative side.
Where does Orange Tree come from?
Orange Tree is a cross of 24K Gold and Orange Valley OG. Several strain databases agree on that pairing. One strain database credits it to Greenline, and another database names Greenline Organics Group as its source.
Its type is a little unsettled. One strain database files it as a hybrid, another database as indica-leaning, and the breeder's own description calls it sativa-dominant. Either way, both parents bring citrus, so the name fits.
What does Orange Tree smell and taste like?
Orange is the headline: sweet and pungent, like peeled fruit, with broader citrus and a touch of tropical. Underneath, one strain database mentions earthy, herbal, pine and woody notes, and a sour edge on the finish.
One strain database lists caryophyllene as its top terpene, followed by myrcene and terpinolene. Caryophyllene adds a peppery edge, myrcene an earthy base and terpinolene a fresh, piney lift.
Orange Tree effects: what people report
People most often describe Orange Tree as relaxed and happy, with a calm body feel and an uplifted, sometimes creative mood. One strain database mentions a tingly body high. It's generally described as easygoing rather than heavy.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. Dry mouth is the most reported complaint.
How strong is Orange Tree?
Published listings put Orange Tree at about 18% to 24% THC, with one strain database at 23% and another database around 19% to 20%. CBD is minimal.
That's mid-range for today's strains, but still worth starting small. The THC and CBD on your product's label matter more than the strain name.
Buying Orange Tree in Canada
Orange Tree isn't widely grown, so it may take some searching. If the product lists 24K Gold and Orange Valley OG, you're looking at the original cross.
Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since citrus aromas fade fastest as flower ages.
Orange Tree vs 24K Gold
24K Gold is one of Orange Tree's parents, a DNA Genetics cross of Kosher Kush and Tangie. Both smell strongly of orange and citrus, and their published THC ranges are nearly identical. Orange Tree's terpene results lean on caryophyllene and terpinolene, while 24K Gold's lean on myrcene and pinene, so 24K Gold can read a touch earthier and Orange Tree a little brighter. Both get called happy and relaxed. Either is a good pick if you want a citrus-forward hybrid.
