Pomelo Tangie
Pomelo Tangie is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from the Tangie lineage. Developed with a focus on high yields and productive consistency, this strain has demonstrated its genetic stability through a broad range of notable offspring including Faso de los Toros, Montevideo Gold, Pomelo Bubba, Pomelo Haze, Pomelo Jack, Ricky Espinosa, Suguzz, and TANEX. It proves suitable for cultivation in both indoor and outdoor environments, requiring a moderate level of grower expertise to reach its sixty-six day flowering maturity.
The botanical chemistry of Pomelo Tangie is defined by a complex, diverse terpene profile led by caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene. These primary constituents are layered with bisabolol, guaiol, linalool, humulene, valencene, beta-pinene, and isopulegol. Further analytical testing reveals the presence of pinene, terpinolene, nerolidol, caryophyllene-oxide, gamma-terpinene, camphene, alpha-terpinene, borneol, ocimene, geraniol, sabinene, p-cymene, and eucalyptol. This extensive chemical composition creates a distinct sensory experience centered around these specific aromatic compounds.
As a THC-dominant cultivar, Pomelo Tangie is primarily utilized for its consistent ability to induce creative, uplifted, and euphoric effects. Due to these characteristics, it is often recommended for situations requiring heightened focus or for enhancing social engagement. Its influence on modern breeding is evidenced by the wide variety of progeny it has produced, solidifying its standing as a versatile hybrid for both commercial and personal production.

●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
happy
anytimeGenetic Profile
Sativa-dominant
Primarily sativa with indica grounding. Uplifting with body relaxation.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
