Pu Tang has balanced effects.

Pu Tang is a modern hybrid cannabis strain derived from Tangie. This cultivar has established a significant role in modern breeding, serving as foundational genetics for a wide array of progeny, including Swabi, Moby Grape Bx1, PuTang Nevil Chem, Axle Grease, Cambodian Putang, Cuntz, Dark Putang, FiveStar x PuTang, Garlic Kiska, Glory Hole, GluTang, and Golden PuTang. Designed for both indoor and outdoor environments, the plant exhibits moderate cultivation difficulty and maintains a 60-day flowering period while producing a high yield.

The chemical profile of Pu Tang is THC-dominant and defined by an extensive terpene hierarchy, led by caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene. This complex arrangement continues with bisabolol, guaiol, linalool, humulene, valencene, beta-pinene, and isopulegol. The secondary and trace terpene profile includes pinene, terpinolene, nerolidol, caryophyllene-oxide, gamma-terpinene, camphene, alpha-terpinene, borneol, ocimene, geraniol, sabinene, p-cymene, and eucalyptol. This diverse combination creates a nuanced sensory experience driven by the interplay of these specific secondary metabolites.

In practice, this strain is recognized for its ability to induce effects characterized as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These therapeutic attributes make the cultivar suitable for addressing issues related to stress, pain, and sleep. As a verified modern hybrid, Pu Tang continues to exert its genetic influence across various contemporary projects, maintaining a consistent reputation for its specific effect profile and reliable cultivation outputs.
