Corn x AE77 Cali Orange crosses Corn with California Orange. What is documented is California Orange: a 1980s heirloom off 1970s California stock, inbred ever since, and CSI run the AE77 cut of it. What is not is Corn, and that half is a matter of growing it out.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Corn. CSI keep this one in house. Cuts like it live inside a working collection rather than in strain databases, which is why the only real account of what it does is the plants themselves.
• Father: California Orange. A 1980s heirloom off 1970s California stock, inbred ever since, and CSI run the AE77 cut of it. Parentage: a 50/50 hybrid crossed in the 1980s.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

• The Aroma. Actual orange peel rather than candied citrus, sitting on damp earth.
• The Taste. Bright citrus zest with a sweet-earth finish.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. Compact and very resinous with a good flower-to-leaf ratio; resilient to common pests and disease; easy to grow and among the easiest plants there is to clone.
• Training. Worth the effort early - it is the difference between an even canopy and three colas and a lot of leaf.
• Flowering Time. California Orange runs around nine weeks. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe California Orange as bright and even rather than heavy.
• The Body. Reported in line with that. This is not a plant described as pulling in two directions.

Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. Humboldt CSI are preservationists before they are breeders - most of what they release is a clone somebody has kept alive by hand for years, put into seed so it stops depending on one grower staying in the game. That is what you are buying into here. Humboldt CSI original genetics.
