Strain Integrity

From the OCS, ” Expect a sweet citrus bomb from this sativa! Orange rinds, fresh lemons and a hint of cream dominate this strain’s scent profile. Orange Tree is an exceptionally strong strain. This strain is born out of a cross between 24k Gold and Orange Valley OG. Terpene percentage is between 2.5% and 5% for this banger of a strain going as high as 6% during our phenotype trials. We flush our plants for two full weeks to ensure the purest flavour possible. Every strain we cultivate is hand harvested, hang dried and hand trimmed with a minimum cure of three weeks. ”

According to Leafly, ” Orange Tree is a hybrid marijuana strain made by crossing 24k Gold and Orange Valley OG. This strain is popular among citrus lovers for its bold, orange flavors. When smoked, this strain envelops your senses in a sweet, orange aroma that will make you feel as if you’re walking through an orange tree orchard. Orange Tree produces effects that are calming and relaxing…. ”

Exactly as Expected

Orange Tree by Costa Canna (United Greeneries) packaged on January 7, 2023, cost $37.94 for 3.5 grams with 28.8% THC 3.2% Total Terpenes and a strong scent of Orange.  Our test amount was 0.26 gram.

With the scent of Oranges, Orange Tree’s “high” starts during inhalation and takes off immediately at the end.  Over the first 10 minutes, Orange Tree delivers a Cerebral Extravaganza boosted by Euphoric Excitement and Energy to run a Marathon.  This is Exactly as Expected, which is a Treat.

In the great outdoors, Orange Tree started with a clear elevating euphoric “high” for the first half hour.  Slowly, Orange Tree’s “high” transform to a hazy mind numbing body tranquilization “high” over the next hour.  Did someone say “Run a Marathon?”  That’s Crazy with heavy Indica effects popping out in Bright Sunlight, which is totally unexpected.

Activity pairing is best as a SuperNatural Coffee replacement to boost Reality to the Next Level.  Orange Tree is Exactly as Expected … an intense wakeful cerebral euphoric “high” with an Indica endpoint … The Scent of Oranges.

Conclusion

Orange Tree by Costa Canna (United Greeneries)

Costa Canna produces great quality Flowers at astronomically high prices.  This review, however, was motivated by a 24% Price Reduction.   As expected, Orange Tree is a Potent Hybrid Sativa with strong Euphoric Cerebral Effects.

THC: 28.8%

Total Terpenes: 3.2%

Quality: 9.2

Intensity: 8.9

Duration: 8.7

Total:  8.9

Cost:  $37.94 for 3.5 grams

Would we buy this again?  Maybe, if Costa Canna offers large formats at lower prices?  Similar “highs” can be found in Cuban Linx, Apple Fritter, or the Golden Goat, at even lower prices.  But for the connoisseurs, Orange Tree is worth trying.

On an investment note, Costa Canna and Coast Mountain Cannabis are two craft growers with Premium pricing to define Quality.  Both have reduced their prices in the last month.   There is no Sustainable market at these delusional Premium prices.
