Hawaiian Punch
Hawaiian Punch
Also known as: Hawaiian Fruit Punch
Overview
Hawaiian Punch is a potent sativa strain derived from a Hawaiian landrace and stabilized by Sagarmatha Seeds, an Amsterdam-based breeding company. The strain's origins trace back to pure Hawaiian genetics cultivated in the rich, volcanic soil of the Hawaiian islands, representing a connection to Hawaii's native cannabis heritage. This strain was developed through careful breeding efforts to preserve the tropical characteristics of Hawaiian landrace strains while ensuring genetic stability and consistent growth patterns. Hawaiian Punch is renowned for its high THC content, typically ranging from 18-25%, and delivers intense cerebral effects characteristic of quality sativa genetics. The strain features dense, resinous buds with abundant trichome coverage, often displaying forest green coloration with orange pistils. Its appearance showcases classic sativa morphology with long, narrow leaves and the potential for significant height during cultivation. The name pays homage to both its tropical fruit flavor profile and its powerful, punch-like effects that can be overwhelming for inexperienced users.

Growing Information
Hawaiian Punch has a moderate growing difficulty level with a flowering time of 55-60 days indoors. Plants can grow quite tall (up to 78 inches outdoors, 30-60 inches typical), requiring regular trimming and pruning during vegetative phase. Indoor yields average 350 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 15-20 ounces per plant. The strain prefers warm, semi-humid climates similar to Hawaii's tropical conditions and flourishes when grown outdoors in appropriate climates. Indoor growers should provide adequate space and light intensity for optimal growth. The strain is relatively resistant to mold and pests, making it suitable for various growing conditions.
