HYBRID
This 100% pure sativa strain won 3rd place in 2013 for overall best at the High Times’ Cannabis Cup. Red Congolese offers moderate THC levels (averaging 18% to 20%) and can deliver tingling, elated sensations. Though the name evokes African origins, Red Congolese originated in California from a blend of Mexican and Afghan roots. Perhaps these global origins lend Red Congolese its decidedly earthy flavor profile. Red Congolese is sometimes mistaken for Congolese Red by SnowHigh Seeds, but the two strains are distinct.
Grow Information
Red Congolese is a tall strain, stretching up to 6 feet at full height. It is one of the easier strains to grow, thriving both inside and outside. Flowering is a bit slower than with other strains, not occurring until 10 to 11 weeks, rather than the more common 8 or 9 weeks.
