Top 5 orange weed strains with lip-smacking taste (2024)

Cannabis terpenes define the aroma and taste in your cannabis buds. Terpenes are naturally occurring organic compounds produced by cannabis and many other plant species.

Cannabis has numerous cannabis terpenes which combine to produce scent and flavour, some genetic lines are rich in specific terpenes and the precise combination of these in a given plant produce the unique smell.

Environmental conditions also play a key role. Experienced growers will use quality LED grow lights as well as supplemental UVA/UVB light during late bloom to maximise cannabis terpenes.

Although there are an infinite number of terpene combinations, one terpene which is consistently present in orange weed strains is limonene, also found in citrus fruit.

Valencene (abundant in Valencia oranges) is another and is thought to have insect repelling effects. But other common cannabis terpenes such as myrcene, pinene, caryophyllene, camphene etc will all modulate the aroma depending on their relative concentrations.

Many cannabis growers may gleefully notice an unexpected orange weed pungency when growing non-orange weed strains. That can be due to random phenotypes rich in limonene. One point that all cannabis growers agree on is that the only thing that can beat a satisfyingly potent weed strain is one that also boasts a great taste.

If you want to buy some orange cannabis seeds which combine premium potency with tongue-tingling citrus taste, then these are our top-5 recommendations!

Note that even the tastiest cannabis genetics need to be grown and dried/cured well in order to maximise the orange tasting terpene profile. Grow your cannabis plants in sub-optimised conditions and the genetics will be unable to reach full potential.

Similarly, subject your harvest to fast-drying and poor curing and you will lose much of the essential taste you worked so hard to achieve. The following cannabis harvest & curing guide will explain all you need to know.
