The Panama Red is an old-school Sativa dominant strain from the Panama region that was extremely popular between 1960 to the early ’90s. Since then, the genetics have died off slowly as most growers have switched to other Sativa strains that have faster grow cycles (to have more profitable grows). Panama Red’s flowering time is roughly 11 – 12 weeks and in cooler summer conditions up to 13 weeks, which is longer than the most other popular Sativa strains. Panama Red is one of the most popular, powerful, and high-yielding Sativa dominant strains in our catalog. A very elaborated hybrid of great potency and vegetative vigor. It produces beautiful, large, dense flowers full of trichomes, often showing reddish and pinkish pistils when flowering, traits usually associated with the mythic Colombia Punto Rojo mountains area strains.

Although the strain can be grown indoors or outdoor, some experience is required. In fact, its outdoor cultivation is best in a tropical or sub-tropical climate for the plant to thrive (summer season). Hence, it's preferable for growers to keep the plant indoors or in a greenhouse environment. At the same time, due to its long flowering period and moderate yield, most growers are less likely to choose the strain for commercial organic growing.
