Summary / Suitability

Colombian Orange Reserve (Punto Naranja) is a Colombian landrace sativa originating from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. The line expresses a bright citrus profile, orange pistils, and a long, clear sativa effect typical of 1980s regional heirlooms. Suitable for experienced growers who can manage tall, long-flowering tropical varieties.

Genetic Background

Collected and preserved from the César region in northern Colombia, where high UV exposure and limited soil nutrients selected for resilient, vigorous plants. This population has remained stable through local preservation and represents a pure Colombian sativa lineage from early 1980s material.

Plant Characteristics

Plants display a medium-to-tall frame with narrow, serrated leaflets and even internodal spacing. Stretch during flowering is moderate to strong. Structure is open and airy, allowing good light penetration and airflow. Stems are firm, and resin production is moderate to high for a landrace type.

Flower Characteristics

Flowers form elongated, tapering colas with a golden-green hue and prominent orange pistils. Buds are semi-loose, consistent with tropical sativas, and coated with fine trichomes. The scent profile combines orange peel, pepper, and tropical fruit, occasionally showing a faint fuel undertone after curing.

Growing Tips

Responds well to early training (LST or SCROG) to control height and improve lateral development. Flowering duration is 79–84 days (≈12 weeks). Prefers full sun, warm conditions, and consistent airflow. The cultivar is naturally mold-resistant but benefits from light pruning and moderate feeding.

Effects & Potency

Produces a clear, uplifting cerebral effect with minimal body impact. Typical THC content ranges 18–22%, with some outdoor expressions testing higher. Effects are long-lasting and consistent with traditional Colombian sativa profiles.

Appearance & Aroma / Flavor Profile

Appearance: Golden-green buds, orange stigmas, visible trichome coverage.
Aroma: Orange peel, cracked pepper, light tropical fruit.
Flavor: Subtle citrus and spice on the inhale with a smooth, earthy finish.
