Featured MMJ Strain: Agent Orange
Agent Orange, most likely named due to the pungent limonene in its terpene profile, is a citrusy sativa-dominant hybrid bred by TGA genetics. Agent Orange’s predominantly citrus terpene profile creates a delicious scent and flavor of citrus very similar to orange. After medicating with Agent Orange, one can expect feelings of euphoria, happiness, and energy. Medicinally, the strain is a great analgesic and anxiolytic agent, with excellent pain relief, stress relief, and anxiety relief. The strain also is known to induce hunger.

Agent Orange is a 50/50 breed of Orange Velvet and Jack the Ripper. The buds are bright green, but with a small hint of purple darkness towards the inner calyxes. The buds are covered in resinous trichomes and red hairs, and when cracked open, Agent Orange buds will fill the room with hints of orange, lemon, and skunk.
Agent Orange grows very tall, with two main phenotypes (physical traits): one short and thick, and one taller and more resinous. The flowering period is average, at 55-65 days, and the plant grows a very heavy yield. Indoor or outdoor, both phenotypes will produce a high quality crop when properly produced.

Included below are three reviews of Agent Orange which MMJ patients posted on Leafly, a marijuana strain network for medical marijuana patients.
“Smooth, citrusy, flavorful,amazing. AO had me completely uplifted, happy and full of energy! Completely reversed my seasonal depression and left me having great in depth conversations with my significant other who said she felt more of the euphoric, spacey feeling this strain is known for than I did. On the first hits of my preroll I noticed a near immediate analgesic numbing effect on my mouth and tongue. This seemed to help my girl at the time who was suffering a head and neck ache. The extreme smoothness of this strain didn’t inflame my asthma even though I smoked instead of vaped.” -SkyJunkie
“Love love LOVE Agent Orange. Very citrus smelling, with a taste to match. The hairs are bright orange and you can tell it from other buds just by looking at the bag. I usually smoke my AO when I get home from work and don’t quite wanna smoke on an Indica yet. I keeps me pain free and buzzed, but not locked in one place.” -thewhitewidow
“This is a delightful hybrid that is sure to wake you up but also suck you in. Leaving a strong aroma of Citrus Oranges/Lemons – the flavor is zingy, flavorful, and great for relaxing afternoons with a relaxed body high & euphoric state of mind.” -805raver420
