El Patron cannabis seeds

El Patron

El Patron is a feminized photoperiod seed from Royal Queen Seeds, from the AMG x Shiva cross. It suits you if you are looking for a compact hybrid with 60 percent sativa and 40 percent indica, 22 percent THC and a flowering time of 60 to 65 days. Indoors the plant stays relatively short and responds well to topping and low stress training. Outdoors it grows taller and needs a longer summer. You get a powerful, stoned effect that starts in the head and then hits the body, with a spicy, peppery profile and notes of citrus and kush.

Detailed Growing Information

Indoors, El Patron behaves like a compact hybrid. The indica influence makes for a relatively short plant with plenty of lateral growth. You keep it between 90 and 130 cm. Topping and low stress training help you control the width and distribute light more evenly. Flowering lasts 60 to 65 days. Yields typically sit between 450 and 500 grams per square metre. It grows in different media and setups. Keep an eye on feeding during flower, because the plant can react sensitively to doses that are too high.

Outdoors the plant grows taller. Count on 140 to 200 cm. It needs a climate with long summers. Harvest falls at the end of October. Typical yield per plant sits between 550 and 600 grams. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot. The lateral growth is still there, so space around the plant is useful. In colder or shorter seasons a greenhouse is a practical option to secure the late harvest.

The seeds are feminized, so you get almost only female plants. That simplifies selection. Both indoors and outdoors the grow stays straightforward if you steer height and width in time.

Effects, Flavour and Aroma

The effect of El Patron is powerful and stoned. First you notice a clear head high. You become more alert and thoughts flow more easily. Then it settles into a calming body high that invites rest and reflection. The balance makes the strain suitable for different times of day. You can use it both in company and on your own.

The flavour and aroma are spicy and peppery. Citrus and kush join in. The terpenes give a fruity undertone. The smell is clearly present during flowering. After drying and curing, the spicy and citrus notes dominate. The combination of pepper, herbs and kush makes the buds easy to recognize.

Comparison with Similar Strains

El Patron differs from Green Gelato. Green Gelato has a sweeter, dessert-like flavour with cream and fruit, while El Patron stays spicy and peppery with citrus and kush. El Patron's growth is more compact and lateral; Green Gelato leans more towards a classic hybrid structure.

Compared with Amnesia Haze, El Patron is shorter in flower and less purely sativa. Amnesia Haze usually needs a longer flowering period and delivers a sharper haze-citrus. El Patron keeps the 60/40 ratio and a more balanced high that shifts from head to body.

Compared with Shiva, one of the parents, El Patron is less indica-dominant. Shiva leans more heavily on the body and has a cardamom-like note. El Patron adds the sativa influence of AMG and therefore keeps more clarity at the start of the effect.

Frequently Asked Questions about El Patron

How long does El Patron take to flower?

El Patron's flowering lasts 60 to 65 days. That applies to indoor grows under a 12/12 schedule. Outdoors, harvest falls at the end of October, depending on the climate. The plant is a photoperiod strain, so you trigger flowering yourself with the light. Allow for the lateral growth if your space is limited. Timing the switch to flower well keeps it from getting too tall.

Is El Patron suitable for beginners?

El Patron suits beginners who want to apply basic techniques such as topping and low stress training. The plant is not demanding in different media. Indoors it stays reasonably compact. Do watch feeding in flower, because too much fertilizer can affect the buds. Outdoors it needs a long summer. With a simple setup and regular checks you will get there.

What does El Patron taste like?

The flavour of El Patron is spicy and peppery with citrus and kush. The terpenes give a fruity undertone. During flowering you clearly smell the spices.

How tall does El Patron get outdoors?

Outdoors El Patron reaches 140 to 200 cm. The indica influence keeps it shorter than a pure sativa, but it grows clearly taller than indoors. It needs space for the side branches. A long summer is important for full ripening at the end of October. In a greenhouse you can limit the height a little and protect the late harvest. Choose a sunny spot.
