Appearance and Smell

The defining characteristic of Red Dragon is a red tinge to the buds and pistils. It makes the plant look like it’s on fire. This is a short plant, less than 30 inches tall. The leaves are light and dark green. The dried nuggets remind you of some spicy hot wings. It is speckled with white powdery trichomes.

Red Dragon smells fruity and tropical. There are notes of spice, floral tones, and a pungency. The taste is like a mouthful of fresh berries.

How to Grow Red Dragon Cannabis Seeds or Cuttings

Growing weed from Red Dragon cannabis seeds or cuttings can be an involved process. This connoisseur strain grows best in an inside environment. Some cultivators use a greenhouse. These are mainly professional cultivators with a lot of tools at hand. But this strain can also be grown in grow room with a tent. Place reflective lining around your tent to keep the light reflecting on your plant’s leaves for maximum exposure. You can use standard 5-gallon buckets. Fill these with organic soil and a good fertilizer such as Flower Power. Keep your watering regular and have overflow holes in your flower pots to prevent overwatering. You will need to keep the air crisp and dry. You can do this by using a fan and an exhaust system to keep clean air moving through. You should also use an air filter to keep the air clean and avoid the growth of mold and mildew. This will also protect your plant from bacteria, viruses, mites, and spiders. Your plants will be short but with long, heavy arms which will need to be supported with staking. It will take about 60 days for your plants to flower. Then they will be ready for harvesting. Next, hang your plants to dry and cure. You will come away with beautiful green and fire red nuggets of gold. Expect to harvest 21 ounces of Red Dragon weed for each square meter of space used to grow your precious plants.

You can also grow Red Dragon cannabis plants outdoors. You will need an environment with rich soil. Your plants will need a lot of sunlight like a sunny California climate. This marijuana will flower in the last days of September, then you know the drill. Carefully harvest, dry, cure, and store properly. You can use mason jars or a system like Cannador with CVaults. Your mason jars should be a little dark to prevent light from zapping your precious phytonutrients. You can expect to come away with 21 ounces of profitable weed for each plant you grow outdoors. This is a productive and valuable gain for this exotic strain which can go for very good prices and is eagerly sought by specialty smokers.

Medicinal Marijuana Review

Red Dragon is about 60 percent Sativa and 40 percent Indica. This means it is expected to have a stimulating effect. In fact, you feel the stimulation as soon as you see those fire redbuds. This strain will make you happy and energetic. For this reason, it is often prescribed for mood disorders such as depression. One of the most common qualifying conditions for medical marijuana in the United States of America is a set of conditions called neurodegenerative diseases. These diseases involve the deterioration of the nervous system and the brain. They include Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s, Lou Gehrig’s Disease, and Huntington’s Disease. Some of these diseases, like Huntington’s, are expected to result in a terminal outcome so the goal is to reduce symptoms and make the patient comfortable. Marijuana can cause some worsening of memory, so use in Alzheimer’s Disease is used to control pain and mood, as patients can sometimes become very agitated, frustrated, or violent. Red Dragon marijuana can improve behavior and have a paradoxical relaxing effect on these patients. In Parkinson’s Disease, the relaxation and dopaminergic effect can improve shaking and also behavior problems which occur. It can also help treat pain in these patients, and depression, which is a frequent co-morbid condition for Parkinson’s. Huntington’s disease is expected to result in a fatal outcome within a few years of onset. So, these patients need to be kept comfortable and happy. Red Dragon marijuana can be an avenue for improving the quality of life in these patients.

Also, co-morbid with these conditions is a quartet of symptoms which marijuana has been to treatment for thousands of years. These are nausea, lack of appetite, wasting, and insomnia. Red Dragon marijuana can address each of these symptoms. It will fight back nausea and restore appetite through a scientific process called ‘the munchies’. This allows patients with the neurodegenerative disease to prevent the loss of weight which is a big problem in Huntington’s illness but can occur in any neurodegenerative disease as the nerves which control appetite, regulate food intake, and produce nausea become damaged. Marijuana treatment can also relax the patient to the point that they can sleep easily and better. Sometimes, the amount of time spent in various sleep stages, including REM sleep, becomes disordered. When depression is present, patients actually spend too much time in REM sleep, which is similar to waking consciousness.  So, it’s like they haven’t slept at all. Neurotransmitters are drained and nerve conductance is even worse. After a good weed nap, patients are much better throughout the day.

Effects

Red Dragon marijuana is the bubbly, happy go lucky weed strain. It makes you feel happy, energetic, and like you can take on the world. But, before you indulge, this is a heavyweight weed. So, what you can get done on this weed will depend on your tolerance. It is best for creative pursuits as it can spark the creativity needed to get through a session of brainstorming on musical chords and other elements. You will have a unique perspective and new ideas. You will be able to hear sounds normally you would only feel subconscious. You can hear what’s going on underneath the music.

It is also a good weed for visual art like painting. You will be able to see new elements in your colors. You will be inspired by the psychedelic redbuds, green tinge, yellows, and mind-twisting orange hairs. So, indulge beyond reason, and bring out your talent.

Red Dragon Marijuana Strain
Average rating:

 by Newes

I don't wanna say that I'm a connoisseur but in my minor but honest opinion, it is extremely hard to find weed which will be better in making you productive and happy as fuck than Red Dragon. But at first, the smell and taste. When I opened the bag it was like entering the greenhouse with flowers. The smoke was divine, sweet both on the inhale and exhale and I wanted to smoke more and more because of that. It reminded me of a super cool sweet smoothie with many different fruits my sister once made for me. Have no idea what she put there but the scent was as much delightful as this weed's. But make sure you've got enough liquid around you cause this sweetness will make u thirsty. Oh and after enjoying all this.... You can finally move to the best part: being a fully another person. An uplifted person, full of energy and motivation, of desire to do more and to do one's best. Whether it's house chores or your work, participating in a social event or doing sports. Red Dragon turns you into that typical super proactive guy from YouTube and helps to get your life together. The only sidekick that it's better not to do it alone as it's easy to get paranoid. In all the other aspects: LOVE IT!

When I came into the dispensary I had only one intention: to find that very strain that will finally help to cope with my insomnia without giving me a range of unneeded side-effects. But this one has a special feature too. Don't trust its effects the first several minutes. You'll feel much more relaxed straight away after the first puff (or hit off the cartridge like I did). And it'll feel so good you're gonna crave to smoke more and more. So it's actually extremely easy to overdo it. It's so smooth and light you don't even feel how slowly you come closer and closer to the line. Be very careful especially if you've had anxiety/paranoiac issues before, as it'll make everything even worse. In this case I can advise you to have somebody around you or to try to concentrate on some project/work. But if smoked slow, no problems. Only feeling like you're on the top of the world, able to do anything.
