Few strains carry the weight of legend like Acapulco Gold. Straight out of the warm hillsides around Acapulco, this sativa-dominant classic has been lighting up the cannabis world since the '60s. It’s the kind of strain that gets mentioned in books, music, and old-school stoner folklore, and for good reason. Big golden buds, that signature earthy-sweet aroma, and a euphoric high that just keeps going. If you’re hunting for a piece of true cannabis history, this one deserves a spot in your grow.
Want a grow that moves a little quicker and doesn’t stress about lighting? Try our Acapulco Gold Auto autoflowering version. It's ideal for tight schedules and steady harvests.
Acapulco Gold Fem hails from the coastal regions of Mexico, specifically around Acapulco, where it first gained fame for its striking golden hues and uplifting effects. It’s a landrace-based strain that’s been carefully preserved and stabilized over the decades. This modern version keeps all the charm of the original while being a bit more cooperative in controlled environments. A true throwback that still holds its own in a market full of flashy hybrids.
The high is classic sativa: energetic, clear-headed, and long-lasting. Expect a wave of creativity and happiness with zero couch lock, making it a favorite for daytime sessions or social settings. Flavor-wise, it brings a warm blend of sweet toffee, earth, and spice, layered with a subtle nuttiness that lingers on the tongue. It's not overbearing. Just smooth, flavorful, and instantly recognizable if you’ve had it before.
THC levels usually sit comfortably between 20% and 23%, so it packs a punch without going overboard. You’ll feel it in the first few pulls, but it’s a creeper too. It builds steadily and doesn’t taper off too quickly. CBD is negligible, making it better suited to recreational use or for folks seeking a mental lift over physical relief.
Dominant terpenes include myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene. That combo brings out the earthy base, a little peppery warmth, and a fresh citrus note on the finish. The aroma alone is enough to make you stop and lean in for another sniff.
Acapulco Gold isn’t the easiest strain for beginners, but it’s far from unmanageable. It likes warmth, airflow, and a bit of patience. Sativa structure means it stretches a bit during flower, so topping and training are your best friends if space is limited. It’s also fairly resistant to pests and mildew, so once it gets going, it tends to thrive.
Indoors, you can expect heights between 100 cm and 120 cm if you manage the canopy. Yields fall in the 350 gram to 500 gram range with a proper setup. Outdoors, this plant really shines. Given full sun and a long season, it can reach 200 cm and bring in up to 600 gram, especially in Mediterranean-style climates or a solid greenhouse setup.
Acapulco Gold Fem needs a bit more time to finish, usually around 10 to 11 weeks indoors. Outdoors, it’s typically ready to harvest by mid to late October. That extra time is worth it though, as the buds come in dense, sparkling, and frosted with golden hues that gave the strain its name in the first place.

Great plants very strong
Acapulco came from California and never had major non-growth problems
I planted 2 Acapulco Gold seeds. Only 1 sprouted. The seedling started off with some strange growth in the beginning but looks to be growing good now
Great customer service. First order got stopped by customs and they replaced them. Plants are great and beautiful( big nugs). Also wanted to post some pics but can’t find out how
Genetics come from Guerrero state, Michoacán state and Jalisco state in Mexico. Which is not a Central America Country. North America start in Mexico please take some Geography class.
