Orient Express Cannabis Seeds from Ace Seed bank

Orient Express is a potent Asian hybrid that combines the high yield of aromatic and resinous flowers of our selected Vietnam Black mother, with the low height and short flowering time of our Chinese Yunnan indica.

Most plants produce a THC-rich chemotype, although some may show a balanced THC and CBD content.

One of our most popular varieties, which has been giving endless happiness to growers since the beginnings of ACE Seeds.
Recommended for asian sativa lovers with small gardens.

Genetics Vietnam Black sativa x China Yunnan indica.
Structure Excellent structure, short sized plant with great branching.
Bouquet It’s deep and organic aroma is reminiscent of a rainforest, full of life. It has a dense earthy flavor with floral details that lingers in the palate.
High Warm, clean and pleasant sativa effect without paranoia or anxiety. Perfect for chatting and for enjoying in good company.
Terpene profile It mainly contains the following monoterpenes: high amounts of beta myrcene and alpha pinene, followed by moderate quantities of beta pinene, p-cymene, camphene and smaller amounts of isopulegol, linalool and terpinolene. Sesquiterpenes: mainly nerolidol, with moderate amounts of beta caryophyllene and bisabolol, and smaller amounts of alpha humelene and guaiol.
Growing Tips Excellent adaptability to indoor growing. In order to obtain the best results indoors, we recommend warm temperatures (around 25ºC) during the growing stage and the first 4 weeks of flowering. In the last month, temperatures should be reduced to 20ºC for the rest of the flowering process. Very suitable for SOG crops due to its great yield in the main cola, or for SCROG, horizontal or network growing due to its excellent yield in the lateral branches and its vigorous reaction to pruning. Outdoors, it is a very adaptable plant that has been grown for years in hot climates, and in climates with a mild start of autumn. Orient Express is a strain that generally requires high levels of nutrients, therefore feeding her generously until the 6th flowering week in order to produce a boundless harvest. Genetic analyses show that Orient Express has a unique genotype, of high genetic variability, only showing direct kinship with our China Yunnan used to develop this hybrid.

Strain FAQ

What gives Earthy tasting strains their natural scent?

The terpene myrcene gives earthy cannabis strains their unique scent, which has herbaceous, musky, and earthy clove-like aromas. Myrcene can also reportedly boost other properties of particular strains.

Where do cannabis strains that resist high temperatures come from?

Many of these robust strains originated and evolved in warm, tropical environments. Sativa strains thrive in warmer temperatures, therefore their genetics have adapted to the heat.

How can cannabis enthusiasts learn from regular seeds?

Regular seeds are a gateway to the production of new and exciting strains. They can also show valuable information on cannabis' life cycle and genetics and how to recognise and manage both male and female plants.

What is the history of these early-finishing strains?

Many of these strains are descendants of landrace strains that evolved in certain regions over generations. Breeders have used these old genetic features to generate hybrids that flower early and offer new tastes, effects, and disease resistance.

What does hybrid cannabis strain phenotypic variation mean?

Individual plants in a hybrid strain can vary in colour, height, and bud structure. Breeders can improve and stabilise desired traits by selecting certain phenotypes and thereby improve the strain.
