El Patron is a balanced hybrid that engages the mind and soothes the body. She'll hit the spot, regardless of your mood.
Buying cannabis seeds can be uncertain business. Unless you’ve tried the strain before, you won't be completely aware of what you’re getting yourself into. However, there are several ways to determine the quality of a cannabis strain without having it in front of you. One factor to consider is if the strain has won any legitimate awards. El Patron is one such award winner. She won first place for “Common Weed Cultured in Soil” at the Highlife Cup—judged by a verified panel of cannabis experts, making it a real seal of approval.
El Patron was created by crossbreeding parent strains AMG and Shiva. AMG (Amnesia Mac Ganja) is a sativa-dominant hybrid that packs a THC level of 22% and stimulating effects. In contrast, Shiva is an indica strain that offers tastes of cardamom and a therapeutic high. By crossing these cultivars, our breeders created a well-balanced hybrid that features 60% sativa genetics and 40% indica. El Patron is loaded with THC and fruity terpenes.
Some smokers adore a sativa buzz, whereas others value an indica body high. El Patron occupies the sweet spot between these territories. The strain provides both of these effects in near-perfect balance. After vaping or smoking her flowers, you’ll notice and initial head high set in. Your neurons will get excited, you’ll become more alert, and creative thoughts will rise to the surface. Eventually, this effect descends into a soothing body high that encourages reflection and contemplation. The multifaceted effects of El Patron make her a strain for any time of day. She’s a good social cultivar for parties and a perfect candidate for moments of solitude.
El Patron is a favourite among cannabis chefs. Her flowers produce potent tastes and smells of citrus and kush. Together, these flavours go down well in cakes, brownies, and other sweet recipes.
El Patron isn’t fussy. She grows exceptionally well in both indoor and outdoor environments. Her indica genetics come to the fore in terms of growth pattern. She’s relatively short and produces a lot of lateral growth. Cultivators can tame her wild nature through topping and LST. Both indoor and outdoor plants provide a medium yield.

Strain FAQ
How do strains suitable for the outdoors vary phenotypically?
Legal growers report that growing the same strain outdoors can produce startling differences in potency, flavour, and growth. Cannabis is said to be very flexible, with its features finely modified by its growth environment.
Why are cake tasting strains unique?
A complex breeding method produces cake-flavored strains like "Wedding Cake" and "Birthday Cake" with sweet and earthy scents. Careful selection and combination create a multi-layered taste that mirrors cake.
Were Sativa strains ever used for anything other than getting high or medicine?
Sativas' capabilities go beyond just these two things. Their strong fibres have been used to make ropes, clothes, and paper. This shows just how varied and valuable the cannabis plant has been even before its more modern uses.
How do genetic changes affect strains ending by the end of October?
Indica strains from short-summer regions are common. This genetic base helps them flower and mature quickly, making them finish by the end of October.
What traits make a cannabis strain beginner-friendly?
Beginner strains are generally hardy and require little maintenance. They can handle temperature, humidity, and food changes due to their robust genetics. Being resistant to common pests and illnesses is said to simplify things greatly.
