For this strain our breeders have managed to tweak our quintessentially pure Indica strain, Afghan Kush, from kush strains grown in a small area in Northern Afghanistan in the Hindu Kush mountain range and boasting a 100% indica genetic heritage.
This was achieved through a rigorous programme of selection and improvement using some truly explosive male and female Afghan Kush specimens. She continues to retain her 100% Indica qualities, including that trademark taste and aroma, but produces more resin and an even more Indica stone, as if this were possible.
Strain FAQ
How do woodsy flavours affect cannabis taste?
Woodsy taste enhances taste and smell and may interact with cannabinoids to create unique effects. The entourage effect suggests a more nuanced experience when terpenes and cannabinoids interact.
Why are harvest times for outdoor cannabis strains seasonal?
Outdoor cannabis is obviously at the mercy of the seasons, with legal growers typically reaping their bounty once a year in the fall. This natural rhythm dictates the supply and could even sway the cost of these strains in the market. This makes the timing of the harvest a crucial factor for legal outdoor cultivators.
What drawbacks does IBL strains' minimal genetic diversity cause?
The genetic uniformity of IBL strains makes them predictable but limits genetic variety. Since IBL strains have less genetic variety for resistance, they may be more susceptible to pests and illnesses. Thus, legal producers may need thorough pest and disease management.
Why are Pest-resistant strains better for the environment?
Pest-resistant cannabis strains generally promote organic and sustainable growing. These cultivars reduce synthetic pesticide use, improving ecosystems and lowering cannabis' environmental impact.
Genetically, how do strains that are ready to harvest by mid-October adapt?
These strains usually have faster maturation genes. They conclude by mid-October thanks to ruderalis' auto-flowering features and indica's shorter flowering periods.
