Ethiopian Cannabis Seeds from Ace Seed bank

The Ethiopian is a pure tropical African sativa, of great value and interest for pure sativa lovers and for preservationists.

It produces a classic African tropical sativa phenotype: tall, vigorous, flexible, strongly branched plants with long node length. Excellent resistance against moisture, fungus, wind and heat.

The long flowering time is compensated by a good final yield (when is properly cultivated with strong light intensity and warm temperatures), and for its cerebral effect of great quality, highly appreciated by sativa lovers looking for the more active, sociable, kind and positive effects, always well focused, and without producing paranoia, mental or body heaviness.

Earthy and woody African sativa aromas, with floral, musky and fermented citrus touches.

Cannabinoid analyses recently performed on this pure Ethiopian have shown a significant THCV content of 2%.

Structure Tropical sativa structure, strong, vigorous, of strong branching and long node length.
Bouquet Earthy and woody African sativa aromas, with floral, musky and fermented citrus touches.
High Classic African sativa effect: clean, cerebral, uplifting and positive, of moderate strength. It leaves you happy and light, with a big smile on the face. Without mental or body heaviness. Perfect for day time smoke and for activities.
Terpene profile It mainly contains the following monoterpenes: high amounts of alpha pinene, followed by beta myrcene, trans ocimene and beta pinene in more moderate quantities, with variability in the presence of small amounts of limonene and terpinolene. Sesquiterpenes: mainly beta-caryophyllene, followed by alpha-humelene, with variability in the presence of small amounts of trans-nerolidol.
Growing Tips It can be grown indoors with strong light intensity and with enough space for its development.
We recommend to switch her into flowering after 15 days from seed, or starting from clones rooted for at least 7 days. We recommend 11 (light)/13 (darkness) photoperiod for the flowering indoors, in order to boost the flowering, and to avoid reflowerings or excessive stretching in early flowering. 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 especially suitable for outdoor cultivation in tropical or subtropical climates, although it can be cultivated with very good results in warm coastal climates of mild autumn (similar to the Mediterranean) up to latitudes close to 40º. We recommend soft NPK levels in the growing stage, increasing PK from 3rd week of flowering. When Ethiopian is properly grown, the yield is high, both indoors and outdoors. Genetic analyses show that this Ethiopian has an uncommon genotype, of moderate genetic variability, only showing direct kinship with other genetic samples from the same Ethiopian family and with a South African sativa. This Ethiopian is an interesting sativa to develop sativa hybrids of huge vigor and yield, with clean and energetic effects. And to develop hybrids with the potential to have a significant THCV content.

Strain FAQ

Why are landrace strains getting rarer?

Genuine landrace strains are discovered in just a few isolated regions globally. This rarity, along with modern agriculture and cannabis breeding, has made some landrace strains scarce and valuable.

How do African and Middle Eastern strains differ in cannabinoid profiles?

African strains have different CBD and THCV compositions that offer many therapeutic benefits. However, Middle Eastern genotypes produce significant THC and resin, which are valuable in hashish manufacture.

Why are regular seeds so important in the creation of new cannabis strains?

Breeding starts with regular seeds, which provide both male and female plants. This allows breeders to mix and combine features to generate new and exciting cannabis strains. To make children you need a male and a female!

How can offering single seeds help the wallet?

Single seed selections are a cheap method to try out a variety of strains which is perfect for dabblers and experimenters. As curiosity costs drop, it's possible to shake things up one seed at a time without breaking the bank!

Is controlling pests and disease easier indoors?

Indoor cannabis areas are like fortresses against pests and infections. Legal indoor growers are said to avoid many of the problems that outside farmers experience on a regular basis which reportedly results in healthier plants and purer goods. This is done through strictly controlling who (or what) enters the space and maintaining pristine conditions.
