A strain named in honour of an amazing Cannabis advocate, researcher and author, Dr Lester Grinspoon. This is a pure heirloom Sativa which grows tall and thin.
This plant requires a longer flowering time, but when mature the colas resemble compact green and reddish brown beads. These loosely hang on thin stems, the buds give a lemon and sumac scent and produce a light smoke with tangy tropical fruit aromas. Dr. Grinspoon strain offers an old school Sativa of the highest order, which gives a strong, long lasting, energetic and cerebral high.
The Dr Grinspoon strain by Barneys Farm is 100% Sativa .
To properly store Dr Grinspoon seeds, it is recommended to keep them cool and dark in an airtight container ideally in a refrigerator with proper labeling and dating, avoiding freezing.

Strain FAQ
Are these strains variable?
Environmental circumstances can reportedly cause considerable phenotypic differences even in strains that finish by mid-November. This shows how environment affects cannabis cultivation, as seeds from the same strain can produce plants with different flowering times, heights, and cannabinoid levels.
How does the long flowering time effect cannabinoid levels in these strains?
Long-flowering cultivars produce more THC and CBD due to their longer development. This means that by harvest time, certain strains may have stronger effects.
Are IBL strains helping preserve traditional cannabis strains?
IBL strains help preserve legacy or landrace strains, which have evolved to adapt to certain geographical settings over centuries. IBLs of these heritage strains can preserve their genetic profiles and features, protecting valuable genetics in a hybridised market.
Why is the honey flavour in cannabis strains distinctive?
These strains' honey flavour is rare and delicate due to terpene balance. Genetics and the environment shape these terpene profiles, giving them a sweet, comforting aroma like honey.
Why do Sativas yield less outside their native ranges?
When beyond their tropical comfort zone, Sativas are said to yield less. Due to their long flowering time and specific environmental needs, they are reportedly difficult to satisfy away from their equatorial home.
