Original Afghani #1 Cannabis Seeds from Seedsman Seeds

Original Afghani #1 is another cannabis strain brought to the world courtesy of Sacred Seeds in the 1970s. It is a traditional land-race cannabis and an early example in the west of a stable, true-breeding indica that has since been used in many breeding programmes. This indica is a hardy plant that is well-known for producing dense, resinous buds that are excellent for the production of traditional hashish. In the last 4 decades or more it has become acclimatised to growing outdoors in the USA and in Europe by highly selective breeding which successfully fixed more favourable traits such as resin production and early flowering.

The Sensi Seed Bank is just one of many that has used this strain extensively to create some wonderful indica-dominant cannabis strains. Vigorous in vegetative growth it remains a squat plant with a very strong stem that protects it against the wind. It has a very strong, rich aroma which is quite unmistakable. As a true-breeding, classic indica it provides very reliable breeding stock.

Strain FAQ

Afghan Kush growing characteristics?

Afghan Kush, an indica, grows short and bushy with large leaves, making it reportedly ideal for small indoor spaces. Due to its rich, resinous buds, it is said to be able to yield a lot despite its small size.

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 do legal indoor cannabis growers need strain-specific environments?

Indoor cultivation offers the potential to fulfil each cannabis strain's dream circumstances. By tailoring temperature, humidity, and illumination cycles to each strain, legal growers may achieve uniformity and quality that's impossible to match outside.

Why are normal strength strains with 10%–19% THC commonly recommended for legal medical use?

For their balance, legal medical cannabis patients reportedly choose strains in this THC range. They are said to help relieve pain, anxiety, and insomnia without the psychoactivity of higher THC levels. This is said to make them a good choice for people seeking mild relief.

Do fast-flowering strains lose potency or flavour?

Despite their short flowering period, these strains have rich, complex terpene profiles with a wide range of flavours and fragrances. This reportedly ensures speedy turnaround without sacrificing quality or experience.
