About this product

Lineage: Afghani Landrace Terpenes: B-Caryophyllene, Limonene, B-Myrcene Good For: Insomnia, Pain, PTSD, Nausea -- An original “landrace” strain native to the mountains of Afghanistan, Afghani is a pure indica prized for its potency and sturdy genetics. Perfected and balanced over centuries by both natural selection and human cultivation, this vintage variety was likely brought to the West before Afghanistan banned cannabis production in 1973 under pressure from the Nixon administration. -- Afghani has been used to breed popular child strains like Northern Lights and Blueberry, both Cannabis Cup winners. In the frenzied market for new crossbred strains, this building block strain - also known as Afghani #1 - can be harder to come by. THC content averages around 15 to 20%. -- The cannabis world would not be what it is today without the genetic blueprint laid down by this and other landrace genetics. Everyone should try this classic varietal at least once.
