Available only in seed form.

A landrace strain from Malawi in Southeast Africa is called Malawi Gold. Mint, floral, and wood are the Malawi Gold strain’s most frequently mentioned aromas. It is said to have an herbal, earthy, and menthol flavor. Malawi Gold is a landrace sativa strain that grows enormously tall plants with long, thin fan-shaped leaves. The stems of some phenotypes are colored red. Malawi Gold likes to stretch toward the sun in outdoor settings. Although it can withstand most environmental challenges, indoor crops benefit from the Screen of Green (ScrOG) technique and thrive. In 112 days indoors and by early December outdoors, Malawi Gold blooms. Only seeds of Malawi Gold are available. Clones might be purchased directly from growers of this strain.

A landrace sativa from Africa is called Malawi. Spain’s ACE Seeds has standardized and propagated it. Wood, earth, and sour lemon are the three most frequently mentioned aromas in Malawi. As well as tasting like tea, citrus, and herbs. Sativa cannabis with African landrace genetics is known as Malawi. Because of its sativa roots, it grows tall plants with sturdy branches. Malawi is known for producing high yields of very resinous buds under the right circumstances, with an average flowering time of 70 to 91 days. According to the breeder, Malawi thrives indoors when grown with Screen of Green and grows well outside in warm climates. Malawi seeds are offered.

Sativa-dominant Magic Melon was developed by the Humboldt Seed Company in California. It is a hybrid of honeydew melon and mango sherbert. Ripe melon, spices, and herbs are the most frequently mentioned aromas of Magic Melon. Additionally, it is said to taste like both tropical fruit and fuel. Mango Sherbert and Honeydew Melon were crossed to create Magic Melon, a sativa-dominant hybrid. Because of its sativa roots, it grows strong, tall plants. The average flowering period for the magic melon is 49 to 56 days indoors and late September to early October outdoors. It is known to produce large yields outdoors and medium yields indoors under the right circumstances. Magic Melon produces higher yields outside but grows best indoors. Magic Melon seeds and clones are offered.

Super Sour Diesel is a sativa that was produced by Reservoir Seeds breeders pollinating a female Super Silver Haze with Sour Diesel pollen. Users of this energizing strain have described it as having a gassy, pungent aroma and energizing effects. This sativa is excellent for daytime activities like socializing, creative pursuits, or even outdoor enjoyment. Both in 2009 and 2010, Super Sour Diesel took first place at the IC420 Growers Cup. There was only one release of Super Sour Diesel F1 hybrid seeds, so phenotypes are probably available as clones, though it’s possible that a small number of seeds are sitting in a collector’s chest. The strain can be raised to heights of more than 6 feet by skilled indoor and outdoor breeders, and it produces the long, thin leaves that are characteristic of Sativa plants. The use of Sea of Green (SOG) methods and other low-stress training techniques is said to produce the best indoor yields. According to reports, the plant can produce 1.25 to 1.75 pounds of flowers for every 1,000 watts of light with training.

Switzerland’s temperate to cool climates gave rise to a number of landrace strains with a variety of sativa and indica traits. Swiss landraces frequently have earthy, pine-scented aromas with a hint of citrus that reflect the habitat in which they evolved. Swiss landrace strains are resilient, capable of adjusting to challenging environmental conditions, and resistant to pests and disease. In 8–9 weeks when grown indoors and mid–late October when grown outdoors, plants reach full maturity. Swiss cultivars yield minty or forest green buds with vivid orange pistils and crystalline trichomes at full maturity. Sativa-leaning cultivars favor the outdoors because it allows them to reach their full height. Available only in seed form.

Swiss Tsunami is a rare strain with enigmatic origins that is believed to be the result of a cross between Swiss Gold, which is itself an unidentified hybrid, and Sour Tsunami, a strain related to Sour Diesel and Cannatonic’s high-CBD AC/DC. Online sources claim that this strain has a strong herbal scent and a fruity, bright flavor. Swiss Tsunami has high levels of CBD per dry weight and is related to AC/DC. Due to the rarity of Swiss Tsunami and the absence of seeds and clones online, growing information is essentially nonexistent. Online sources claim that Swiss Tsunami yields tiny nugs with the appearance of popcorn, colored dark green and purple, with orange pistils and a white coating of trichomes.

Most landrace strains from an unidentified region of Thailand are referred to as Thai. Thai strains were once famous for being the flower of choice for Thai sticks in the 1960s and 1970s due to the long, impressive size of its buds. They were thought to be pure Sativa cultivars. The stickiest flowers would be selected by customers, skewered on stems, and tied in place with string, otherwise known as “Rasta Hair.” Many seed banks offer their own proprietary phenotypes or pure Thai seeds. Consumers prefer the flower for its pleasant taste and reported energizing effects. The majority have a citrus flavor, probably from higher limonene content. Thai landrace cultivars are highly sought-after due to their genetic stability, quick flowering, and enormous yields. The strains have plenty of space to spread out their roots and grow into substantial plants when grown outdoors. When grown outdoors and for 9–10 weeks indoors, Thai strains typically reach full maturity in late November. Given that Thai landraces emit strong smells where they are planted, some odor control measures might be necessary. only in the form of seeds.

A sativa-dominant cultivar called The Prophet was created by breeders at Grindhouse Medical Seeds. It is a cross between Tang Tang and Bubba Kush. Incense, herbs, and citrus are the most frequently reported scents of The Prophet. Also, it is said to taste like diesel, herbs, and citrus with a sharp bite. The Prophet is a sativa-dominant hybrid created by crossing Tang Tang and Bubba Kush. Due to its sativa ancestry, it most likely grows tall plants with narrow leaves. The Prophet typically blooms from late October to early November indoors and between 77 and 84 days outdoors. In the right circumstances, it is known to yield extremely high yields. Super cropping and other training methods work well for the Prophet. An environment with low humidity is best because it may be mold-prone. Neither seeds nor clones are offered for the Prophet.

Triangle Mints is also known as Octagon Kush or Pink Cookies, and a phenotype of it, #23, is referred to as Wedding Cake by the Jungle Boys because of the aroma of vanilla cake and sparkling resin it gives off.
