Afghanica - feminized seeds
Afghanica, as the name suggests, comes from Afghanistan and originally grows in a valley at around 800 m above sea level. Afghanistan has a continental climate with hot summers and very cold winters and as a result this landrace is very robust and fast flowering. This strain is relatively short growing with thick side branches and was traditionally grown to produce very strong hashish.

Growing Afghanica
Afghanica is highly resistant to disease and mold and is a great strain for beginners. This 100% indica can be grown indoors and outdoors and has a short flowering time of 7-9 weeks.

People with eating disorders, such as anorexia, use this strain for its appetite-stimulating effects. Afghanica is an excellent strain for pain relief, especially chronic pain.
