Kandahar regular

Description from Afghan Seed Connection

Origin and Climate

Nestled along the Arghandab river at over 1,000 metres above sea level, Kandahar boasts a hot, semi-arid climate that's almost desert-like. This region, often regarded as Afghanistan's de facto capital, is a vital hub for trade and agriculture, renowned for its high-quality cannabis. For centuries, local growers have cultivated unique landrace strains that preserve genetic diversity found nowhere else. The Afghan Seed Connection offers Kandahar regular seeds, making these ancient plants accessible to growers worldwide.

Growing Characteristics

Kandahar plants thrive in full sun and prefer cool flowering temperatures. They grow vigorously, reaching heights of 150–250 cm with strong branches and deep-green fan leaves. Female plants are typically harvested between October and November, yielding up to 600 g of top-shelf indica buds per plant. Males also have their place in breeding programs, offering strong resin production and fast growth.

These resilient plants are well-suited for outdoor cultivation in arid, warm climates. They are drought- and heat-tolerant, making them ideal for growers in similar environments.

Flavor, Aroma, and Effects

Kandahari cannabis is celebrated for its unique terpene profile, featuring upfront notes of toasted coffee, wood, and moist soil with hints of green apples and blueberries. The buds deliver a potent effect that combines a pseudo-psychedelic head rush with a long-lasting body stone. With up to 26% THC, this strain is best enjoyed in the evenings or on weekends when you can fully appreciate its relaxing and immersive properties.
