Vortex
Vortex emerged from Subcool’s effort to capture the qualities of one of his favorite rare cannabis plants in a seed line that could be shared with other growers. Apollo 13—the prized Brothers Grimm hybrid made from Genius × P75—served as…

Orient Express
Orient Express takes two very different Asian cannabis populations and compresses them into a plant practical enough for a relatively small garden. ACE Seeds paired a selected Vietnam Black mother—chosen for resinous, aromatic, productive flowers—with an indica line from China’s…
La Nina
La Niña carries one of the more complicated identities in classic Dutch cannabis breeding. Before Mr. Nice Seedbank released it under its current name, the genetic family had been associated with El Niño, an award-winning strain from the late 1990s.…
KC 45
KC 45 was created for conditions that would make many highly refined marijuana hybrids uncomfortable. K.C. Brains began the project with seed from a wild Russian cannabis plant that breeder K.C. personally collected in 2004, then crossed that material with…
Carnival
Carnival was bred around a feeling rather than a fashionable flavor. When Ministry of Cannabis introduced the strain in 2007, the goal was to capture the loose, energetic atmosphere suggested by its name: conversation flowing easily, music becoming more immersive,…
Yummy
Yummy is a strain whose uncomplicated name hides a surprisingly serious genetic background. Resin Seeds created the cultivar by taking a particularly desirable Yumbolt female selected in 2003 and crossing it with a G13 Haze male, bringing together old Humboldt-influenced…
Killing Fields
Killing Fields comes from a period of Dutch cannabis breeding when color, Haze-like potency, and unusual flavor could matter more than chasing the highest laboratory THC number. Sannie’s Seeds built the cultivar by placing The One—a private mother selected for…
High Tension
High Tension is a meeting point between Colombian sativa heritage and several of the cultivars that helped define European cannabis breeding. World of Seeds developed the strain around Colombian Mango Biche, a long-flowering South American line valued for its energetic…
Psicodelica
Psicodelicia occupies an unusual place among sativa-dominant cannabis strains. Instead of requiring the long flowering period normally associated with tropical-style marijuana, Sweet Seeds developed this cultivar around a comparatively compact 8–9 week bloom cycle while retaining an energetic, cerebral personality.…
Arjan’s Ultra Haze
Green House Seed Co. lists Arjan’s Ultra Haze as an 80% sativa strain combining Neville’s Haze with Cambodian and Laos genetics. It belongs to an older school of marijuana breeding in which long flowering periods, dramatic vertical growth, unusual aromatics,…
Passion Orange Guava
Passion Orange Guava is one of those cannabis strains whose name sounds exaggerated until a properly grown flower is opened. Citrus arrives immediately, often closer to freshly crushed tangerine peel than generic lemon, followed by ripe tropical fruit, guava-like sweetness,…
Pink Passionfruit
Pink Passionfruit approaches tropical cannabis from a brighter angle than many fruit-heavy modern hybrids. Opening a well-cured jar can release ripe passionfruit, grapefruit peel, banana, berries, and candied citrus almost immediately, but the sweetness is supported by cream, earth, and…
