UK: Leaves of grass
The Observer
Sunday 13 Jun 2004 Four of the classic strains of cannabis Skunk#1 Skunk is today used to mean any strong weed. The original was bred by Sacred Seeds in order to combine the virtues of sativa (taste and cerebral high) with the convenience of indica. It's famous largely because there's some skunk genes in almost all the modern Amsterdam strains: Skunk#1 is a very truebreeding line. Powerful stuff with high THC. Durban Poison Despite the fearsome name, this is a relatively mild, pure sativa from South Africa. It's more or less a wild strain, but it's quite a stable and predictable line. Growers like it for its early flowering, and smokers appreciate the aniseed taste and the similarity to Thai weed. Haze Pure sativa again. Haze is lanky and can flower outdoors as late as December. It has become a legend for its intense and ethereal high - and there are those who argue that the less plant material you have to smoke to get stoned, the better for your lungs. Northern Lights The variety that led the trend to cultivate under grow lamps. Being 100 per cent indica, the plants are small and early flowering. It was developed in British Columbia - now Vancouver rivals Amsterdam as cannabis capital of the northern world - and the indoor cultivation was as much a response to the climate as to avoid detection.
