Mazar-I-Sharif

Mazar-i-Sharif is a classic Afghani strain with strong and amazing genetics. Although it is an Indica strain, this weed can still reach heights of up to 4 meters, something that is usually only observed in Sativa strains.

Mazar-i-Sharif seeds have an extremely long flowering period. This cannabis plant keeps on growing until January, as snow and cold temperatures are no problem for this plant. In traditional cultivation regions the plant is harvested in December, but if harvested in January its buds can turn red through the cold climate.

The plant gives massive yields and was mainly used to produce hashish. The buds are sieved and the material then hand-pressed. The hashish which was produced this way is called Charas. The buds and the hashish has a sweet aroma and a mellow head high, in higher dosages it becomes narcotic.

Genetics: Afghani Hashplant
Type: Outdoor
Height: 300-400 cm
Yield: 1500-2000 gram / plant
Harvest: December to January

Bit early for a review, but I can't resist - I'm looking out of the window here in hot central Europe at 'The Triffid', one of your Mazar seeds in full vegetative sprint to flowering - it's 2.50 metres high and still going up a centimetre or more a night (we're in long, long drought after a bad spring, so I'm watering it about 6 - 10 litres per 24 hours). We had the most awful spring in recent history here, forcing me to keep the seedlings under light for far longer than I wanted to. Everything was late - birds, bees, butterflies, fruit - and I'd lost hope of a decent crop. Four out of five Mazar seeds planted made it to seedling-plus - one just went yellow and keeled over even though everything was the same as its siblings. Two turned out male and have been banished to the forest, together with two Nepali females I grew from a couple of seeds I found in the lining of an old waistcoat..

Now, here's the reason for the rave review. This is not some rope plant with the only thing that's getting high being the top of it. It scents my whole yard really heavily and greets me home like a good dog. It is multi-branched at every level, a classic - I've even pressed some of its nine-leafed shade spreads, but I needed my biggest atlas to do it! In many, many years of casual (i.e. not commercial) growing I've never had a friend/plant like it. This one's got its roots in earth feeding on the seep-through from an ancient dungheap hext door. Its sisters are in big pots because my yard's north-south with high walls and I cross them into the direct light every day, so they're only two metre but bushy and smelly and wonderful.

They arrived well-packed, quickly and discretely - all the good things I always get from Shayana. More later. I've a feeling I'll be brushing up on my hash-making skills come autumn.
