Afghan Daman Selection #8

Afghan Daman Selection #8 is a indica cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.

Afghan Daman Selection #8 is a rare landrace indica strain from the Indian Landrace Exchange, sourced directly from Daman Village in the Kandahar district of Afghanistan. This strain represents the final selection from one of the most genetically diverse cannabis populations the ILE team encountered in Afghanistan. The plant exhibits a unique and impressive structure - both tall and bushy with growth starting from the bottom of the stalk, creating a round appearance with clear apical dominance resembling a mosque dome. What makes this selection particularly striking are its extremely narrow leaflets that display a flush purple color, combined with above-average bud growth covered in a thick layer of trichomes. This phenotype maintained all its leaves, branches, and buds intact through harvest in early November, demonstrating exceptional hardiness. The strain features a complex and strong aromatic profile combining fresh earth, nuts, diesel, and spices, with diesel notes being particularly prominent. As a true landrace variety from the Hindu Kush region, it carries ancient genetics that have been naturally selected over centuries, offering cultivators a glimpse into the original cannabis gene pool from Afghanistan.
