What is the Afghan Hawaiian strain?
Afghan Hawaiian is a indica cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and cheese and earthy flavor profile.
Afghan Hawaiian is an indica-dominant hybrid (70% indica/30% sativa) created through the cross of UK Cheese and Lavender strains, originally bred by Canadian licensed producer OrganiGram, Inc. This strain has also been produced by Expert Seeds and other breeders. The strain was specifically developed for medical applications, particularly for neurological disorders and spasticity. Afghan Hawaiian produces dense, popcorn-shaped buds that are neon green with light gold undertones, translucent amber hairs, and a generous coating of chunky white trichomes. The buds are notably resinous and sticky, making them excellent for concentrate production. Being descendants of the legendary Afghani landrace, both parent strains contribute fruity and floral fragrances alongside impressive calming effects. Afghan Hawaiian represents a harmonious fusion of robust Afghan genetics with more modern Western breeding, resulting in a strain that maintains traditional therapeutic benefits while offering enhanced complexity and refinement.
