Akaisha
Akaisha
Overview
Akaisha is a predominantly indica cannabis strain developed by Prana Seeds, representing a carefully crafted genetic combination of Northern Lights, Prana Skunk, and Pakistan Citral. This strain exemplifies the breeding philosophy of combining classic genetics to create a balanced, therapeutic cultivar suited for both novice and experienced growers. The strain originates from a three-way cross that brings together the legendary Northern Lights for its reliable indica characteristics, the unique Prana Skunk for its cerebral qualities and pest resistance, and Pakistan Citral from the Hindu Kush region for its hash-making heritage and resin production.
Akaisha exhibits classic skunk phenotype characteristics with a compact growth structure that maintains medium height and develops a single central cola with strong lower side branching. The plant displays distinctive razor-like, long thin leaves in a lighter green color typical of skunk varieties. During flowering, the buds develop a light, fluffy texture while maintaining exceptional stickiness due to abundant resin production. The strain's appearance reflects its indica dominance while showing some influence from its sativa components in leaf structure. The flowering time is relatively quick at approximately 8 weeks (56 days), making it an efficient option for both indoor and outdoor cultivation.
