Amsterdam's Magic
Also known as: Amsterdams Magic, Amsterdam Magic
Amsterdam's Magic Strain Overview
Amsterdam's Magic is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from the Netherlands' renowned cannabis breeding scene in the early 2000s. The strain was specifically developed to capture the essence of Amsterdam's famous coffee shop culture, combining reliable effects with distinctive sensory characteristics. While its exact genetic origins are somewhat debated among cannabis historians, most sources agree it represents a careful selection of Dutch genetics with some influence from North American varieties.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by vibrant orange pistils weaving through forest green calyxes. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at its potency. The buds often display subtle purple hues when grown under cooler conditions, particularly in the final weeks of flowering. Amsterdam's Magic has gained recognition for its consistent performance and reliable effects, making it a staple in some European cannabis markets.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile and balanced effects that have made it popular among both recreational and medicinal users. The strain's name reflects its connection to Amsterdam's cannabis heritage rather than indicating any specific magical properties. Breeders focused on creating a plant that would thrive in the Netherlands' climate while delivering the quality experience associated with Amsterdam's world-famous cannabis culture.

Amsterdam's Magic Strain Growing Information
Amsterdam's Magic is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant typically flowers in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a temperate climate similar to its Dutch origins and can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Plants typically reach a medium height of 120-160 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible in humid conditions. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and LST (low-stress training) to maximize yields.
