Arne
Arne Strain Overview
Arne is an indica-dominant cannabis strain bred by Zenseeds, a Danish breeder. This strain represents a complex hybrid with diverse international genetics, created by crossing (B3N7 x Erdpurt) with Royal Dane. The B3N7 component is an American indica, while Erdpurt brings together Swiss and Afghan genetics through the crossing of Erdbeer (Unknown Sativa x Afghanistan) with Purpurea Ticinensis from Switzerland. The Royal Dane parent contributes Danish landrace genetics and is described as a local strain that has been cultivated in Denmark for many years, known for its early harvest time and considered among the region's finest strains. This multi-generational breeding project has created a strain that embodies genetics from the USA, Switzerland, Afghanistan, and Denmark.
Arne appears to be primarily cultivated indoors and was never made available as feminized seeds by Zenseeds. The strain has been used extensively as breeding stock for numerous hybrid crosses, indicating its value in genetic preservation and development programs. While detailed information about its specific characteristics remains limited, its complex lineage suggests it likely inherits traits from both indica and sativa backgrounds, though the indica genetics appear to dominate. The strain represents an example of international cannabis breeding collaboration, bringing together landrace and hybrid genetics from multiple continents to create a unique European expression.
Arne Strain Growing Information
Arne can be cultivated indoors and was developed by Zenseeds as regular seeds only (not feminized). Based on related crosses using Arne genetics, plants tend to be bushy with good yields and mold resistance. Flowering time appears to range from 7-9 weeks for indoor cultivation. The Royal Dane parent is known for early outdoor harvest times in Denmark, typically ready by late September to early October at 55°N latitude, with some exceptional harvests occurring in late August under favorable conditions. Growing difficulty and specific yield information is not well documented, though the strain's use in multiple breeding projects suggests reasonable cultivation characteristics.
