Golden Sands Strain Overview
Golden Sands is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Humboldt Seed Company through the crossing of GMO, Kashmir OG, and BlackBerry Kush genetics. This strain was specifically created with live rosin hash makers in mind, featuring an 80% indica and 20% sativa genetic composition. The strain emerged through years of selective breeding and backcrossing to enhance the driest, sandiest, and most bulbous trichomes possible. Golden Sands produces compact, productive plants that develop conical flowers covered with thick resin layers rich in cannabinoids and terpenes. The buds exhibit dense resin coverage with purple flakes, creating a visually striking appearance with bright green and purple conical spears. This strain is particularly valued for its exceptional fresh frozen hash yields, reportedly averaging above 3%, making it highly sought after by both traditional and new-school hash makers.
