Guatemala Sativa
Also known as: Guatemala, Guatemala Landrace
What is the Guatemala Sativa strain?
Guatemala Sativa is a sativa cannabis strain with up to 18.0% THC, known for its happy effects and berry and citrus flavor profile.
Guatemala Sativa is a pure landrace strain collected from seeds gathered in an indigenous village in the heart of the Guatemalan jungle. This Central American landrace sativa originates from the tropical jungles of Guatemala and represents a pure, stable and vigorous sativa with good potential for adaptation to moderate latitudes. It is related to some old Mexican varieties, sharing characteristics such as strongly branched plants, happy effect, good yield, moderate flowering time and a low hermaphroditism rate.
Guatemala buds have fluffy and airy pepper-shaped bright neon green nugs with thin orange hairs and a coating of chunky golden-white crystal trichomes dripping with sweet sticky resin. The plant exhibits a sativa structure with strong, balanced branchy architecture, producing plants with a Christmas tree appearance and strong secondary branches when grown outdoors. The Guatemala grows with very strong branching, even strong secondary branching, leading to slightly shorter, wider plants which may be round in overall shape once the generous flowers have pulled the long branches down to horizontal, resulting in an almost 'friendly' shape that's easy to check and tend.
