HashPlant
Also known as: Hash Plant
HashPlant Strain Overview
HashPlant is a classic indica-dominant cannabis strain developed by Sensi Seeds in the 1980s. The strain was bred specifically for hash production, as its name suggests, by crossing Northern Lights #1 with an undisclosed Afghani landrace strain. This genetic heritage gives HashPlant its robust growth characteristics and potent resin production, making it a favorite among traditional hash makers and commercial growers alike. The strain gained popularity during the cannabis breeding renaissance of the 1980s and 1990s and remains a foundational genetic in many modern indica hybrids.
HashPlant plants typically display classic indica morphology with broad, dark green leaves and a compact, bushy structure. The buds are dense and resinous, often appearing frosty with a thick coating of trichomes that gives them a silvery-white appearance. The flowers emit a pungent aroma that combines earthy, skunky notes with subtle hints of pine and spice, reflecting its Afghani heritage. When properly cured, the buds develop a complex flavor profile that translates well to both smoking and hash production.
Notable features of HashPlant include its exceptional resin production, reliable growth patterns, and consistent effects. The strain is particularly valued for its ability to produce high-quality hash due to the abundant trichome coverage and sticky resin content. While not as widely available as some modern commercial strains, HashPlant maintains a dedicated following among connoisseurs and growers who appreciate its historical significance and traditional characteristics. The strain's stability and predictability have made it a valuable genetic resource for breeders seeking to incorporate classic indica traits into new hybrids.

HashPlant Strain Growing Information
HashPlant is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants have a flowering time of approximately 7-9 weeks indoors and are typically ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. Indoor yields are moderate to high, producing around 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in suitable climates.
The strain prefers a warm, dry climate with plenty of sunlight when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation is successful with both soil and hydroponic systems. HashPlant plants remain relatively short, typically reaching 90-120 cm indoors and 150-180 cm outdoors, making them suitable for limited space grows. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding during flowering.
