Himalaya Snow Strain Overview
Himalaya Snow is a remarkable sativa-dominant hybrid (90% sativa) from ACE Seeds, developed as an improved charas strain. This strain represents a masterful genetic fusion of two pure Nepalese landraces—Annapurna and Kathmandu (Nepal Mist)—combined with a touch of the legendary old-school Kali Mist. This intricate lineage creates a cannabis experience that embodies the wild, pure essence of the Himalayan peaks. The strain was developed to enhance the traditional Nepalese charas genetics with increased cannabinoid content and more sophisticated terpene profiles compared to its pure landrace parents.
Himalaya Snow exhibits two distinct phenotypes. The first phenotype stays true to its Nepalese roots, growing tall and elegant with slender, elongated branches, fine large leaves, and traditional sativa characteristics. These plants produce medium-sized, fluffy buds that are completely covered in white resin with exceptionally abundant trichomes. The second phenotype shows more modern hybrid traits with a stockier structure, broader leaves, and larger, denser flowers. Both phenotypes carry the essence of their heritage while offering improved resin production compared to wild Nepalese varieties. The strain is noted for its exceptional resistance to cold, rain, and mold, making it suitable for challenging growing conditions where other strains might struggle.
