Kashmiri
Also known as: Kashmir, Kashmir Landrace, Kashmiri Indica
Kashmiri Strain Overview
Kashmiri is an authentic indica landrace strain originating from the Kashmir region of northern India and Pakistan, cultivated for centuries in the shadows of the Himalayan valleys. This pure indica hashplant has been specifically domesticated by local farmers for hashish production, developing unique characteristics through generations of selective breeding in the region's challenging high-altitude environment. The strain displays archetypal indica traits with robust, columnar structures, few but powerful branches, and distinctively large, dark, broad leaves with wide leaflets reminiscent of 'jurassic' indica genetics.
Due to its geographic location at approximately 30°N latitude and high elevation (around 5,000 feet), Kashmiri genetics have evolved exceptional resistance to humidity, cold, and fungi, as they must flower during the rainy monsoon summer with cold nights. This hardy landrace produces gorgeous, dense, resinous buds with an exceptionally high flower-to-leaf ratio for a landrace variety. The plants typically develop beautiful, intense shades of red, purple, and even black coloration, which becomes more pronounced with cooler temperatures during flowering. The strain represents an exclusive indica delicacy rarely encountered in modern cannabis markets, offering growers and enthusiasts access to pure, unhybridized genetics that have remained largely unchanged for millennia.
