Malawi Black
What is the Malawi Black strain?
Malawi Black is a sativa cannabis strain with up to 27.0% THC, known for its energetic effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Malawi Black is a rare sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by ScareCrow Seeds through crossing two legendary landrace strains: Malawi Gold from southeastern Africa and Colombian Black from the highlands of Colombia. This strain represents a unique fusion of African and South American cannabis genetics, combining the intense cerebral effects of Malawi Gold with the powerful psychoactive properties of Colombian Black. The strain inherits the long flowering time characteristic of equatorial sativas, requiring 10-14 weeks to reach maturity depending on the phenotype. Malawi Black embodies the characteristics of its parent strains, featuring the complex terpene profile and resinous nature of Malawi Gold alongside the distinctive dark purple coloration and fruity aromatics that can be found in certain phenotypes of Colombian Black. As a landrace hybrid, it maintains many of the hardy characteristics of its parent strains, showing good resistance to environmental stresses while requiring patience due to its extended flowering period.
