Nepal Jam
Also known as: Nepalese Jam
Nepal Jam Strain Overview
Nepal Jam is a pure sativa landrace strain developed by the Spanish seed bank Ace Seeds through selective breeding of Nepalese landrace genetics. The strain originates from the high-altitude regions of Nepal, specifically the Kathmandu Valley area, where it has adapted to the local climate and growing conditions over centuries. Breeders at Ace Seeds worked to stabilize and preserve the authentic characteristics of this traditional Nepalese sativa, focusing on maintaining its genetic purity while improving consistency for cultivation.
The strain is characterized by its tall, slender structure with long internodes and narrow, serrated leaves typical of pure sativas. Nepal Jam plants develop elongated, spear-shaped buds with moderate density and a distinctive appearance featuring orange pistils against light green calyxes. The flowers are typically covered in a moderate layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The strain is known for its relatively fast flowering time compared to other pure sativas, which is unusual for landrace genetics that often require extended maturation periods.
Nepal Jam is celebrated for preserving authentic landrace characteristics that have become increasingly rare in modern hybridized cannabis. The strain offers a genuine representation of Nepalese cannabis genetics with minimal hybridization influence, making it valuable for both preservation purposes and for breeders seeking authentic sativa traits. Its adaptation to high-altitude conditions gives it particular resilience and unique terpene profiles that reflect its geographical origins.

Nepal Jam Strain Growing Information
Nepal Jam is considered moderately difficult to grow, suitable for intermediate cultivators. The strain has a flowering time of 9-11 weeks indoors and is typically ready for harvest outdoors in late October to early November in the Northern Hemisphere. Plants can reach heights of 2-3 meters (6.5-10 feet) outdoors and 1.5-2 meters (5-6.5 feet) indoors, requiring adequate vertical space. Yields are moderate to high with proper care, producing approximately 400-600 grams per square meter indoors and 500-800 grams per plant outdoors. The strain prefers warm, sunny climates with low humidity and good air circulation. It is adaptable to both indoor and outdoor cultivation but thrives best in environments that mimic its native high-altitude conditions. Growers should provide ample nutrients during vegetative growth and reduce feeding during flowering to prevent nutrient burn. The plants benefit from training techniques like topping or SCROG to manage height and improve light penetration.
