Purest Indica IBL
Also known as: Steve Murphy Afghan, The Steve Murphy Afghan IBL
What is the Purest Indica IBL strain?
Purest Indica IBL is a indica cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and ammonia and earthy flavor profile.
Purest Indica IBL (Inbred Line) is a historically significant pure indica cannabis strain that represents one of the foundational genetics in modern cannabis breeding. This historic inbred line originated from 1983-era seed stock that came through Seattle Greg, who received the original seeds in 1979 from author Murphy Stevens. This variety served as the foundational parent for what would become the Northern Lights family—specifically, the early NL #1 through NL #5 lines. The strain represents original broadleaf Afghan genetics that were maintained as an IBL through selective inbreeding rather than hybridization.
The Purest Indica IBL was notably never sent to Holland or distributed widely, as Seattle Greg intentionally withheld these seeds from Nevil Schoenmakers and The Seed Bank to maintain control over the breeding direction of the Northern Lights project. This preservation effort has resulted in a direct descendant of those original Afghan broadleaf genetics—not a reconstruction, but a genuine continuation, with the original seed stock stored in a Seattle freezer since the early 1980s and recovered by Seattle Greg's family in 2019. The strain exhibits classic hash plant characteristics with compact structure, broadleaf dominance, dense branching, long draping leaflets, and a distinct Christmas-tree shape. Buds are large, sticky, and leafy, with strong preferences for low humidity conditions. Aromas lean toward burnt rubber, skunk, and acrid earth.
