Rosa Andina
Also known as: Andean Rose, Santa Marta Golden
Rosa Andina Strain Overview
Rosa Andina is a predominantly sativa cannabis strain developed by the Colombian seed bank Breeders, representing a refined selection from the legendary Santa Marta Golden landrace genetics. This strain traces its lineage to the famous Colombian Gold varieties that emerged from the Santa Marta mountains along Colombia's Caribbean coast, which became iconic during the late 1960s and 1970s cannabis import era. The strain inherits the classic characteristics of its Santa Marta Golden parent, known for its bright golden appearance and energetic effects.
Rosa Andina is characterized by its impressive vertical growth potential, developing considerable height even in limited substrate conditions. The plant produces robust stems and branches that make it particularly suitable for fiber production. Its flowers are exceptionally bright and feature a relatively short flowering cycle of approximately 53 days. The buds are covered in a dense layer of trichomes that extend across the plant's slender leaves, creating what cultivators describe as a 'resinous bomb' adorned with striking pink pistils. This visual appeal, combined with its potent effects profile, makes Rosa Andina a standout variety in the contemporary cannabis landscape.
