Shiva Shanti II has a storied background that reflects the innovative spirit of Sensi Seeds, developed using traditional breeding techniques refined over decades by one of the industry's most respected genetic banks. Originating from the work of legendary breeders, Shiva Shanti II has built a reputation since its creation in the early 2000s, with Sensi Seeds known for their meticulous approach in producing a strain that remains true to its indica-dominant heritage. The strain was originally developed in the 1990s as an affordable, high-yielding hybrid that has been developed by professional breeders since the 90s and shouldn't be underestimated.
Shiva Shanti II is the product of a well-orchestrated genetic cross that involves diverse strains known for their robust characteristics, tracing its roots to an intricate blend of Afghani, Skunk, and additional indica elements. The lineage is described specifically as Afghani x (Skunk x Afghani), with contributions from strains like Sensi Star and Euforia, and further incorporates characteristics from Double Gum, which itself is a bubble gum mix combining Afghani and Blueberry genetics. Known as 'the sister of the sisters,' Shiva Shanti II has all the beautiful qualities as the original Shiva Shanti with less of the pungent garlic bud aroma. Visual inspection reveals a compact, thick bud structure typical of potent indica strains, with dense buds having a heavy, resinous coating that gives them a sticky, almost syrupy texture, featuring bright green hues that often contrast with deep purple undertones and orange or fiery red pistils scattered throughout.
