What is the Sinai strain?
Sinai is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 21.0% THC, known for its happy effects and earthy and grape flavor profile.
Sinai is a rare and ancient landrace cannabis strain originating from the rugged, arid mountains of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt. This purebred variety has been cultivated for centuries by local farmers and Bedouin tribes, who have preserved its unique genetic profile in the harsh, yet fertile, desert environment. Originally collected in various batches between 1990 and 1997, this Egyptian Cannabis Landrace was traditionally cultivated by the Bedouin in remote wadis using basic methods, occasionally using mud from the Nile but usually only camel dung.
The strain exhibits remarkable diversity through two distinct phenotypes: one that stretches tall with long, thin leaves (sativa-type reaching 1.3-1.8 meters), and another that remains shorter and bushier with dense, resin-coated flowers (indica-type ranging 0.6-1.5 meters with a compact Christmas-tree profile). This landrace is exceptionally hardy due to the demanding conditions in Egypt's mountains, which range from around 50°C in summer to near freezing conditions in winter. The strain can show semi-autoflowering traits and is characterized by early maturation, with a regional harvest typically occurring in September.
