Sweet Afghani Delicious
Also known as: S.A.D., SAF
Overview
Sweet Afghani Delicious, commonly abbreviated as S.A.D., was created by Spanish seed company Sweet Seeds from their most powerful and aromatic Black Domina mother plant, selected from seed in 1998 and famous in the cannabis scene as Black Domina '98. This heavily indica dominant hybrid strain (80% indica/20% sativa) was created through self-pollination of this elite Black Domina, making it an S1 (first generation selfed) seed. Since its introduction, Sweet Afghani Delicious has won several cannabis cups, including 1st place at Copa del Plata Argentina (2006), Semilla del Millón Málaga (2007), and Indoor Bio Cannabis Champions Cup (2009).
The strain produces dense, triangle-shaped blue-green nugs with thin orange hairs and tiny, blue-tinted white crystal trichomes. The flowers showcase earthy, spicy, and sweet aromas that reflect its Afghani lineage, with a sweet and spicy citrusy lemon flavor with a peppery and woody aroma. It features a sweet intense aroma and musky flavor inherited from its Afghan ancestors, with high homogeneity characteristics in all its descendants. The strain is particularly valued for its resin production and resistance to pests and molds, making it an excellent choice for both novice and experienced cultivators seeking a potent, traditional indica experience.
