Swiss Indica
Also known as: Switzerland Indica, Swizerland - Indica
Swiss Indica Strain Overview
Swiss Indica is a 100% pure indica strain that is indigenous to the regions of Switzerland, representing any indica strain that grows natively in this region. These indigenous varieties (also called landraces) can exhibit indica or sativa characteristics depending on the climate and latitude at which it grows. This lesser-known landrace strain is native to the Alps and has been specifically bred outdoors in the Alps to survive extreme cold weather, harsh winds and freezing rain. Dutch Seeds has bred this strain for research in Switzerland and released it to those around the world who need seeds that can grow in high altitudes, like the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. As it has yet to hit the mainstream market, there is not much information available, but these are exceptionally potent cannabis varieties that are incredibly relaxing. The appearance varies depending on the phenotype, but typically features medium to large buds with coloration ranging from light minty green to dark olive green. According to some sources, this strain's genetics may include Afghani and Afghani Landrace backgrounds, though this originates from United States breeding programs rather than the native Swiss varieties.
