Turkish
Also known as: Turkish Landrace, Turkish Kurdistan
What is the Turkish strain?
Turkish is a indica cannabis strain, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and coffee flavor profile.
The Turkish landrace is a cannabis strain personally collected at source from Turkey, originating from latitudes 37N-38N at elevations of 700-1000 meters above sea level. This early maturing Turkish cannabis landrace exhibits similar characteristics to Near Eastern dry-sieve hashish strains such as Lebanese and Syrian, and was most likely domesticated for production of sieved hashish, though it may have some history for use as bud too. The strain is classified as mostly indica and can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouses. One of the best qualities of this plant is that it is harvested starting as early as mid-July till mid-August, making it appealing for those who don't want to wait too long or don't have enough time to wait due to weather conditions such as short summers. The plants have been grown for centuries and the tradition in hashish making is as old as these plants. Fast-flowering, compact, and resinous, this landrace exhibits aromas that are hashy, floral, and spicy, with notes of coffee on curing.
