Vietnamese Black S1 Strain Overview
Vietnamese Black S1 is an sativa from True Grit Genetics and can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 14-16 weeks. This legendary sativa from Vietnam features seed stock originally from Snowhigh. The lineage consists of Vietnamese Black crossed with Vietnamese Black, representing an S1 (self-pollinated first generation) of the original Vietnamese landrace strain. Vietnamese Black is a rare, pure Sativa landrace strain that hails from the jungles and mountains of Vietnam and is believed to have been discovered during the Vietnam War when American soldiers encountered the indigenous cannabis that grew wild in the region.
This strain is one of the few that has not been crossbred with other genetics, maintaining its pure Sativa lineage. In the age of hybrid strains, finding something this close to the natural source is like unearthing a piece of cannabis history. These can get huge with branching everywhere and long delicate 13 fingered leaves, displaying very vigorous growth. The aroma reminds many of lemongrass and galangal with some faint earthy woody notes. The buds of Vietnamese Black are commonly large in size and featuring a deep, captivating shade of blackish-purple, occasionally accented by hues of green and blue with rusty orange pistils adding warmth to the cool tones of the foliage. Vietnamese Black's reputation for providing a powerful, long-lasting cerebral high is legendary. Enthusiasts often seek it out not only for its effects but also for its rarity. With a deep connection to the cannabis culture of the 1960s and '70s, this strain holds a special place in the hearts of old-school stoners and modern connoisseurs alike.

Vietnamese Black S1 can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 98 days (14+ weeks). The difficulty to grow Vietnamese Black is known for being average to moderate, making it suitable for intermediate growers.
