Description

Due to popular demand we have very limited stock of these rare heirloom seeds. This strain is available in our shop courtesy of Ace Seeds, the official reseller for the Indian Landrace Exchange. We would like to thank Ace Seeds for their kind collaboration.

Swabi is located in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Although positioned at 34°N, the area consists of an expansive, uninterrupted plain situated between the Indus and Kabul Rivers, which merge toward the district’s southern end. 

Due to the open geography, cannabis tends to be grown in discreet pockets tucked within vegetation, inside mango groves, or behind tall compound walls. These cultivated areas remain easy to reach yet concealed from public view. Increased government enforcement has already made a major impact on local cannabis production, and as the district continues to urbanize, many farmers have moved away from the crop in favour of livelihoods deemed more socially acceptable.

This hash plant variety performs particularly well outdoors in hot, dry regions, thanks to its natural tolerance for high temperatures and drought. It also handles cold spells during flowering and significant temperature shifts throughout its life cycle without difficulty. Growing it indoors is also possible. Moderate levels of nutrients are best for the whole cycle, with slightly higher NPK levels in the first two-thirds of the flowering period.

Swabi Hash Plant matures rapidly and forms relatively modest bract structures, but compensates with an abundance of exceptionally sticky resin. Its resin resembles that of classic highland hashplant varieties, featuring small but plentiful trichomes with a gluey texture. The aroma is bold and evocative, comparable to fast-flowering broad leaf strains, with clear notes of raw mango and peppery spice.

The smoke produces a clear, uplifting effect similar to what is usually found in long-flowering narrow leaf cultivars, and the high endures for an unexpectedly long time. The impact begins almost instantly, then gradually settles into a smooth, balanced state.

Both its physical traits and its effects bring to mind Himalayan hashplant genetics: hollow stems, mango-and-pepper aromatics, and a pronounced focus on resin production. In regions bordering Punjab, it is widely acknowledged that wild cannabis plants often intermingle with cultivated or introduced varieties, including in places such as Swabi. Yet farmers here still value the preservation of traditional heirloom qualities and take steps to protect them from genetic decline.

Germination info: ILE seeds must be planted directly in soil. A heating mat is beneficial during cooler months. The average germination time is 5-12 days. Do NOT throw away your soil if the seedlings don't appear after a few days!
ILE will not accept any reclamation regarding germination issues if a customer does not follow this germination method.
