In my teens when I started smoking, at 14 - I didn't care what strain it was, it got me stoned. When I was in my 20's, I was choosier and still didn't know what strain I was smoking because back then, you got it on the streets, not a dispensary. In my 30's and 40's, I had started to notice the difference in the head buzz as well as the body buzz and chose the strains that made me feel good, energetic and later found out those were sativa strains. In my 50's I dedicated myself to sativas with an occasional indica or hybrid. Now in my 60's, disabled and a medical marijuana patient, I prefer sativa strains or hybrids for the most part but do enjoy that late night indica to help me sleep. It's no longer a "habit" to smoke reefies... it has become a lifestyle after 46 years.
@@dannymack1196 it doesn't always work that way. If it is an f1/s1/r1 it is going to show a wide variation in mixtures. Some will come out more sativa, some more imdica, some even mixes etc. It depends on what the breeder picks for further generations. Also, the breeder could very well have back crossed the F1 right back to the haze. Wish breeding was as simple as crossing two things and ending up with a bunch of homogenous and predictable results
NL is in some popular "sativas" .... might not be true, but in my experience, for some reason NL in a cross emphasises "the sativa components of the high" but this video is certainly for produced by someone searching google.
Growing up we use to get Punto Rojo from Colombia, it was citrusy and pungent and every so often you'd get a pheno that smelled straight up of lemon ammonia cleaner. The high was euphoric and clear headed and you'd get a good case of the giggles. The bud itself was a dark lime green with fiery red hairs was very fluffy and had almost as much leaf as bud. It was the ONLY decent bud to be had in my area back in the day. Now a days you can't find it to save your life.
I was getting wrecked from smoking indicas all day so i switched to sativas and i find its clear high in the mind only and no body buzz that i need for pain relief. I like smoking hybrids as they got both worlds put into one plant. But i will always be a indica lover
Green crack is one of the best sativa’s I’ve ever had . Better than Durban poison and Acapulco gold . It’s a refreshing, energetic, euphoric, citrus, creative Buzz 🐝.
Unfortunately it's almost looking as those sativas are going extinct here in the states I mean of course you can still get them but they're becoming harder and harder to come by...( Rec market) Everybody wants that Indica hybrid 38% THC , me stick me with a nice sativa at 20 -25% or whatever I'm coo..
No they do not favor Indica so much , the sativa require 2-4 weeks more flowering time so it is quicker so yield vs time is money and Indica wins but quality is where the sativa strains win and a great daytime smoke it is . When is do my first grow it will be a Sativa perhaps Durban Poison .
Moby Dick for yield . Durban Poison Tijuanna Gorilla Glue for stoners with high tolerance .@@stephenhawking9451 Something for everybody , Blue Dream gets alot of fan love at 6 lol.
Time is money , growers do not want sativa due to another extra 4 weeks or more to harvest . Consumers suffer at the mercy of profit over quality and now being misinformed about cannabis as if flavor & taste is something needed but is used only to sell with using names like cream & cookies ect. The mental physical effects mean everything not the name or taste & smell . Bruce Banner was well named as it is strong in THC and hits ya hard . Sativa is for daytime and indica is for night time or pain relief !
Am an indica lover but also enjoy sativas and hybrids during the day. One of my favourite sativas is the legendary Super Silver Haze. Very surprised it's not on this list.
Jackherer is one of the best hybrids with a sativa high. The indica trait it has just makes you feel relaxed with less anxiety. Really clean clear high though.
Jack herer is definitely one of my favourite sativa/hybrids! Reminds me of the late 90s😊 Actually JH is one of the strains you can get as medical marijuana in the Netherlands!!! Very good choice!!!
One of my favorites. I like to let the Sativa dominant strains go a little past full ripe. Like 30% amber. Seems to knock the racy feeling they can tend to give sometimes.
I'm growing Original Haze a three way cross of Columbia strains, bought from Authentic Genetics. The two females are huge, four feet tall and five feet wide, taking up a lot of space in my indoor grow room. 10 weeks into flower and many more weeks yet to ripen.
I've grown Sativa Star (supposedly a 100% sativa), AKA "Godzilla" twice now. First year, plant went into flower after 16 weeks, then, even w/ topping, grew over 9 ft tall and was in its 10th week of flower when we got our first freeze. Had to harvest early, but the flower was still delicious (just small and short lasting). It was an enormous harvest for a single plant. This year, I topped twice and got it to flower early. Just harvested. BIG FAT TALL colas, flavors of mango and lemon. Huge sativa buzz!
No such thing as a 100 % anything anymore it's all been cross bred Not a bad thing but a fact unless you go to the country of origin it's not strait and if you are lucky enough to get seeds and grow it some ware else it will be different no a offense meant to anyone who claims to be a master breeder or farmer I've been growing since 1978 and I still learn thing's
I’m with you Miguel. I grew a couple of Lao Golds from the real seed company this year, 2022. Smoking it is very cerebral and euphoric with lots of positive energy. There’s no anxiety or jitters like the Durban Poison I grew a few years back. I made a cross with a chocolate Thai male and will be growing out a few this coming year 2023. Cheers 🍻!
I just grew some land race Sinai strain, it turned out to be the sativa variety. Very nice and smooth, clean almost spearmint with a big turkish delight flavour mixed with mild hash notes. The high is like being smacked with a pillow, just head befuddlement. Easy to grow, not the smelliest plant in the world but unlike anything around and a fast finisher

Any chance you live in nyc area? I was raised on uptown Haze and came back to Bergen last year after living in Humboldt since about 2014. I'd love to connect if you're not too busy to be open to the thought. I share the surname you chose for your flower, if that pushes the needle at all.
what about power plant and pure power plant . that was brought to L.A in the late 80's from Africa its a pure sativa and its the one where the american agencies were fucking about with and made that G13 from u no the strain were u get no parania at all.. anyway the story goes they beefed it up and thats why you get pure power plant.. and thats when in the start of the 90's you started to get skunk that was power plant beefed up to make the pure power plant its a great sativa you should grow that im sure the seeds are cheap now plus ur better going old school seeds from the 90's cause all these new strains have been GMO'D and you just get mostly T.H.C but all the older strains you get full spectrum witch is well better for you i hate all these new cheesy names like marshmallow ice cream! and strawberry cookies its a scandel what all these suit n tie growers are doing to the market and to the strains.. real cannabis is for the people and now its all about money its out of order!! everyone should just grow their own and when they do they will make it illegal again when big co-op's cant make cash good luck im here in the UK and you dont get any sativa's growin here cause folks that grow just think about the cash and beastying the plants with chemicals disgrace.. iv not hade a good taste of a sativa in 12 years bro and i cant smoke indica makes me sleep to much and get anxiety.. i need a good sativa bro ... take my word for it about the old school sativa strains ur better growing them... and send sum over lol..
@@deborahwhit118 Not sure what particular cut you had or how it was grown, but the Durban I speak of taste somewhat like dark licorice and gets a person SUPER ripped.
So right, the yields from Panama Red in the seventies with bush grows cannot be compared to the delicate plants of today. Multi generations of indoor grows with seed selection just for indoor, has today's varieties with no adaptability to survive minor changes in the weather. Can't even get Panama Red regular seeds anymore.
I've preferred sativa since the early 80's and in the last few years I've come to fall in love with 'Anslinger'. AZ here and Anslinger's Demise by Shango is my favorite.
Anslinger Demise This strain is neither indica or sativa, but a hybrid that provides a combination of effects. It can provide either of the effects based on how it is produced.
Just finished growing the Serious 6 and its a unique and interesting sativa, very cerebral and something that i can smoke pretty much all day. Perfect for depression, anxiety and ptsd. Giving off an energetic effect leaning into a body buzz! Definitely a new favourite and pretty easy to grow indoors plus only 8 week flowering time for a Sativa which is amazing!
Durban Poison . I’m smoking it right now . I’m also from South Africa so been smoking it my whole life when I still lived there . Now I’m in weed heaven . I live in Thailand . Going to have to seek out these strains!!
If you have never tried it before Tropicana Cherry is an AMAZING sativa. So purple its almost black and covered in crystals. Gives me the perfect daytime buzz to want to get up and get something done NOW!!!!
Maui wowie,panama red,purple haze,and Acapulco gold I like the old school sativas but super lemon haze, blue dream, and strawberry cough are great as well
Most growers plant shorter Indica fast flowering strains when some of us prefer Sativa and 10 - 12 foot Sativa plants that are a problem and long time flowering 10-16 weeks hurts growers yields per time involved . Sativa is hard too get for me and growers ignore most Sativa for good reasons. The value of a energetic day time creative high is very high on my wish list . The Kali Mist strain is number 1 on my list in value because of the uplifting energetic effects that gets you going during the day. Utopia Haze at night perhaps lol.
My understanding that I’ve gained from about a year and a half of growing is that the only real difference between sativa and Indica is morphological. Sativas can give you couch lock and Indicas can give an energetic, cerebral high. That has more to do with when it’s harvested. An early harvest will couch lock you, a harvest when all the trichomes are full and milky white will give you a more energetic head high and a later harvest will give a more mellow, chilled out high.
@@DanielM1224 no that later harvest, typically approx. 30% amber trichomes, will give you less thc and more cbn. The amber in the trichomes is the thc degrading into the cbn. The cbn is very calming and recommended for people who are prone to anxiety attacks or tend to “freak out”. Early harvest is very much the opposite of that. Even I get anxiety from an early harvest bud when never before in my life otherwise 😂 That full, milky white with little to no amber gives the typically desired effect

If you enjoy growing huge plants Malawi Gold is a fun one. The last time I grew it they reached 15' in the woods. Can't imagine how tall they'd get with full sun.
Hey, thanks for the free plug! How did you guys know we concentrate on sativa dominant strains that can be grown outdoors anywhere in continental USA! Been growin since 80's and can tell you todays strains are weaker than pre millenial equatorial brick weed! Weed used to look shitty but had great high! now weed looks good and the high is shit! J?

In my opinion the best haze's come from south east Asia brought back from Vietnam in the seventies strains like Chocolate Thai, Golden Temple Thai, Highland Thai which is the mainstay to strains like DJ shorts Blueberry, Temple Flo (Flo) , and many others it's gives these strains there spicey, earthy terpenes floral terps hence the name FLO.... As well as strains like Mekong Haze which are nearly impossible to get your hands on as well as strains like karala from India that are crazy on flowering times 22/26 weeks of flower😳 so they become extinct because of this long and hard process to flower these types hence the cross breeding in the 90s so some of these could be brought indoors and flowing was cut down with the crosses Afghani Purple, and several other middle eastern native 100% Indica strains to tame these sativa monsters 👍🏻
Last year I found a stash of old seeds we brought back from Vietnam & Thailand in the late 80's.I'll never forget the smoke..but alas, probably through bad storage (lost) none germinated☹️
Original haze was sativa bag seed found by the haze brothers in santa cruz. Nobody ever really smoked the original haze. The haze brothers gave seeds to Neville, Positronics and some other person who eventually founded a seed company. They crossed the original haze to NL5 and made the haze that everyone knows.
Nice to see one of my favorites with Chocolope so many don't know of but how is Jack Herer not even on the list?? Sour Jack is my personal favorite but Jack H has been my go to ever since I was in High School 20 years ago. . I've never heard of any of the other strains named and I'm all sativa all day.
When was this list made in the 70s? A sativa list without Sour D, Super Silver Haze or Thai? I would put Sour D on top and then SSH even though SSH is pound for pound most cup winning sativa for a couple years. Sir, your list is subpar at the very best.
I was given some bag seeds around 2006 that a friend said was called "wonderberry". I'm not sure that's what it was though and I can't really find any such strain name online. It had the biggest football shaped top colas for a 4 ft. plant I had ever grown. It was a very, very narrow-leafed sativa strain and the buds, although massive in girth were so very light and whispy compared to any others I had grown it was unreal, very powerful. It wasn't a fruity or gassy tasting variety but still nice, and it was a favorite of mine and my friends. Once dried the buds were huge but light as air. We joked about how when you smoked it you would forget what you came into the room for. I had to stop my indoor grow here in Ohio when I moved and I lost the strain but would love to find it again or something similar. Can any growers recommend any strains that sound like that?
Best weed i had was 20 years ago. Purple with seeds and sticky. Never had a buzz like that since smoking that mystery weed from some bikers down the street in saskatoon. My cuz lived in a corner basement suite and we stayed there for a week and that was when i was the most highest in my life. I wish i didnt lose the full pill bottle of seeds. Damn . What a loss
The narrator is wrong. It does not take 14 week to START flower. The flower TIME is 14 weeks. It depends on the light cycle. He got it wrong all the time.
To me, it seems like everyone is just imagining these flavor and effect differences...I mean, I notice differences, but not so clearly defined. Nothing tastes like people say it does to me, they all taste like cannabis to me....and the effect is just strong or weak.....to me. That being said, I managed to grow a big, beautiful crop this year! I lost track of the strain tags, but they were in this list. I just don't know which is which...and frankly, I don't care. I call them; "Really good".
The auto flowering sativa strains flower much earlier than normal using the Ruderalis Canadian strain to create the auto flowering types which grow in the North and those plants flower early due too the short growing season. Auto flowering should grow smaller also.
The sativa phenotype of the original Skunk, however it can't be found without extreme difficulty today without being crossed with something else. Anyone remember the Sativa dominant Cheese from back in the day? I'm talking the clones/cuts in the UK?
What about Mozambique heirloom? That's literally 100% sativa and it's still used. I have a Redheaded Stranger x Mozambique cross, and the MH is a very cool cultivar that has adapted to two seasons, a dry one and a wet one. Very versatile.
There are sativa strains crossed with the Ruderalis in Canada that flower much quicker and shorter that indoor growers can enjoy , search and read the info at online seed banks. Auto flowering is making indoor growing so easy it is amazing .
Top notch video old chap! I usually steer clear of sativas myself but you have intrigued me to hopefully one day try some of these mysterious strains 🪴
Auto flowering seeds can flower much quicker ! Auto flowering was discovered by crossing the northern Canadian Ruderalis cannabis that flowers in 7 - 8 weeks with cannabis sativa and other Indica hybrids . The Ruderalis traits make the plant flower very quickly so there are three types of cannabis sativa ruderalis and indica .
I love me some good sativa! A few of my favorites are Bruce Banner, Wine Gums (Pedro's Sweet Sativa), Sophie's Breath, DJ Short's Flo, Blue Dream, White Widow, Super Lemon Haze, Ghost Train Haze, Tangie and Ultra Sour. I haven't even heard of some of the strains in the video, so I still have a lot left to try, it seems!
Bruce ñ é sativa, é uma híbrida, sativa é manga rosa do nordeste do Brasil, Colômbia Gold original de Santa Marta, Santa Maria brasileira,sativa Lemon original Brasil e outras da África, Tailândia etc.. .
@@josephamberkarpouskie5018 I had to look it up, and I didn't know it but White Widow is actually a balanced hybrid. I always thought because of the characteristics of the buzz it was a sativa.
Bruce banner is a hybrid, OG Kush lineage. Not a sativa lmao. White widow, also not a sativa. Wine gums, not a sativa. SLH, still a hybrid. Ultra sour is a hybrid too. Ghost train haze is also crossed with an indica. Almost zero “sativa” strains are sativa and not some hybridized strain being touted as a sativa. It’s quite sad. That being said, all of those strains are a nice smoke!
Iv smoked a lot of cannabis in my time, but by far the haze dominated strains have to be one of my favroits good old grandaddy purple haze, or northern haze, but when it comes to cooking I'd always use duchie weed (seedy brown buds)
Personally I disagree with the list. Lived in and around Africa and all we ever had here was pure sativa landrace strains. Always had a bud of hybrids but they never came close to real sativa Landraces. Try the original malawi gold, zamal from reunion island, ugandan black or tanzanian magic all pure sativas. For me it's the Ethiopian highland, a pure sativa which is considered one of the most potent and flowers rather fast with a Christmas tree shape. But remember alot of these strains will not become as potent and taste if not grown where they came from originally.
In my teens when I started smoking, at 14 - I didn't care what strain it was, it got me stoned. When I was in my 20's, I was choosier and still didn't know what strain I was smoking because back then, you got it on the streets, not a dispensary. In my 30's and 40's, I had started to notice the difference in the head buzz as well as the body buzz and chose the strains that made me feel good, energetic and later found out those were sativa strains. In my 50's I dedicated myself to sativas with an occasional indica or hybrid. Now in my 60's, disabled and a medical marijuana patient, I prefer sativa strains or hybrids for the most part but do enjoy that late night indica to help me sleep. It's no longer a "habit" to smoke reefies... it has become a lifestyle after 46 years.
I am in the same boat. Take care.

I could have been backcrossed again into the haze
That's what I was thinking. Shouldn't it be a 50/50 indica/sativa hybrid?? 🤷🏻♂️

Any chance you live in nyc area? I was raised on uptown Haze and came back to Bergen last year after living in Humboldt since about 2014. I'd love to connect if you're not too busy to be open to the thought. I share the surname you chose for your flower, if that pushes the needle at all.
@@KingCrabSuited ahhhh sorry dude, I’m in sunny South Africa🇿🇦. Hopefully you’ll meet someone on your side.
what about power plant and pure power plant . that was brought to L.A in the late 80's from Africa its a pure sativa and its the one where the american agencies were fucking about with and made that G13 from u no the strain were u get no parania at all.. anyway the story goes they beefed it up and thats why you get pure power plant.. and thats when in the start of the 90's you started to get skunk that was power plant beefed up to make the pure power plant its a great sativa you should grow that im sure the seeds are cheap now plus ur better going old school seeds from the 90's cause all these new strains have been GMO'D and you just get mostly T.H.C but all the older strains you get full spectrum witch is well better for you i hate all these new cheesy names like marshmallow ice cream! and strawberry cookies its a scandel what all these suit n tie growers are doing to the market and to the strains.. real cannabis is for the people and now its all about money its out of order!! everyone should just grow their own and when they do they will make it illegal again when big co-op's cant make cash good luck im here in the UK and you dont get any sativa's growin here cause folks that grow just think about the cash and beastying the plants with chemicals disgrace.. iv not hade a good taste of a sativa in 12 years bro and i cant smoke indica makes me sleep to much and get anxiety.. i need a good sativa bro ... take my word for it about the old school sativa strains ur better growing them... and send sum over lol..
Love that Durban Poison.
I wonder if it has high levels of THCV, like most African landraces.
Durban has low THC..taste like 💩
@@deborahwhit118 Not sure what particular cut you had or how it was grown, but the Durban I speak of taste somewhat like dark licorice and gets a person SUPER ripped.
It’s sad that almost all sativas are crossbred into hybrids and still marketed as sativa
Its sad for you only because you look down in life. Grow up kid.
True
Now a days it’s either 1 2 or 3 no more “strain” it refers to bacteria and molds
Because of sativa dominance
So right, the yields from Panama Red in the seventies with bush grows cannot be compared to the delicate plants of today. Multi generations of indoor grows with seed selection just for indoor, has today's varieties with no adaptability to survive minor changes in the weather. Can't even get Panama Red regular seeds anymore.
I've preferred sativa since the early 80's and in the last few years I've come to fall in love with 'Anslinger'. AZ here and Anslinger's Demise by Shango is my favorite.
Anslinger Demise
This strain is neither indica or sativa, but a hybrid that provides a combination of effects. It can provide either of the effects based on how it is produced.
Just finished growing the Serious 6 and its a unique and interesting sativa, very cerebral and something that i can smoke pretty much all day. Perfect for depression, anxiety and ptsd. Giving off an energetic effect leaning into a body buzz! Definitely a new favourite and pretty easy to grow indoors plus only 8 week flowering time for a Sativa which is amazing!
Where can I get the seed
@@hansmor7690 SeriousSeeds mate
Not for a novice getting high for the first few times i hear.
Durban Poison . I’m smoking it right now . I’m also from South Africa so been smoking it my whole life when I still lived there . Now I’m in weed heaven . I live in Thailand . Going to have to seek out these strains!!
If you have never tried it before Tropicana Cherry is an AMAZING sativa. So purple its almost black and covered in crystals. Gives me the perfect daytime buzz to want to get up and get something done NOW!!!!
Had some Tropicana Cookies which was completely purple aswell. Rly good
Green Crack is one of my favorites...I always go for sativas regardless if the hype is real or not. Anything citrus always makes my mouth water.
Same
Thanks , I haven't smoked in 24 years until recently. Now, I am having a mid-life crisis
@@shangdi3162 Keep smoking.... it will get better...!
Grinspoon is the name of one of the first doctors to research weed, it is named after him.
Maui wowie,panama red,purple haze,and Acapulco gold I like the old school sativas but super lemon haze, blue dream, and strawberry cough are great as well
AG 35 years ago and now are not the same.
growing SLH STRCOUGH and CHOCOLOPE atm. hope they finish before winter comes here in MA.
Yes to all
Most growers plant shorter Indica fast flowering strains when some of us prefer Sativa and 10 - 12 foot Sativa plants that are a problem and long time flowering 10-16 weeks hurts growers yields per time involved .
Sativa is hard too get for me and growers ignore most Sativa for good reasons.
The value of a energetic day time creative high is very high on my wish list .
The Kali Mist strain is number 1 on my list in value because of the uplifting energetic effects that gets you going during the day.
Utopia Haze at night perhaps lol.
Another great video
Im growing Serious 6 atm i can't wait for it to be finished!
My understanding that I’ve gained from about a year and a half of growing is that the only real difference between sativa and Indica is morphological. Sativas can give you couch lock and Indicas can give an energetic, cerebral high. That has more to do with when it’s harvested. An early harvest will couch lock you, a harvest when all the trichomes are full and milky white will give you a more energetic head high and a later harvest will give a more mellow, chilled out high.
I thought it was the other way around with harvest time vs effect.
@@DanielM1224 no that later harvest, typically approx. 30% amber trichomes, will give you less thc and more cbn. The amber in the trichomes is the thc degrading into the cbn. The cbn is very calming and recommended for people who are prone to anxiety attacks or tend to “freak out”.
Early harvest is very much the opposite of that. Even I get anxiety from an early harvest bud when never before in my life otherwise 😂
That full, milky white with little to no amber gives the typically desired effect

@@DanielM1224 it is
you have it back to front... sativa is speedy, indica is zombie
Im loving my Bruce Banner for a good sativa buzz and is pretty easy to grow as well!
If you enjoy growing huge plants Malawi Gold is a fun one. The last time I grew it they reached 15' in the woods. Can't imagine how tall they'd get with full sun.
Supah Lemon Haze!!
Wish it were grown overseas Au Natural.. with only the reminiscing scent of the Afghani pines..
Flower power!
Here in Canada British Columbia, after 40 years of experience ha ha bring it on. Freedom reigns Supreme cheers. We have the best😊
Hey, thanks for the free plug! How did you guys know we concentrate on sativa dominant strains that can be grown outdoors anywhere in continental USA! Been growin since 80's and can tell you todays strains are weaker than pre millenial equatorial brick weed! Weed used to look shitty but had great high! now weed looks good and the high is shit! J?

I remember getting weed in sealed Dole Pineapple cans, back in the late 70's.
POT FARMER DANCE SONG $
I got out my pipe stuffed it with pot
You better believe it held a whole lot.
I whipped out a lighter thumbed up a flame
Sucked down that smoke which comforts my brain.
I tried alcohol smoked cigarettes
They did nothing but give me regrets.
My mom had arthritis could not walk around
I rolled her a joint she danced on the ground.
I thought I was losing my lovemaking knack
After I smoked some to me it came back.
Soon I decided prices were high
I searched for some ground I wouldn't have to buy.
I bargained for seeds from smokers all around
Got in my truck and drove out of town.
I walked through the woods where wild birds nest
Found me the meadow I thought was the best.
I dug up the ground sowed all my seeds
Said a small prayer for strong, healthy weeds.
I watered at night with a five-gallon pail
Mosquitoes went hungry for I wore a veil.
Seven months went by; I thought I would die
Till the Halloween moon was high in the sky.
At night I went out, in a camouflage suit
Used my corn knife to chop down the loot.
I hung it up to dry where it couldn’t be found.
Came back and got it, when it had turned brown.
I trimmed off the buds, stuffed them in bags
Called all my friends and passed out free drags.
In less than a week my crop was gone
I flew to St. Thomas with a love hungry blonde!!

I've had really good luck with Royal King Seeds. I've actually had 100% germ rate from them. Their Ice is a favorite of mine.
Great. Indicas good for medicine and depression. It's used alot because of height of plant, and fast flower for commercial purposes imo. SATIVA RULE
In my opinion the best haze's come from south east Asia brought back from Vietnam in the seventies strains like Chocolate Thai, Golden Temple Thai, Highland Thai which is the mainstay to strains like DJ shorts Blueberry, Temple Flo (Flo) , and many others it's gives these strains there spicey, earthy terpenes floral terps hence the name FLO.... As well as strains like Mekong Haze which are nearly impossible to get your hands on as well as strains like karala from India that are crazy on flowering times 22/26 weeks of flower😳 so they become extinct because of this long and hard process to flower these types hence the cross breeding in the 90s so some of these could be brought indoors and flowing was cut down with the crosses Afghani Purple, and several other middle eastern native 100% Indica strains to tame these sativa monsters 👍🏻
Last year I found a stash of old seeds we brought back from Vietnam & Thailand in the late 80's.I'll never forget the smoke..but alas, probably through bad storage (lost) none germinated☹️
Original haze was sativa bag seed found by the haze brothers in santa cruz. Nobody ever really smoked the original haze. The haze brothers gave seeds to Neville, Positronics and some other person who eventually founded a seed company. They crossed the original haze to NL5 and made the haze that everyone knows.
Nice to see one of my favorites with Chocolope so many don't know of but how is Jack Herer not even on the list?? Sour Jack is my personal favorite but Jack H has been my go to ever since I was in High School 20 years ago. . I've never heard of any of the other strains named and I'm all sativa all day.
Dr Lester grinspoon was a great human being and a pioneer of medical marijuana. Super lemon Haze is a great sativa so is Rollins
💯 I also grew this plant outdoor last year and documented on my channel
yea but the strain is rubbish... it's just a runt plant he inbred
Lambs Bread is my favorite Sativa.
"compassion is a virtue, but I don't have the time"😘🤷🏼♂️
Great Video as usual. love the channel!
Ah chocolope was the greatest sativa I had. Absolutely incredible smoke. Best top shelf of my life.
I found Chocolope by accident & let me tell ya, it was a happy accident. I never heard of Serious Six before...need to find it now.
Serious seeds Amsterdam
When was this list made in the 70s? A sativa list without Sour D, Super Silver Haze or Thai? I would put Sour D on top and then SSH even though SSH is pound for pound most cup winning sativa for a couple years. Sir, your list is subpar at the very best.
I was given some bag seeds around 2006 that a friend said was called "wonderberry". I'm not sure that's what it was though and I can't really find any such strain name online. It had the biggest football shaped top colas for a 4 ft. plant I had ever grown. It was a very, very narrow-leafed sativa strain and the buds, although massive in girth were so very light and whispy compared to any others I had grown it was unreal, very powerful. It wasn't a fruity or gassy tasting variety but still nice, and it was a favorite of mine and my friends. Once dried the buds were huge but light as air. We joked about how when you smoked it you would forget what you came into the room for. I had to stop my indoor grow here in Ohio when I moved and I lost the strain but would love to find it again or something similar. Can any growers recommend any strains that sound like that?
We grew Silver Haze and they were awesome 😎
All My Sativa Lovers Here
Not yet, but hopefully they’ll be arriving soon!
Best weed i had was 20 years ago. Purple with seeds and sticky. Never had a buzz like that since smoking that mystery weed from some bikers down the street in saskatoon. My cuz lived in a corner basement suite and we stayed there for a week and that was when i was the most highest in my life. I wish i didnt lose the full pill bottle of seeds. Damn . What a loss
PPD
why there’s no mention of the Maui Waui?
The narrator is wrong. It does not take 14 week to START flower. The flower TIME is 14 weeks. It depends on the light cycle. He got it wrong all the time.
The whole video is littered with mistakes
True. And these a$$ clowns call themselves experts. Lol. 130k followers. No wonder this hobby is loaded with misinformation
Dr. Grinspoon, wrote the book on medical marijuana. The plant buds are shaped more like berries buds and leaves.
Love your videos, Keep them coming.
Im so glad u covered Neville's haze
So much wrong info. Where do you get it? e.g. Neville’s Haze is 75/25 not 90% sativa.
Tropical banana has been one favorite for me for years. Nice Sativa dom , great buzz and that smell of banana is killer...Stay Frosty...
To me, it seems like everyone is just imagining these flavor and effect differences...I mean, I notice differences, but not so clearly defined. Nothing tastes like people say it does to me, they all taste like cannabis to me....and the effect is just strong or weak.....to me. That being said, I managed to grow a big, beautiful crop this year! I lost track of the strain tags, but they were in this list. I just don't know which is which...and frankly, I don't care. I call them; "Really good".
NF1 was an absolute psychedelic experience, my number 1 hands down.
What is NF1 ?
wow, I would think a sativa would have more mold and mildew resistance being from tropical rain forest! I think you guys might have gotten that wrong
Yeah because sativa have smaller and less dence flowers so any air at all prevents mold .
serious 6 is easy to grow, even for beginners. The only prob is the hermie issue and sometimes single phenos with less THC
Kilimanjaro
Arusha
Shashamane
The east African sativas are highly underated....
Cinderella 99 for the Win. Easy to grow, quick to hit, leaves you wondering which bus hit you . . . Always works for me!
I enjoyed the video immensely. Thank you. Blessings in Love 💜
Acapulco Gold is no slouch either
Cinderella 99
Awesome plant! Grew 2 last year! Different kind of smell tho.
The auto flowering sativa strains flower much earlier than normal using the Ruderalis Canadian strain to create the auto flowering types which grow in the North and those plants flower early due too the short growing season.
Auto flowering should grow smaller also.
Oh Dude - The original Blue Dream and XJ-13, when you could get them straight out of the bag, were without equal. Straight-up Sativas.
The sativa phenotype of the original Skunk, however it can't be found without extreme difficulty today without being crossed with something else.
Anyone remember the Sativa dominant Cheese from back in the day? I'm talking the clones/cuts in the UK?
South African Kwazulu 100% sativa from world of seeds. one of my favorites
A great video i wish I know this but now I do keep up the great work,
It's Durban Poison.... grew up smoking it. I guess they took Poison out the name as it was harder to sell🤣
I’ve experienced CHOCOLOPE that’s pretty good , STRAWBERRY COUGH THO THATS ONE I WANNA TRY AGAIN, haven’t had that in a long time only had once tbh
What about Mozambique heirloom? That's literally 100% sativa and it's still used. I have a Redheaded Stranger x Mozambique cross, and the MH is a very cool cultivar that has adapted to two seasons, a dry one and a wet one. Very versatile.
Sativa is a large growing out door strain.
There are sativa strains crossed with the Ruderalis in Canada that flower much quicker and shorter that indoor growers can enjoy , search and read the info at online seed banks.
Auto flowering is making indoor growing so easy it is amazing .
Love me some Durban, it is also the name of the street I grew up on
You haven't had a true Sativa if you haven't tried Kalamata Red
Top notch video old chap! I usually steer clear of sativas myself but you have intrigued me to hopefully one day try some of these mysterious strains 🪴
You will like sativas much more in the day time .
Indicas are for night only.
Hawaiian snow, the best and long lasting high. Hard to find the seeds and even harder to grow, flowering time 14 to 15 weeks
Nice video
Thinking getting some of those soon . Thank you 😊
Ref: Chocolope. It can't possibly be even Sativa Dominant if it finishes in 7-8 weeks.
Auto flowering seeds can flower much quicker !
Auto flowering was discovered by crossing the northern Canadian Ruderalis cannabis that flowers in 7 - 8 weeks with cannabis sativa and other Indica hybrids .
The Ruderalis traits make the plant flower very quickly so there are three types of cannabis sativa ruderalis and indica .
I love me some good sativa! A few of my favorites are Bruce Banner, Wine Gums (Pedro's Sweet Sativa), Sophie's Breath, DJ Short's Flo, Blue Dream, White Widow, Super Lemon Haze, Ghost Train Haze, Tangie and Ultra Sour. I haven't even heard of some of the strains in the video, so I still have a lot left to try, it seems!
White Widow is Indica
Bruce ñ é sativa, é uma híbrida, sativa é manga rosa do nordeste do Brasil, Colômbia Gold original de Santa Marta, Santa Maria brasileira,sativa Lemon original Brasil e outras da África, Tailândia etc.. .
I just harvested a bruce banner very tasty
@@josephamberkarpouskie5018 I had to look it up, and I didn't know it but White Widow is actually a balanced hybrid. I always thought because of the characteristics of the buzz it was a sativa.
Bruce banner is a hybrid, OG Kush lineage. Not a sativa lmao. White widow, also not a sativa. Wine gums, not a sativa. SLH, still a hybrid. Ultra sour is a hybrid too. Ghost train haze is also crossed with an indica. Almost zero “sativa” strains are sativa and not some hybridized strain being touted as a sativa. It’s quite sad. That being said, all of those strains are a nice smoke!
I have nevilles haze from the master himself. Got it from him before they put him in jail. He was a good dude r.i.p Neville
great strain but takes forever to flower... I've had it run 26 weeks and still not finished outdoors
@@bushmanphotos yep it took a long to flower.
wowwww the paradise bit cracked me up. sad though almost 100 people died in that.
Blessings 🙏...1strain I'm surprised I didn't see in this top ten,..is original Cambodian... outdoors 30% THC natural on its own🌿👍😎🙏
I always thought they don't grow pure sativas no more... in Canada I've been told the max is 70% sativa dominant
Dr grinspoon is pure sativa
Indica / sativa ratios are bs
Everything is hybrid now
I really dig your clips
Utopia Haze makes me want to roll one up good stuff
Had Utopia haze once, it was awesome. Very minty indeed
Now they have "Resin Infused" Sativa THC 42%. WOW!!!!
BRUH AS SOMEONE WHO LOST MY HOUSE IN PARADISE CA WHEN I WAS 17 THIS HAD ME ROLLING MAN 😂💀
I ordered chocolope seeds this year and i can't wait until next season to grow it
Bummer
Try
Critical Neville haze 2.0
Northern lights #5 x haze
GOLOSA.... indica
I have heard happy smokers talk well of chocolope as one of the best highs.
Malawi Gold is also an excellent Sativa!
Don't we have some sort of cannabis DNA database by now that we can check what the 'unknown' lineage strains really are?
Yes
Iv smoked a lot of cannabis in my time, but by far the haze dominated strains have to be one of my favroits good old grandaddy purple haze, or northern haze, but when it comes to cooking I'd always use duchie weed (seedy brown buds)
Hi school days was full of gold ,red Colombian as well as some Mexican which was good to test before buying. When a quarter ounce was $5.
Personally I disagree with the list. Lived in and around Africa and all we ever had here was pure sativa landrace strains. Always had a bud of hybrids but they never came close to real sativa Landraces. Try the original malawi gold, zamal from reunion island, ugandan black or tanzanian magic all pure sativas. For me it's the Ethiopian highland, a pure sativa which is considered one of the most potent and flowers rather fast with a Christmas tree shape. But remember alot of these strains will not become as potent and taste if not grown where they came from originally.
