Top 10 Sativa seeds

The ten best Sativa cannabis seeds picked by the knowledgeable Azarius staff.

What is cannabis sativa?

Cannabis sativa is one of the main cannabis species. The origins of the plant lie in the tropics. As the sun rises and sets fast around the equator and the number of sun-hours is pretty constant, about 12 a day, the plants want to catch as much sun as possible. Cannabis sativa as a result grows and blossoms at the same time.

What else can you expect from these elite sativa seeds? Sativa plants possess their own characteristics. They have a typical way of flowering, a certain appearance and effect. Expect a high THC-ratio, a sweet taste and a slightly psychedelic effect from these seeds, hand-picked by the Azarius staff.

Traditionally jungle plants have to fight for their light. This explains why sativa can grow as tall as a tree, reaching an average of 2 to 3 metres. This, of course, makes her an ideal plant to grow outdoors. Her characteristic long, thin leaves, are able to catch a lot of sun rays. These widespread leaves make sativa easier to harvest than the indica. You will notice that the buds are elongated, grand but airy.

The growing period typically takes between 60 and 90 days. Obviously, there are many factors which can influence a yield but the harvest per weight tends to be lower compared to indica.

Good news for those who like a bit of discretion: during cultivation and drying process the plant doesn’t smell as strongly as indica. Sativa weed has a sweet taste and generally has more flavour than its counterpart.

Let's not forget the effect. The effect tends to be geared towards the mind and can be described as slightly psychedelic. She can energize and stimulate creativity. The feeling of happy bliss makes it easy to use at social occasions.
