Ace Seeds' Lebanese strain is an original, pure sativa genetic from Lebanon. It is world-famous for the hashish that can be obtained from it: the “red Lebanese”. There is a persistent rumor that the hashish from Lebanon is reddish, but the attribution “red Lebanese” refers to the soil in which the plants are grown. This has a reddish, copper-colored puncture, which is how the name came about. In addition, the hashish is also called “Lebanese Gold” or “blond hashish”. This is due to the fine texture, smooth surface and light color of the hashish from this region. The variety is wonderfully suited for growing in any climate and, in addition to THC, naturally has a high CBD level.
The strain is only available as a regular seed and is particularly suitable for outdoor growing, as it has a very strong flowering impulse and is ready to flower by the end of September. When growing indoors, it is recommended to provide 20 hours of light per day during the short growing phase. The flowering stage lasts between 9 and 11 weeks and outdoors, it can be harvested at the end of September, making this variety well suited for gardening in cooler regions with shorter summers, such as Germany, or at altitudes with early frosts. The indoor yield ranges from 380 to 450 g per m2, with an average size of 1 m. Outdoors, each plant can yield 350 g. The plants can grow up to 1.8 meters here, but can also be kept more compact with appropriate training.
The effect of Lebanese is subtle, but no less stimulating for it. A pure sativa high meets the subliminally calming effect of CBD. THC levels can reach up to 8 percent, but some phenotypes have lower levels. In addition, Lebanese contains between 6 and 16 percent CBD. The creativity-boosting effect is perceived as very pleasant by many users, and it is of moderate duration and impact.
This strain tastes distinctly like hash, even in flower form. The sweet, woody aroma also contains fruity notes of mango and citrus fruits. The sweet flavor is counteracted by a tart accent. The terpene profile is mainly composed of terpinolene and alpha-pinene, with lower concentrations of beta-pinene and limonene.
