South African Kwazulu Regular 10 seeds

Genetics & Origin of South African Kwazulu

South African Kwazulu comes from the area north of the Drakensberg mountains in South Africa. According to World of Seeds, the strain grew wild there for generations and was cultivated by the Zulu. Legend has it that Zulu warriors used it for mental preparation in times of war, for instance during the resistance against the British invaders in 1879. Genetically, it is a landrace with 100% Sativa, adapted to extreme conditions. The breeder gives 15 to 20% THC; a CBD value is not stated. The strain description lists a placing at the VIII Copa de los Cultivadores Montañeses 2010 but does not state the rank. The seeds are regular and photoperiod – they produce male and female plants, which makes them interesting for preservation and breeding. In the shop the strain is also available as South African Kwazulu without the suffix "Regular".

Who Is South African Kwazulu For?

South African Kwazulu is a robust Sativa from South Africa. It suits:

• Beginners looking for a resilient Sativa with a short flowering time
• Open-ground gardeners in Central Europe and other less than ideal climate zones
• Collectors of landraces and pure Sativa lines with a history
• Hobby breeders who want to select and cross with regular seeds
• Consumers who appreciate an activating effect for the daytime

It is less suitable if you mainly want to relax in the evening – the effect is described as powerful and stimulating. You can find more pure Sativas under 100% Sativa.

Growing South African Kwazulu: Indoor & Outdoor

Indoor Growing

For a pure Sativa, South African Kwazulu finishes flowering unusually early: World of Seeds states 55 to 65 days after the switch to 12/12. The yield is up to 350 g/m². Because of the short flowering time, the breeder considers the strain well suited to rooms with limited height too; it does not give a plant height in centimetres. The smell is described as pleasantly restrained. With regular seeds, it is best to germinate a few more seeds, determine the sex in pre-flowering and take out male plants if you do not want to produce seeds. If you are growing for the first time, you will find the basics under tips for beginners in the Growpedia.

Outdoor Growing

Outdoors, the strain is ready for harvest in mid-October and, according to the breeder, yields 450 to 500 g per plant. Its strength is its resilience: it is considered extremely insensitive to mould and pests and, according to World of Seeds, can also be cultivated successfully in more difficult climate zones such as Central Europe. A sunny spot helps to reach ripeness reliably by mid-October. Only grow where it is legal to do so.

Effect, Aroma & Flavour of South African Kwazulu

The scent of South African Kwazulu is sweet and fruity, the flavour clear and fruity with a mild, floral note. World of Seeds emphasises that, despite its lively terpene profile, the strain smells pleasantly restrained; the breeder does not name individual terpenes. The effect is described as powerful, energetic, activating and very long-lasting – by its account, suitable for physical activity or productive days. This makes it a strain for the daytime. According to the breeder, the THC content is 15 to 20%. If you are sensitive to stimulating Sativas, you should start low: how intense the effect is depends on dose and individual tolerance.
