Have you heard the one about the German who smokes weed? They're allowed to carry up to 25 grams and smoke it recreationally. It's a terrible joke, but the truth is not always funny. The Germans have gone legal and can grow up to three cannabis plants; many people ask how long they've been growing. The truth is years. There is a solid growing community in Germany which has more than played its part in the recent legalisation. So, what have they been growing all these years? Which ones do they like the best? Or keep coming back for? Here are five cannabis strains loved by Germans.
Wappa - Paradise Seeds
First up on the German chopping block is Wappa by Paradise Seeds. The German canna scene closely connects with Dutch breeders like Paradise and has been one of their key markets since the early days. Strains like Sensi Star, Dutch Kush, and Durga Mata helped establish Paradise Seeds in Germany, and later strains like L.A. Amnesia helped cement the legacy, but Wappa is the one they keep coming back for. This top-performing indica is ready 7-8 weeks after flowering and contains a wapping 20% T.H.C.
Super Skunk - Sensi Seeds
The only fool on April 1 this year in Germany was the one who thought the Germans were about to grow for the first time. They've been at it for decades in secret. Since the inception of this mostly indica, the Germans have lapped up Super Skunk cannabis seeds by the bucket load. When your cannabis grow is illegal, you have no time to waste, so countless German growers turned to Super Skunk because of its speed and ease of growth. The mostly indica hybrid is ready for harvest 7-8 weeks after flowering starts and will respond well to all types of training.
Future#1 - Anesia Seeds
Over the years, hybrids have gotten stronger, as has the German desire to grow new hybrids. One of the most popular strains in Germany in recent times is Future#1 by Anesia Seeds. This super-potent hybrid has tested at >30% and is one of the most potent strains on the market. But it's not all brute force with this bad boy. The aroma is out of this world, and now German growers don't have to worry about letting it out of the tent; this strain will continue to be a winner. There's a lot of citrus and pineapple around, matched by potent notes of mango that have had the Germans shouting "Jah" for Future#1.
Cookies Gelato - Royal Queen Seeds
Cookie strains have taken over the world in the last ten years, and Germany is no exception. They have grown a shed load of Cookies Gelato by R.Q.S. German growers will attest that this cookie hybrid performs well indoors with up to 600 grams per m2 and is ideal for L.S.T. It will be ready 8 - 9 weeks after flowering and will contain >20% T.H.C.
Blueberry - Dutch Passion
The Germans love the classics. And what better classic cannabis strain than Blueberry to prove it? Blueberry by Dutch Passion has been winning German hearts for decades. To this day, Germans grow rooms peng with super fruity aromas; now, they don't need to conceal it. It may be time to try this classic outdoors. Blueberry does well indoors and out; now there's no reason to say nein to outdoor growing. You should check the weather, though.
