Lebanese
- Thread starter OnceUpon
- Start date
I'm wondering this as well. It's supposed to be sativa. Perhaps its from the real seed company lebanese?
As far as Leb goes,
I'm at roughly 38N & grew a Leb vatiety that was given to me by a friend of a friend. Supposed to be landrace from the Bekka Valley. If what I was told is true & ACEs Lebs are from the same or similar region, which I suspect it more than likely is, these seeds/plants will finish between the beginning & end of September. Further North, the daylength may push harvest dates out since they will begin flowering a bit later outdoors.

Thanks for the info, I would add that Lebanese landraces are especially good for outdoor, tough, early with some very sweet berry/piney phenotypes, even in poor soil with low nutrients.
Also they tend to have a very balanced cannabinoid profile, the effect being up yet relaxing, dissapears without a trace allowing one to smoke all day without fatigue.
A landrace that needs preservation.
I bet growers will love to get some fairly stable pure Lebanese seeds!
Are you seeing any auto-flowering traits in the Leb line?
Haven't grown any Lebs, nor Morocs yet, but i have read that Moroccans can at least semi-auto flower indoors
..and the Leb hash i smoked in Amsterdam was clearly related to Moroccan plants.
I have grown few pure Nepalese and some plants started semi-blooming in 18/6 light cycle after maturing in veg. And some of these Baglungs reminded me of some Leb and Moroc plant pics i've seen.

Im glad to see more red Leb being offered in Amsterdam,
one of my favourites due to the nice effects.
Its not a smoke for the max Thc % crowd, I beleive Leb hash has a fair amount of CBD. the taste can be a bit dry/chalky but has been generally pleasant.
As for Moroccan strains there is the purple maroc from female seeds which gets good reviews, and the Maroc Inspiration from bluehemp is still around. The latter looks like one of the old maroc sativas you can find pics of in one RC Clarkes older books.
The structure of maroc buds (airy spears for the most part) are perfect for dry sift, and very mold resistant.
Yea, for the taste, i like Moroc kif-hash better than the Leb i tried.
As you said it was a bit bland/chalky. Moroccan kif is usually sweeter, more floral-incencey-minty. The leb was clearly related to Morocs , the aroma only "darker" and more bland. The effect was a bit stonier too. I think this was Red Lebanese i tried.
This only Leb hash i have tried so far was closer to this Turkish hash i sampled abit, which was even darker tasting than the Leb, and the effect was also more stoned.
So my Leb and Turkish hash eperiences is very limited, but you seem to say the same thing about Leb hash i was thinking.
But hashish, ofcource, is made with large number of different pheno/chemo types, so growing and selecting Lebanese marijuana-plants is abit different ballgame.
Interesting to see how this ACE Leb project turns out.

Your description is spot on, I too prefer the taste of a dark maroc (caramello I think).
I hear most of the Moroccan farmers are now growing Dutch hybrids, yet I cant imagine a plant more suited to the mountain climate or as high yeilding (in terms of dry sift resin).
Lets hope the Lebanese keep growing the original strain which many people love, no "leba-cheese" please
Well, some people claim "Red" is hash with henna mixed into it to give it a red color, but to me it's "late harvest hash", made with amber trichomes. While Yellow Leb is made with early harvested plant, clear trichomes
