How to grow Mandala #1
Seb's take
South African Sativa, Purple Indica and Indian Sativa combine in a plant bred, unusually, for northern outdoor climates rather than the tropics. Apple, mint, berry and citrus with a spiced herbal edge on the nose; the high is creative, energetic and uplifted throughout. Vigorous and resinous regardless of the weather she's given.
