Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Zamal crossed with Malawi and Thai landraces, a bushy Sativa whose potency has no real parallel in recent breeding. Mango, floral and citrus on the nose, with a clear, euphoric, sometimes utterly psychedelic high — focused and creative throughout. Seventeen to twenty-seven per cent THC, best suited to high light indoors or a warm coastal autumn out.

Where it comes from

Ace Seeds crossed Zamal — the landrace of Réunion Island — with Malawi and Thai lines to build this, a pure 100% sativa. That is equatorial heritage on every side: the African and Southeast Asian sativas lending reach, refinement and a potency the record claims has no real parallel in recent sativa breeding. It is a bushy, vigorous plant carrying centuries of tropical selection in it, and it asks to be grown accordingly — with heat, light and patience.

Nose & flavour

Mango leads, ripe and tropical, with floral notes lifting behind it and citrus — orange especially — sharpening the finish. The record adds a sweet carrot note and a resinous edge beneath. It is a vivid, exotic nose, the fruit front and centre and the flowers giving it a perfumed lift. A refined and layered aromatic profile, exactly what the equatorial sativa heritage would lead you to expect, and entirely its own.

The high

Clear, euphoric and stimulating, tipping sometimes into the utterly psychedelic — focused and creative throughout, an extreme and refined effect of premium quality. This is a heady, cerebral experience of real intensity, the sort to approach as you would a staircase in the dark rather than take lightly. Best met with the day free and the mind ready to travel. THC runs 17 to 27%, and at the top of that range it earns every word of caution.

Growing it

A feminized, extremely bushy pure sativa, slow to finish — flowering runs 77 to 98 days, eleven to fourteen weeks, so patience is the price of admission. It suits indoors with high light intensity for the best results, and outdoors at latitudes up to 43 degrees in a coastal climate with a warm autumn, ripening as far as 38 degrees in the mountains or a continental climate. No height or yield figure is logged, so I will not state one; treat it as a demanding equatorial sativa. THC 17 to 27%.
