Dagga Afghan is a modern hybrid cannabis strain derived from the parent Malva Silvestre. Developed for high-performance cultivation, this strain succeeds in both indoor and outdoor environments, requiring a flowering period of approximately 65 days. Growers generally observe moderate cultivation difficulty, which is balanced by the potential for high yields. The strain has served as a primary genetic foundation for several notable offspring, including Citrus Fruit and Santa Elena.

The terpene profile of Dagga Afghan is defined by a primary dominance of myrcene, followed by secondary caryophyllene and tertiary limonene. This chemical composition dictates the sensory experience, grounding the aromatic profile in the earthy qualities of myrcene while incorporating the spicy undertones of caryophyllene and the sharp, citric notes imparted by limonene.

As a THC-dominant cultivar, Dagga Afghan consistently delivers effects characterized as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These therapeutic properties make the strain a suitable candidate for individuals seeking assistance with stress, pain, or sleep management. Its genetic legacy remains active through its documented influence on contemporary breeding projects, cementing its utility as a foundational hybrid in the modern market.
