The word “landrace” comes from the Danish language and means “origin.” So as you may have already guessed, landrace marijuana strains represent the oldest known cannabis strains that naturally grow. Landrace strains are always a straight Sativa or straight Indica.
Here are a few landraces you can try in the Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Program:
Acapulco Gold is a sativa landrace that originates from Acapulco, Mexico. This strain is known to be energizing and motivating featuring flavors of coffee and wood.
Durban is a sativa landrace that originates from Durban, South Africa. Durban tastes spicy and herbal and can feel energizing and focused.
Afghani has roots that trace back to the mountains along the Pakistani-Afghani border. Afghani, or sometimes called Afghan Kush, can be a good option for sleep, pain, and anxiety.
Lamb's Bread, or sometimes called Lamb's Breath, is a sativa that originates from Jamaica. This strain is Bob Marley's favorite for a reason. It is known to be energizing and creative featuring flavors of spices and wood.
Pakistani Chitral Kush is an Indica from Kind Tree that grows in Chitral, Pakistan. PCK is known to produce sleep, ease anxiety, and relieve pain. This strain tastes earthy, and herbal, with a hint of berry.

African Thai - Prime Wellness

Although very similar, many landraces have evolved over the years through selective breeding. Most landraces have a much higher THC content than they would have a few decades ago.
