Lavender (Soma)

Lavender brings together weed varieties from all over the world. Strains with histories that traverse Afghanistan, Hawaii, Korea, the USA and Europe are all melded together in this 3-way cross. An exotic looking strain, Lavender develops the darkest purple coloration you can imagine. The color is so intense, so deeply saturated with color, that the leaves nearly turn to black at the ends.

The extra dense buds give off a sensually spicy smell akin to Afghani hash. The high calyx to leaf ratio and the legginess of this plant make for simplified manicuring. While not as tall as the Haze strains, Lavender can shoot to tall heights when allowed an extended vegetation period before being placed into the flowering phase. If grown in a Sea Of Green, Soma recommends shortening the veg cycle in order to control the height.

This strain will also do well as a multi-branched plant. Outdoors this variety can thrive in most temperate zones. However, optimal would be arid climates, known for their rich agricultural promise.

Lavender has a flavor that is similar to Afghani hash, producing a captivating high that circulates through every chakra. Lavender will leave you feeling relaxed and mellow, possibly to the point of falling asleep.
