An authentic multipurpose Himalayan cannabis landrace cultivated for fibre, seed, and hand-rubbed charas – similar to strains offered as Johaar and Kumaoni.

Himalayan multipurpose landraces have high levels of bast fibre and large, nutritious seeds. This is because of their long history of use for producing textiles and cordage, as well as the crucial importance of cannabis seeds as a source of protein and fats in the challenging environment of the Himalaya.
