Afro Jam
Afro Jam
Also known as: Afro Jam Haze
Overview
Afro Jam is a predominantly sativa cannabis strain developed by Top Dawg Seeds in the early 2020s. The strain emerged during a renewed interest in classic sativa dominance combined with modern genetics, reflecting Top Dawg Seeds' commitment to quality and consistency in advanced cannabis breeding. With genetic lineage tracing back to Jamaican Highlander and African Haze, Afro Jam represents approximately 75% sativa characteristics and incorporates ancestral landrace genetics with modern breeding techniques.
The strain is characterized by vibrant, frosty buds and a distinctive sweet, earthy aroma that sets it apart from other varieties. Afro Jam's flavor profile is notably complex, delivering sweet fruitiness upon inhalation that transitions to a mellow, tangy finish with subtle spice notes. Users often describe an aftertaste reminiscent of freshly made fruit preserves. Scientific analysis has identified flavor compounds that may register at levels up to 0.5% of the total plant profile, with terpenes such as limonene contributing citrusy notes and myrcene providing musky, earthy hints.

Possible Negative Effects
Growing Information
Afro Jam is not recommended for beginner growers due to its pure sativa characteristics and challenging growth patterns. The strain requires experienced cultivation skills to manage height control, as plants can grow very tall typical of pure sativa genetics. It has a long flowering time and behaves like a traditional pure sativa from start to finish. The strain can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, though indoor growers need to be particularly careful with height management. Clones can be kept under control more easily than plants grown from seed.
