Bob Marley
Also known as: Bob Marley OG
Bob Marley Strain Overview
Bob Marley is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain named after the legendary Jamaican reggae artist and cannabis culture icon. Created by the Dutch breeder Goldenseed, this strain pays homage to Bob Marley's musical legacy and Jamaica's rich cannabis tradition. The strain is predominantly sativa with over 70% sativa dominance, drawing inspiration from Jamaican landrace genetics including influences from Lamb's Bread, a strain reportedly favored by Bob Marley himself.
The Bob Marley strain produces tall plants with leggy branches and small but highly potent buds. When properly cultivated, particularly in warm outdoor climates, this strain can deliver impressive yields while maintaining its characteristic uplifting sativa effects. The buds are typically compact and dense with a frosty layer of trichomes, displaying dark green coloration with purple hues throughout and orange pistils. The strain has gained recognition among cannabis enthusiasts for its connection to both musical history and Jamaica's traditional cannabis culture.
