Congo Pointe Noire
Also known as: Congo Point Noire
Congo Pointe Noire Strain Overview
Congo Pointe Noire is a 100% pure sativa strain that is a native landrace in the Congo regions of Africa. The strain originates specifically from the Bouenza district in the Republic of Congo, at 4°N latitude and 168 meters above sea level. The city of Pointe Noire is located on the Atlantic coast of Southwest Africa where the Congo River terminates in the ocean. Seeds are sourced directly from local growers who maintain traditional cultivation methods, with no human intervention in terms of fertilizers, allowing plants to grow wild in the tropical climate without being watered. This landrace exhibits long and fluffy narrow pepper-shaped bright neon green nugs with vivid orange hairs and a coating of frosty tiny bright white crystal trichomes. Plants display light brown-red colored stems with very straight plain shape leaves, forming large and narrow airy buds. The strain has been preserved and distributed by multiple seed companies including The Landrace Team and Tropical Seeds Company, maintaining its authentic African genetics.
