Dakshinkali
Also known as: Nepalese Mountain Ganja
Dakshinkali Strain Overview
Dakshinkali is a rare Himalayan 'Mountain Ganja' landrace strain collected by The Real Seed Company from Nepal's mountainous regions south of Kathmandu. This sativa-dominant domesticate represents a specialized form of Nepalese cannabis cultivated specifically for ganja production and garda charas (dry-sieved resin) in the alpine areas of Central and Mid-West Nepal. The strain originates from populations that may have been influenced by large-scale ganja cultivation introduced to lowland Nepal by Indian groups in the late 1930s, following the collapse of the Trans-Himalayan charas trade. This potent Nepali domesticate differs from both the multipurpose Himalayan seed-fiber-charas plants of higher alpine areas and the pure tropical ganja varieties found in Nepal's southern Terai region. The plants exhibit characteristics typical of mountain ganja types, with soaring psychoactive effects, hardy constitution, and tolerance to humidity and cold temperatures typical of high-altitude cultivation.
