La Jefa
La Jefa
Also known as: The Boss
Overview
La Jefa, meaning 'The Boss' in Spanish, is a notable 50/50 hybrid strain created by Super Strains that unites Mexican sativa and Afghan indica genetics from opposite sides of the globe. This strain represents a remarkable fusion of two ancient cannabis lineages separated by 15,000 kilometers and a Pacific ocean, which would have never naturally met without human intervention. Despite its balanced genetic composition, La Jefa exhibits a growth structure reminiscent of indica plants, featuring compact, Christmas tree-like architecture with wide leaves, numerous lateral branches, and dense bud production. The strain demonstrates excellent commercial growing potential, reaching heights of 150-180 cm indoors while producing exceptional yields through its abundant, resinous colas that develop along both central stems and side branches. La Jefa is particularly favored by commercial cultivators for its reliable productivity and robust characteristics.
The strain's cannabinoid profile delivers a distinctive experience that users describe as 'clearly awake yet pleasantly stoned' or 'baked but wide awake.' This unique effect profile begins with an immediate cerebral and euphoric rush that gradually transitions into relaxing body effects, making it suitable for daytime use while maintaining alertness and productivity. The aromatic profile is dominated by tropical pineapple scents complemented by refreshing eucalyptus undertones, creating a memorable sensory experience whether consumed through smoking or vaping. La Jefa's balanced effects and exceptional flavor profile have made it popular among both recreational users seeking social experiences and cultivators requiring dependable, high-yielding varieties.

Growing Information
La Jefa is an excellent choice for both beginner and intermediate growers, requiring minimal special care while delivering exceptional results. Indoor cultivation achieves 500-650g/m² yields with flowering times of 9-10 weeks (65-70 days). The strain reaches 150-180cm in height indoors and exhibits typical indica structure despite balanced genetics. Plants develop numerous lateral branches with dense, resinous buds requiring support due to their weight. Humidity should be maintained between 40-70% for optimal results. Outdoor cultivation is highly successful, with plants ready for harvest in early October and similar per-plant yields. The strain demonstrates excellent pest resistance but shows some sensitivity to fungal issues in high humidity environments due to its compact structure. La Jefa is particularly suitable for SoG (Sea of Green) and ScrOG (Screen of Green) cultivation methods and tolerates both nutrient excess and deficiency while remaining resistant to low temperatures.
