Afghan Daman Selection #8 Standard

Daman Village populations without a doubt, were one of the most diverse looking crop ILE team ran into in Afghanistan. Even a small patch shows great phenotypic variation amongst the individuals, wherein plants could be seen expressing features from both end of the spectrum, be it the overall structure, leaf broadness, bud structure, smells etc...

This was our final selection from Daman Village, Kandahar. Just when we thought we have seen it all, we found this one. This is both tall and bushy, starting right from the bottom of the stalk giving it a round look, yet having a clear apical dominance that sticks out like a mosque dome.

This is one of most impressive structures one could find here, and all of that with extremely narrow leaflets, in flush purple color. The bud growth on this female is above average, which is evenly covered in a thick layer of trichomes. This plant had all its leaves, branches and buds intact all the way to the harvest (Early November).

This beast features a strong yet complex smell, that includes aromas of fresh earth, nuts, diesel and spices. An absolute treat of a profile, with the smells moving in all different tangents, but mostly influenced by the strong notes of diesel.
