About Hash Plant

Hash Plant is the result of crossing Northern Lights with an Afghani variety selected for extreme resin production. The strain is short, stocky, and extremely resinous — the entire plant becomes coated in glistening trichomes. Hash Plant's aroma is deeply earthy and hashy with sandalwood and spice notes, reminiscent of pressed bubble hash. Its effects are powerfully sedative and physically relaxing, making it a strain for evening use. Hash Plant was a staple of the Amsterdam coffeeshop scene of the 1990s and remains a benchmark indica for resin production.

The Story & Lineage Origin

Hash Plant was developed the late 1980s and was instrumental in the rise of Dutch hashish culture. It was one of the first strains specifically bred for resin production rather than flower quality.

Its high resin content made it ideal for sieving and creating bubble hash. Sensi Seeds commercialized Hash Plant in their catalogue.
