About Lebanese
Lebanese cannabis is traditionally grown in the Bekaa Valley, a fertile region in eastern Lebanon. The plants are a unique intermediate type — not fully indica like their Afghan neighbors, nor fully sativa like tropical varieties. Lebanese cannabis has been selected for centuries primarily for hashish production. Lebanese Blonde hash (the blonde of the color grade) is world-famous for its smooth, floral character and mild, social high. The plants have adapted to the Mediterranean climate with moderate heights and relatively fast flowering.
