Hemp cuttings – Baglung Nepalese (purple queen)

Baglung Nepalese is a pure, mostly Sativa landrace strain that is deeply rooted in traditional Nepalese cannabis culture. Originally from the Baglung region in the Himalayas, these genetics have adapted over generations to the difficult climatic conditions of this remote mountain region. Its hardiness and robustness make it an excellent choice for outdoor cultivation, especially in temperate climates such as Germany.

Since the 1980s, the Baglung Nepalese has been successfully adapted to the Swiss climate by Blue Hemp. In recent years, thanks to careful selection, it has also adapted to more northerly latitudes. The selected plant shows exceptional vitality, grows up to 4 meters high when planted early and develops beautiful, colourful flowers ranging from pink to deep purple. This coloration is independent of the temperature and gives the plant an unmistakable appearance.

Breeding potential:
As a purebred landrace variety, Baglung Nepalese is a valuable breeding tool for creating your own outdoor hybrids. Thanks to its stability and adaptation to harsh climatic conditions, it provides an excellent basis for new crosses. Particularly noteworthy is its fast reaction to the shortened daylight hours after the summer solstice, which means that the plant starts flowering early. This characteristic is also reliably passed on to its offspring, making Baglung Nepalese an outstanding parent for breeding projects in regions with shorter summers.

Harvest and cultivation:
At the 48th latitude in Germany, Baglung Nepalese reaches full maturity at the end of September. With a flowering time of around 60 to 70 days, the plant begins to flower in mid-July and is therefore ideal for outdoor growers who want to harvest their crop before the first fall frosts. It forms compact, resinous flowers that are covered in a dense layer of sticky resin. The plant reaches a height of up to 4 meters under optimal conditions and is extremely resistant to adverse weather conditions.

Aroma and effect:
The aroma of Baglung Nepalese is multi-layered and complex. It combines earthy, spicy, pungent and woody notes, which are complemented by sweet and fruity undertones. The effect is typical of a mostly sativa strain: uplifting, energizing and creativity-enhancing, but it also has physical effects and relaxes the body and mind
