Haile Selassi I

Haile Selassi I is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 16-22% on average, with 0.5% CBD. Seeds come in feminized form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Haile Selassi I high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. Neither side ever overpowers the other, which is exactly why well-bred hybrids like this one earn permanent shelf space. These combined effects make Haile Selassi I a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

On the palate, expect coffee and citrus up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a citrus finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, fiery orange hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

In the garden, Haile Selassi I is an easy, forgiving grow that suits first-time cultivators, flowering in around 8 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. It shrugs off common beginner mistakes, and yields stay respectable even when conditions are less than perfect. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed.
