Mazar Seeds

Mazar: Afghan Skunk

Some growers believe it is the Afghani genetics that gives Mazar plants their unique look. The plants feature dark green leaves and bright buds. Those buds are coated with trichomes that make them sparkle and shimmer in certain light. The buds have red, orange, and yellow pistils sprouting from within adding to the potent aroma. While the crystal resin makes the buds appear brighter than they are, they do the same thing to the harvested nuggets. You will see bright green and bright amber covering the nuggets once they are clipped and dried. Those nuggets are dense and skunky, which is a scent that growers and users really seem to love. The Mazar strain of cannabis has multiple major award wins to brag about. It won second place at the High Times Cannabis Cup in 1999 and 2002. It also took home first place at the Tipo Forte in 2008 as well as the Plant of the Year award from Soft Secrets Magazine in 2014. These wins are massive and prove just how well-received the Mazar strain is.

Growing Tips for Our Seeds

Mazar Seeds can be grown indoors and outdoors by inexperienced growers as long as they follow a few simple rules. The plants love a Mediterranean, tropical climate, with warm sunshine and plenty of fresh air. A slightly cooler temperature at night is okay, but not too cold that the plants die. Because the plants tend to grow on the shorter side you can plant them anywhere indoors or out and can even harvest multiple plants to get those yield numbers to grow. Make sure the soil stays moist. Feed the plant nutrients with a high phosphorus content during the flowering stage to help the buds develop.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

• Indoor or Outdoor: Mazar cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by all levels of growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is right around 68-81 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. The Mazar strain needs 18 hours of light and 6 hours of total darkness. When they begin to flower they will need 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness.
•  Moisture control: In terms of humidity levels, you’ll want to set it at 60-70% during the vegetative growth stage. To get the plants through to the flowering stage, you will need to drop the humidity to a steady 40-50% to avoid mold, mildew, and bud rot.
• Training Techniques: Topping, Low-stress training, and the Screen of Green method (SCroG) are the best training techniques for these plants. Each of these techniques will increase yield sizes if performed correctly.

The Germination Game Plan

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect to harvest after a short flowering period of 50-60 days. Growing Mazar cannabis plants outdoors should result in a very satisfying yield near the middle of October.
• Yields: While Indoor yields are around 500 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 600 grams per plant. The easy-to-grow strain provides growers with healthy and hefty yields at the end of the grow. These numbers are fantastic given the work required to get them to harvest.

Dominant Terpenes in Mazar: Fruity and Nutty

The Mazar terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while myrcene and limonene are secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – Spicy and peppery this terpene is found in cloves, black pepper, and cinnamon as well as cannabis.
• Myrcene: Secondary Terpene – Earthy and herbal contributing to the strain’s relaxing effects on the user.
• Limonene: Citrus – Found in the rinds of citrus fruits like lemons this terpene helps with anxiety and can improve lung function.

Dominant Cannabinoids in Mazar:

Cannabinoids play an important role in Mazar seeds and are generally a huge part of most strains of cannabis. That relaxed, sleepy, and euphoric feeling you get when enjoying the Mazar strain is due to its dominant cannabinoids. Each cannabinoid does something different to the user.

• THC: The Main Character – THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of this strain. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at 19%, the THC in this Indica-dominant strain is responsible for the relaxed and euphoric feeling you get when enjoying Mazar cannabis.
• CBD: Very Minimal Amounts – While the CBD levels in Mazar are about 1%, the cannabinoid is still present, and the effects are noticeable in this strain.
