Strain Hunters Seed Bank
The origin of the Strain Hunters seed bank dates back to 2013. Their goal is to preserve the rarest cannabis varieties in the world. Three researchers – Arjan, Franco, and Simon – travel to particularly vulnerable landscapes in the poorest areas of our planet. On their official website, they state that they feel a duty to preserve the best cannabis strains, with which they can further breed plants with the vision of creating new medicinal varieties. They place great emphasis on scientific research of medicinal cannabis utilization.
In the offering of this bank, you can find the best feminized seeds of regular and automatic hybrid models. Thanks to their numerous travels across the entire world, they often surprise you with exotic cannabis variations that you cannot find elsewhere. The selection of individual varieties is meticulously examined under a magnifying glass, thus only the very best makes it to the public offer.
Strain Hunters is known not only for their quality cannabis seeds, but also for the documentaries they film during their travels for unique varieties. Many species of this plant are isolated in almost inaccessible areas, and that is exactly where the expedition members' paths lead. Some well-known varieties originate from these areas and may contain hundreds, perhaps thousands of completely unique cannabinoid profiles that cannot be found elsewhere. The promise of utilizing such unique compound groupings is clear proof that this research activity makes sense.

The vision is built on the need to preserve natural wealth for human needs. This idea has a great impact and gives people a sense of participating in supporting useful activities for the good of humanity. In the reviews of the users themselves, we can often read long essays on this topic, which often end with a bow to the work of Strain Hunters.
To be a strain hunter – which is the literal translation of the name – is a great challenge and a life mission. This approach is reflected in all aspects associated with this cannabis seed brand. Such a "hunter" must be socially skilled, speak several languages, be oriented in environments and cultures, and last but not least, possess a certain kind of madness. Visit every continent in the world, discover unexplored landscapes, experience indescribable experiences. It sounds like science fiction or a dream of any small child. However, it is necessary to point out a whole range of unpleasant situations. In the documentaries, we are occasionally witnesses to misunderstandings by the indigenous inhabitants of poorly accessible locations or disputes with the government of some countries.
Damnesia
As the name might suggest to some of you, this variety has to do with a strain called "Amnesia". Specifically, it is a combination of AMS (Anti Mold Strain) and the very famous Amnesia Haze. The plant reaches medium to large sizes with long branches covered in very dense buds, which produce a lot of resin. In terms of color, it could be compared to lime green. Since it has such strong buds during maturation, it is recommended to tie the branches to prevent unwanted breaking. When growing outdoors, you can achieve a yield of up to 1 kg, with a flowering period of 9 weeks. Genetic dispositions are 40% indica, 60% sativa. The plant has a scent of black pepper and sandalwood. The taste is a mixture where floral, mossy, fruity, and woody essences dominate. Effects support creativity or openness when you are in company. In medicine, it acts effectively in pain relief.

White Strawberry Skunk
The name of this variety sounds really delicious, doesn't it? Its origin can be found in Switzerland, specifically in a model called Erdbeer. The plant reaches high growth and very rich yield, whether you grow outdoors or indoors. As is typical for models in the "White" group, this cannabis produces a large amount of resin. The flowering period is approximately 8-9 weeks. The taste is very fruity, as the name suggests, reminiscent of forest fruits and citrus. Effects are initially sedative but transform into stimulating after a while. It is ideal to utilize these properties before going out in company. Genetic dispositions are 50% indica, 50% sativa – this explains its effects that hover between both types. If you suffer from depression or just have a bad mood, White Strawberry Skunk is the number one choice for you.

Flowerbomb Kush
The result of crossing Green Crack and OG Kush models is this highly potent variety called Flowerbomb Kush. Although it grows to medium height, its branches are quite long, making it very voluminous in width. After just 8 weeks, the harvest period arrives, during which outdoor cultivation often reaches yields exceeding 1 kg. Like all cannabis plants, it always depends on many conditions to which the plant is exposed throughout its life. In the cannabis world, its branches are often colloquially referred to as "fox tails" before harvest. The fragrance is very earthy, citrusy, with a spicy background. In terms of taste, earthy, fruity, and mossy notes dominate. The first effects are rather relaxing, but then transform into energizing feelings that awaken your creativity, writes the manufacturer. Genetic dispositions are 70% indica, 30% sativa.
