Dasht Desert is an heirloom landrace strain that originates from Balochistan, Pakistan. Balochistan is an arid, mountainous, desert region that is Pakistan's largest province but also its least heavily populated. Dasht Desert is a regular, indica-dominant, early-flowering, photoperiod cannabis strain.

Dasht Desert's natural environment is cold, dry and high altitude but it can also be grown successfully outdoors in cold, dry climates, sub-tropical mountain and temperate regions. Most phenotypes have narrow, sativa-like leaves and very seeds_plant_height=seeds_plant_height=Tall internodal spacing, a reflection of its adaptation to the prevailing environmental conditions. Growers will be happy to see a greater production of flowering clusters than of leaf.

This is a strain that requires little attention or nutrients making it easy to grow. It has a very high resistance to drought and benefits from good drainage as it likes to stretch its roots, a trait that is a response to the local environment in which it developed. Plants typically grow to a height of 120 - 150 cm. with some phenos displaying nice purple shades. Northern hemisphere harvests are due around October / November following a 9 - 11 week flowering period and yields are good at 300 - 650 gr/plant. Good resin production for making hashish.

The scent of Dasht Desert combines rotten onions, diesel, pepper and cloves while its flavour is fruity with notes of basil and hints of fuel. The psychoactive effect is cerebral and uplifting with an initial 'head rush'.
