Top 5 Most Popular Cannabis Strains In The Netherlands

The Netherlands holds the title of cannabis capital of Europe. Travellers from all over the world make the pilgrimage to sample the fine coffeeshop establishments of Amsterdam and elsewhere. Growers in the country are spoiled for choice when it comes to cannabis consumption, but which strains do they most enjoy cultivating? After distributing much of our genetic archive to the country, we’ve discovered the five most popular strains among growers in the Netherlands.

1. AMNESIA HAZE

No surprises here! The Netherlands has a close relationship with Amnesia Haze. After original Haze genetics entered the country decades ago, breeders worked their magic and created Amnesia Haze within Dutch borders. Popular in coffeeshops across Amsterdam, Dutch growers also have a soft spot for this powerful sativa hybrid. She packs a hefty THC value of 22% and provides delicious earthy and citrusy terpenes. Her energetic high shifts motivation up a gear and leaves users looking for something to accomplish. Medium levels of CBD help level out the high and prevent things from becoming overwhelming.

Amnesia Haze provides a significant yield both indoors and outdoors. Indoor specimens grow to between 80–140cm tall and produce 650–700g/m² after a flowering time of 10–11 weeks. Outdoor plants surge to a towering height of 210cm and produce a rewarding yield of up to 700g/plant. Prepare to harvest these tree-like plants in late October.

4. FAT BANANA

Fat Banana follows the theme of mouth-watering genetics, but the tropical strain carries more great traits than taste alone. Dutch growers love her high THC levels, brief flowering time, and soothing effect. RQS breeders stabilised the strain after teasing out the best traits from parent strains Banana and OG Kush. The result? THC levels of 25% and an indica high that boosts the mood and eviscerates tension. Fat Banana will chill you out while treating your taste buds to powerful hits of candied tropical fruit. Perfect for the evening, she’ll lull you off to sleep after a period of introspection and meditation.
