Growing outdoors, these thick-stemmed, bushy sativas should be expected to finish bigger than a standard indica, without becoming unmanageably tall and slender like many Haze hybrids. In bloom, flower clusters have the characteristic sativa ‘run’, causing her sturdy branches to become full with long, sticky, delightfully dense colas of bud. This combination of size, heavy lateral branching and long, running buds makes Jamaican Pearl one of Sensi Seeds best-producing and most reliable outdoor seed strains.
The enhanced bud structure is due to the difference between Caribbean sativas and their Southeast Asian relatives. Although the wild tropical sativas native to the region make up a majority of their gene pool, many strains of cultivated Jamaican cannabis have a relatively recent link to indica varieties, which were brought to the islands from the Indian subcontinent in the last few centuries. Traces of the indica influence are still seen in the thicker buds and shorter, wider profile possessed by many of the region’s most prized sativa cultivars.
That same influence is still strongly felt, as well - in the potent, uplifting, yet mellow sativa high for which Jamaican cannabis is famous. Where a powerful Haze high could be described as ‘electric’, Jamaican Pearl Feminized is more like sunshine - breezy, warm and happy. And very, very high, naturally! It’s an effect that can enhance an active daytime adventure or just as easily fit into a relaxed evening with good food and music.
