Alpujarreña is a photoperiod feminised strain from Pyramid Seeds, drawn from a private reserve selection and leaning strongly towards indica, with a stated profile of roughly nine parts indica to one part sativa. Its background is linked to a hardy local variety from the Sierra of Granada, grown at high altitude, and its leaves can take on purple hues when conditions turn cold. The aroma is sweet and soft with a gentle earthy undertone, supported by dominant terpenes myrcene, linalool and caryophyllene. Its effects are described as calming and deeply relaxing, which makes it a natural fit for evening use. The breeder lists THC at 19 per cent, with CBD described as low. Indoors it flowers in 48 to 55 days, depending on lighting, and it is rated as easy, making it a sensible choice for newer growers. It suits indoor, greenhouse and outdoor cultivation, with a stated indoor yield of 550 g per square metre and outdoor harvests typically arriving in early September in Europe.
