Due to being Flatland the cannabis is farmed either in Patches in Mild to dense Jungle like area, Mango Orchids Or Inside High wall parameter, like 10-14 ft. Which still remains easily accessible though but just hidden from Plain sight.

The Government interference has impacted the cannabis farming a lot already and to in a rapidly developing district, living a socially acceptable status means farmers weaning away from this cannabis as a livelihood.

The fast flowering expression comes with below average bract yields however copious amounts of very sticky resin, that closely resembles the Highland Hash plant like resin quality in texture, smaller trichomes but abundant and very sticky. The smell is quite intense like short flowering Broadleaf plants and gives off a clear smell of Raw-Mango/ Spices like pepper. The smoke induces a very balanced and generally associated with long flowering narrow leaf variety kind of uplifting High, which stays over for an amazingly long duration. The Onset of High is almost immediate and then it gradually shapes up.
