High Altitude Sativa Genetics

[justicebzwieg]

Altitude shapes sativa genetics as much as latitude does. Lines from high elevation regions in Nepal, Colombia, or the Rif mountains tend to be more compact, handle cooler nights, and finish faster than their lowland relatives, while still carrying the thin leaves and energetic profile.
