Giant and vigorous Siberian Ruderalis Autoflowering strain with good trichome production. The villagers near lake Chebarkul (Russia) have been using these semi-wild plants for making some incredibly flavorful, high CBD charas.

This Siberian Ruderalis variety can thrive in some of the most inhospitable places on Earth.

The high vigor, hardiness and extreme flowering speed combined with the autoflowering gene allow these landrace plants to grow in places where most cannabis strains wouldn't stand a chance.

This Chebarkul landrace strain is likely to be the result of a past hybridization between the landraces originating from nearby Kazakhstan and the local Ruderalis variety.

This would explain the pungent citrusy smell, high trichome production as well as the mild psychoactivity of most phenotypes. Central Asia is likely to be the place were cannabis was domesticated for the very first time, over 14 000 years ago.

These seeds are the result of 3 generations of controlled open pollination. By decreasing the proportion of weak plants and hermaphrodites while preserving a high genetic diversity, we were able to adapt this strain to indoor growing.

The plants automatically start flowering after only 2 to 3 weeks after germination.  As the Siberian Ruderalis plants are flowering, they keep getting taller and taller until they reach 120 to 190 centimeters.

Towards the end of their flowering cycle, over 25% of the plants turn purple. Not only are these plants vigorous but they need very little nutrients in order for them to thrive. Even less so than most landrace strains because they naturally grow in rocky soil. 

The Siberian Ruderalis comes from a place where the winter is extremely cold (-21°C in January on average).

Therefore, the seeds have a very thick, waterproof shell which allows them to only sprout in late spring when the winter is over.  For that reason, cold treating or cracking/nicking the seeds is recommended. 

Soaking the seeds in water containing Aloe Vera gel and cracking them after the soak allows to achieve germination rates over 80%. Note that each pack contains extra seeds so growers can practice the seed cracking method.

Our friend “Guardian of the Lost Terps”, a member of the “Russian Landrace Bureau” handpicked the seeds (the first generation) directly at source.

The Siberian Ruderalis Landrace could be a precious asset to breeders looking to create hardy XXL autoflowering strains with a very unique flavor and high CBD content.
