The multi-awarded Sour Ripper has become one of the most renowned cannabis strains from Ripper Seeds catalogue, doubtless thanks to its amazing sour and diesel flavour transmitted by one of the genetics used to create it, the legendary Sour Diesel.  The guys at Ripper Seeds have fixed the most desirable traits of this plant: vigorous growth, broad and scarce leaves (which makes trimming it a joke), intense effect and, of course, its unique sour scent.

However, Sour Ripper also shows some new traits that will surely delight all lovers of Sour Diesel: earlier flowering (9-10 weeks), more compact buds, increased yields...As you can see, it is an excellent breeding project in which the most desirable traits have been kept while some others have been improved.

Karma Genetics...It's all about Karma!!

We're delighted to welcome Karma Genetics to our catalogue of cannabis seed banks, one of the most reputed companies in the seed sector. It all started in 1996, when Karma began working at a coffeshop in Amsterdam. Soon after, he ran a local grow shop for some time and in 2.000 he started to breed his own hybrids. His passion for breeding led him to develop some plants that soon skyrocketed in popularity on the underground scene. Indeed, after winning the coveted ICMag Cup in Amsterdam in 2008 he decided to create his own seed company, Karma Genetics.

Doubtless, and ever since he started breeding cannabis, Karma spacialized in developing first quality OG Kush hybrids, creating some of the best OG genetics on the seed market. While during the first years only regular seeds were produced, today we can also find feminised versions of many of his projects, so all types of growers can find the type of seed they want. In addition, Karma has collaborated with reputed breeders during his career, such as Mosca Seeds, Canna Venture or HortiLab, with which he developed the multi-awarded Sour Power OG.

Cali Terpenes is a Spanish company created by Toni and Ferran of Eva Seeds and dedicated to the elaboration of 100% natural terpene concentrates. Thanks to it’s modern laboratory for processing and analysis, and by using only natural raw materials of the best quality, this young company has been able to develop a series of formulas reproducing the terpene profile of several well-known cannabis varieties, among them Gipsy Haze and Gorilla Glue. Far from resembling the many mediocre quality terpene profile reproductions of certain plants, and owing to a studied and rigorous process of production, the work of Cali Terpenes represents a significant step forward in this sector.

Over the last few years, using terpenes has become increasingly popular in both the recreational and the medical field, especially in the United States, where the Cali Terpenes team were inspired to create their company. Highly versatile, they can be mixed with edible oils (such as coconut oil, for cooking delicious recipes), used with resin vaporisers or, being effective natural solvent diluents, they can be combined with cannabinoids such as THC or CBD. It’s a great way to improve the flavour of both edible products and cannabis concentrates. In addition to the recreational use, terpenes are also known to drastically increase the effectiveness of cannabinoids, working in synergy to create an ‘entourage effect’ modulating and potentiating the therapeutic effects of cannabinoids. Indeed, it can be used to make the effect of a concentrate like the Clear more Sativa or Indica, more stimulating or relaxing.

In recent years the numerous scientific studies that have come to light demonstrating the medicinal properties of CBD have led to a marked increase in the demand, not just for CBD-rich cannabis varieties, but also for food and cosmetic products high in CBD.

As a result, cannabis breeders and geneticists have been working to stabilise their hybrids, maximising the cannabinoid content in their varieties, and each year more new varieties with higher and higher CBD contents are released on the market.

As an example of this evolution, in this article we will talk about several of the new generation of CBD-rich cultivars, all recent additions to the Alchimia seed catalogue. These are varieties specially developed to achieve as high a level of CBD as possible in the majority of the offspring, with almost no psychoactive effect, but with a high therapeutic potential making them ideal for the treatment of diverse ailments such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, anorexia, epilepsy, autism, and many other conditions.
