Landrace
The term "Landrace" refers to strains of the Cannabis family of plants that have evolved in a specific region or climatic zone without human intervention. These strains are known for their unique and distinct characteristics, including flavour, aroma, and effects.
Landrace strains have been growing and evolving for millennia in their natural habitat, adapting to the local environment and climate. As a result, they have developed unique traits that are not found in cannabis cultivars from other regions.
