CONGO | ACE SEEDS | PHOTOPERIOD CANNABIS SEEDS REGULAR

Genetics & Origins

Congo is an F1 hybrid that masterfully blends African and Pakistani genetics.

The backbone of this strain comes from two Congolese sativas—Bangi Congo and Congo #3—known for their euphoric, stimulating effects and exquisite flavors.

To balance the long flowering time and tall structure, breeders incorporated Pakistan Chitral Kush (PCK), a hardy indica that enhances resistance to cold, pests, and humidity.

The PCK influence also introduces deep purple and magenta hues, especially in cooler temperatures, making Congo a visually striking strain with superior resilience.

Effects & Experience

• Clean, energetic, and creative high, perfect for daytime use and social activities.
• Uplifting and mood-enhancing, making it great for motivation, focus, and artistic inspiration.
• No heavy body load, allowing you to stay active and productive without couchlock.
• Slight indica influence provides subtle relaxation but never overpowers the sativa clarity.

Flavor & Aroma

Congo’s terpene profile delivers a vibrant mix of floral and fruity notes:

• Floral petal essence, reminiscent of fresh blossoms.
• Sweet grape and berry undertones, with hints of wild blackberries and strawberries.
• Mild earthy spice, likely influenced by its Pakistani landrace genetics.

The complex bouquet makes this strain a pleasure for connoisseurs who appreciate rich, layered aromas.
