I`ve always wanted to try modern strains grown in Morocco. I never find that stuff here in Norway, but I`ve know you can find hash like that in Amsterdam from time to time. I`m curious on how the local soil and climate affects the taste and aroma compared to homemade dry sift made from indoor plants. Do you think you could share your opinions on the matter?
As a lover of import hash, I`m really glad you share this stuff with the rest of us

hey sixixis
yeah, even though they use modern techniques, the hash they got is not so fine and clean as the one you can make at your home. They have a lot of work to do in a couple of month (besides, their plants are polinated...)
Anyway, the hashish from this farm was way far superior than the other hashes ive tried other times here in Morocco.
This superb and excellent hash reach 10-12 eur/g in Spain, and ususally can be enjoyed in some posh clubs which offer it from time to time.
Vibes!

native hash inferior?
native hash inferior?
I was wondering, you said somewhere earlier that you had nice native smoke called "kiffi". It is inferior to these modern imported hybrids? In an ideal world, maybe not for the farmer or consumer but from the perspective of the breeder/preservationist or for the cannabis strain "geek" like me... each country or region would cultivate only or mostly its native types and people would travel to experience different types. I know that does not make a whole lot of sense in reality, but I hope measures are being taken in Morocco and other cannabis regions to preserve native landraces. What exactly is Moroccan weed like anyway, in other words putting aside accidental hybrids, is it a pure landrace or a hodge podge collection of numerous strains?
At any rate, really nice pics!

thanks for chime in.
Kiffi is the name of local landrace which was brought to Morocco in s. VIII aC by muslims. Its also related to the lebanese cannabis at some point, i remember i had read somewhere they both came from same family.
Kiffi´s THC level rates from 1-5% THC or so...go imagine. Its a light smoke for sure, but very nice and sweet.
At the end of 60´s, some hippies show the locals how to shift their poor plants and get the powder.
At the end of 90´s, some massive fields of a new plants appeared: The Pakistani. I remember i scored some hash in 2001 which was really divine. Ppl was asking me if it was bubble hash or what?!!?... Progressively, the so called paki genetics started to hybridize with the kiffi.
Every year, the paki is weaker and cheaper also. Instead, every year were having big batches of diff hashishs: Jamaicans, mexicans, amnesias and criticals...etc. But i only spotted these last ones only inna few places sorroundin Bab berred, and Ketama.
hope it helps.
Regarding the genetics, im sure there will always be some cannabis geeks like you and others who will keep the landraces...IMHO, im a young man and Im not really a big fun of any landrace. Im a hybrid guy dude!!! But i love the moroccan hash, especially when its properly made. In this last modern farm, they were growing kiffi with the same techniques as the modern hybrids, so the morocan hashish they got is truly supreme.
Thanks for stopping by dude.

I'm happy to see people love my country! Some of those pics really remind me of my family visits. Great topic.
thanks for the info man!
Thanks for sharing your trip! 
This is the huge afghan (only one plant) i posted some pages before, from the other side. It was a beast...i´d like to see how she turns into floweering...
Main stem of a cheese (the same i posted be4)
and a paki
Some very very fine Critical/Somango hashish...this one was the best of my whole trip. sweet - mellon taste.
Hasta luego bros!

That sounds like the stuff I wanna try
Regarding the different types, was all the kiffi hash you encountered blonde/sandy and the hardala darker/gummy?

A few Pics from last week up in the Rif.
These were taken about an hour further up from Bab Berred, high up in the Rif..
We stayed for 3 days
All the Pure Maroc genetic plants had been harvested already and were already in the drying rooms..And the Hardella were either drying or still growing, with the rest were being cropped within the next 2 weeks..
All the fields were irrigated, as they had 5 bore hole wells for water for the house /plants..
Was a real experience seeing everything up there, as I am a real hash hunter, and wasn't disappointed..
