Origin

Power Plant is an inbred line off South African sativa landraces, selected and stabilized by Dutch Passion, though our records carry no formal lineage entry. There is no cross to trace; it is a worked landrace. Its value is in the stability and the yield, so the seed source, from the original breeder, is a real part of what you are buying.

2 lineage claim sets recorded. The one shown is attributed to CH9 Female Seeds; the others are in the tabs above, each with its own source.

About

Power Plant is named for its output, not its potency.

Dutch Passion built it in the 1990s from inbred South African sativa landraces and released it in 1997. It has won awards on three continents and spawned more than ten variants. The THC is not especially high; the yield and the reliability are what carry it.

What to Expect

Power Plant starts social and settles down. The associated words are led by happy and uplifted, with a talkative, energetic edge, then a deep relaxation that sources describe as the back half of the arc. It is an afternoon strain that begins like a wake-and-bake.

Dry mouth is a standout here, flagged very heavily in the associated notes, more than almost any strain in our data. Drink water and keep the dose moderate.

Flavor and Aroma

Power Plant is a pungent, peppery, herbal smell over an earthy, woody base, with a light sweetness underneath. Sources call it herby with a spicy aftertaste. It is an old-school African sativa profile, not a fruity one. The flavor is spicy and woody.

Terpenes Explained

Power Plant has no lab terpene data, only Humulene, Camphene and Caryophyllene as recurring names. The peppery, herbal descriptors fit those, but nothing here is quantified.

Landrace-derived strains often carry aromatic combinations modern panels were not built around, so a lab sheet may not fully explain the smell. Judge a batch by nose.

Cannabinoids and Potency

Power Plant THC is reported around 15 to 20 percent, with the lab-measured sample near 13, so the mid-teens is the realistic expectation. It also carries meaningful CBD in some cuts, up to about two percent, which is unusual for a strain not bred for it.

Expect a mid-teens strain and check the batch's numbers, since the CBD content varies.
