Welcome to Landrace.Wiki

The definitive reference for landrace cannabis genetics, cultivation and conservation.

Landrace cannabis represents the original, pure genetic foundations of Cannabis before modern hybridization. These ancient varieties evolved naturally in their native environments over thousands of years, shaped by local climate, soil and traditional cultivation practices. Each landrace tells the story of both the plant's adaptation and the cultures that stewarded these genetics through generations.

This wiki serves as a comprehensive repository for preserving the knowledge, genetics, and cultural heritage of these irreplaceable cannabis populations from around the world.

Theory

Everything from the basics to high level thinking for all the Cannabis nerds.

Dive deep into the scientific foundations that make landrace cannabis unique. From basic plant biology to advanced genetic concepts, this section covers the theoretical knowledge needed to understand what makes these varieties special and how they've evolved over millennia.

What is landrace Cannabis? - Plant structure, morphology, and biological systems Cannabis Botany - Plant structure, morphology, and biological systems Genetics & Breeding - Population genetics, heredity, and landrace characteristics Biochemistry - Cannabinoids, terpenes, and chemical profiles Taxonomy - Classification systems and nomenclature Research Methods - Field collection, analysis, and documentation techniques

Geography

Here you can find all of the information related to the geography of landrace cannabis.

Geography is destiny for landrace cannabis. Each region's unique combination of latitude, altitude, climate and soil has shaped distinct genetic populations. Explore how environmental pressures and human selection created the incredible diversity we see in traditional cannabis varieties.
