Malawi Gold is a 100% pure sativa landrace strain originating from the African nation of Malawi. Growing this strain can be difficult, particularly for beginners, as the plants are known to grow exceptionally tall and may require up to 16 weeks to finish flowering. This strain delivers a signature high with uplifting and mentally energizing effects that come on quickly, bringing a wave of clarity, focus, and happiness without the anxious side often associated with sativas. Yet the potency of the effects is relatively mild due to its low THC levels of around 13%, yet the mental boost it provides tends to be quite long-lasting. In terms of flavor, Malawi Gold offers a pleasant mix of sweet and spicy herbal notes, accented by citrus, floral, and earthy tastes. Thanks to its clear-headed and energizing effects, Malawi Gold is often chosen to help alleviate mild depression, chronic stress, and fatigue.
