For decades, the use of cannabis by humans is subject to controversies and legality. But there is one entity that does not have to worry about the law.
After all, there is no statute anywhere in the world that bans cats from its use. Yes, that’s right, a cat named Digweed.
To be sure, the names of marijuana strains often have a backstory. However, none is as fascinating as this one.
The strain Digweed was bred by the House of the Great Gardener (H.O.T.G.G.).
Information about Digweed marijuana strain:
To create this hybrid, they used a pure Indica plant and crossed it with an award-winning strain.
Of all the landrace strains in the world, the ones in the Hindu Kush region of Afghanistan is arguably the best.
The native Indica in this area has been used by breeders to create not only prominent strains but also the top families of hybrids.
These pure breeds are especially notable for inducing deep relaxation.
Sweet Tooth, the other strain, is not a landrace strain like the Afghani. But it traces its genetic lineage to three pure breeds from Hawaii, Nepal, and Afghanistan, of course.
While it leans towards its Indica heritage, the strain has well-balanced mental and physical effects that leave users feeling euphoric.
A testament to its genetics and quality is by winning the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2001.
After crossing and stabilizing the new hybrid, it was time for H.O.T.G.G. to pick a name.
Of the different ways breeders choose names for cannabis strains, they decided on naming it Digweed after their cat.
That is because this cat loves to put its teeth on marijuana.
