Himalaya Snow Regular Seeds by Ace Seeds – 90% Sativa Landrace Hybrid for Resilient Outdoor Growing

Himalaya Snow Regular by Ace Seeds is a 90% sativa hybrid that brings the raw power and mystique of the Himalayas into your garden, delivering tall, resin-coated plants and a crisp, uplifting high perfect for daytime clarity and creative flow.

Still stuck with bland, low-resin sativas that collapse in the rain or fade in flavor after harvest? You’re not growing wild enough.

Most traditional sativa landraces are fragile, inconsistent, and barely survive outside their native zones. They stretch too much, yield little, and often disappoint when grown beyond the tropics. And when the autumn rains hit, mold takes over before you even get to harvest.

Himalaya Snow Regular fixes all that. Born from two elite Nepalese wild sativas—Annapurna and Kathmandu—and touched with legendary Kali Mist, this strain doesn’t just survive harsh conditions, it thrives. It’s built for resilience, loaded with trichomes on both buds and leaves, and ready to deliver a clean, cerebral high even in cold, wet autumns.

What It Feels Like to Grow and Smoke Himalaya Snow

Imagine a plant that towers like a jungle giant, its long internodes and thin sativa leaves dancing in the wind, crowned with airy, frosty colas that shimmer like fresh snow. When you break a bud, the scent bursts with sweet strawberry yogurt, ripe banana, and a creamy milkiness, finishing with a bittersweet Haze and Nepalese charas incense when lit.

The high hits fast—expansive, euphoric, and crystal clear. It’s not a couch-lock buzz; it’s a mental spark that sharpens focus, fuels conversation, and makes you want to move, create, explore. Physically, it’s revitalizing, not draining. No hangover, no fog—just pure, functional energy that lasts.

How to Maximize Your Himalaya Snow Harvest

Whether you're chasing top-tier flavor, resin production, or outdoor resilience, these tips will help you unlock Himalaya Snow’s full potential—from germination to curing.

• Start early indoors under 18/6 light to control stretch and build strong roots before transplanting.
• Use the Trikologic (Bioponic Mix) for a living soil base that boosts terpene expression and root health.
• Train with SCROG or low-stress techniques to spread the canopy and maximize lateral bud sites.
• Feed low to moderate nitrogen in veg, then switch to a balanced bloom formula like Sensi Bloom A+B Advanced Nutrients at peak flowering.
• Avoid flowering stimulators—they can trigger hermaphroditism in sensitive phenos.
• Harvest when trichomes turn milky white with a hint of amber for peak THC and clarity.
• Cure slowly (2–3 weeks at 60% RH) to preserve its delicate fruity-cream aroma.

Why Himalaya Snow Fits Perfectly in Your Grow Journey

This strain isn’t just for purists—it’s for anyone who values genetic depth, resilience, and a high that actually enhances life. Pair it with Clonex Rooting Hormone Gel for faster starts, or grow it alongside other Barneys Farm sativas for a diverse, high-energy garden.

Its resistance to cold, rain, and mold makes it ideal for northern gardens, mountain zones, or wet Mediterranean autumns. And with CBG levels up to 1.73%, it offers a broader cannabinoid profile than most old-school sativas.

How to grow Himalaya Snow Regular seeds

Quick overview: Regular photoperiod from Ace Seeds · 10–12 week flowering · medium difficulty · best for outdoor or spacious indoor grows in cool to temperate climates.

Safe start: Germinate in a moist, dark environment at 22–25 °C. Transplant carefully when the taproot is ~1 cm long.

• Use jiffy pellets or starter cubes for minimal root disturbance.
• Keep humidity high (70%) and light gentle (20W LED).
• Apply Clonex Rooting Hormone Gel to boost early root development.
• Avoid overwatering—let the top layer dry between irrigations.
• Ensure pH stays between 6.0–6.5 in soil.

Directed growth: Move to 18/6 light cycle and start veg with airy soil and steady watering.

• Use pots of 11–20 L depending on final height goals.
• Train early with LST or topping to control height and boost yield.
• Feed low to moderate nutrients—this strain prefers balance over force.
• Introduce Trikologic (Bioponic Mix) for microbial support and terpene boost.
• Ensure good airflow to prevent humidity buildup.

Flowering by stages: Switch to 12/12 light to trigger bloom—expect a long stretch phase.

• Keep RH at 50% early, then drop to 40–45% in mid-flower.
• Support branches with stakes or SCROG net as buds gain weight.
• Apply Sensi Bloom A+B Advanced Nutrients from week 3 onward.
• Avoid flowering boosters to reduce hermaphrodite risk.
• Monitor trichomes weekly in the final 3 weeks.

Harvest, drying and curing: Cut at peak trichome maturity for best effect.

• Flush with plain water 7–10 days before harvest.
• Trim and dry at 18–20 °C and 50–60% RH for 7–10 days.
• Cure in glass jars, burping daily for 2–3 weeks.
• Store in a cool, dark place to preserve terpenes.
• Enjoy the full evolution of its charas-like finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Himalaya Snow good for beginners?

It’s medium difficulty—great for growers with some experience, especially outdoors. Its resilience helps, but its tall structure requires space and training.

Can I grow Himalaya Snow indoors?

Yes, but it needs height (1.4+ m) and space. Use LST or SCROG to manage its sativa stretch and maximize yield in limited areas.

What’s the flowering time for Himalaya Snow?

Indoors: 10–12 weeks. Outdoors: ready by end of October to early November in the Northern Hemisphere.

Does it have high CBD?

No, it’s low in CBD (0–0.03%) but rich in CBG (up to 1.73%), offering a broader cannabinoid experience than typical sativas.

Why is it called an 'improved charas' strain?

Unlike wild Nepalese sativas that only resinify calyxes, Himalaya Snow coats nearby leaves in trichomes—making it easier to produce high-quality hand-rubbed charas.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I grew Himalaya Snow last season in my mountain greenhouse at 43ºN, and it was a revelation. While other sativas folded under October rains, this one stood tall—branches heavy with frosty, aromatic buds. I used SCROG to flatten the canopy, which doubled my yield. The high? Pure mental fuel. I’d wake up, vape a bowl, and feel instantly alert, creative, and ready to tackle the day. No anxiety, no crash. I even made some killer hand-rubbed charas from the trim—sticky, fragrant, and smooth. My only tip: don’t push the nutrients. I tried a PK booster once, and two plants developed male flowers. Stick to basics, and you’ll be rewarded.
