7 Best Strains in Germany

Due to strict regulations and unfavourable outdoor growing conditions, many German growers prefer to cultivate cannabis indoors or in greenhouse environments. These controlled growing environments can yield higher yields, better quality, and more predictable results. By controlling factors such as temperature, humidity levels, and lighting schedules, growers can ensure their plants receive the optimal conditions for growth and development.

A notable trend in Germany is the popularity of Skunk strains. The country’s colder climate also enhances the possibility of purple hues in cannabis, making Purple strains particularly popular. Here’s the full top 7:
