About the archive

Built from an original UK weed strains archive

Strains is an independent UK cannabis strain database built around original photography, historic reviews and cultivar research. Each profile brings together the information people usually look for, including genetics and lineage, indica or sativa classification, aliases, documented cannabinoid data, terpene and aroma notes, and links to related strains.

Cannabis names and genetics are not always consistent. Where breeders, archives or sources disagree, we aim to identify the uncertainty rather than present disputed information as fact.
