Growing Sensi Seeds’ Mexican Sativa

Upon reading our Mexican Sativa’s page, you will see that its parents explain partly the incredible ease with which it can be grown. While its original genetics cover perfectly the array of scents and flavours one expects for a strain bearing this name, Sensi Seeds added a touch of Durban, and of a fast-flowering Paskistani hash plant in order to reduce the flowering time. This makes for a fast, sturdy, resistant plant that will undoubtedly be one of the stunners of your outdoor grow space.

Mexican Sativa has three most common phenotypes, one indica-dominant phenotype, and two sativa-dominant ones. On the sativa side, one of the phenotypes shows a slower growth, and a shorter plant than with the other two patterns. Regardless, all of them will deliver generous yields, even indoors.

“The yield was very good, easily twice the average yield of any other strain I have grown indoors!” – by Dirk, sensiseeds.com [x]

But while Mexican Sativa thrives indoors in the hands of any caring gardener, its productivity is definitely impressive in open-air, even in challenging conditions.

“The last 5 years I have had different indoor and outdoor grows. Always sativa-dominant ones. Mexican Sativa is the cheapest but my favourite smoke. Grown outdoors in Scandinavia you should harvest just before the temperatures drop below 0°C.” – by robin padilla, sensiseeds.com [x]

 “Just like Sensi Seeds’ description of the strain. Very beginner friendly, easy to grow, and will produce very large buds come harvest. These ladies grow very large, so it would be recommended to tie them down to allow a non-Christmas tree like shape, and to allow side branching to fill out.” – by GrowIt, seedfinder.eu [x]

Tasting Sensi Seeds’ Mexican Sativa

Many say that Mexican Sativa is a true representative of the country it is named after! Its taste is earthy, woody, with a distinct sandalwood aroma, and subtle hints of citrus, or fruits, depending on who you ask.

“The taste is fruity with many touches of citrus, a very pleasant trip free of sleepiness and [even] a great alertness, without headaches. Widely recommend it!” – by The one and only, sensiseeds.com [x]

The effect of Mexican Sativa is a cerebral high, mixed with smooth, unwinding body sensations. Curious beginners as well as experienced cannabis consumers will appreciate not only the vintage qualities of the strain, brought by its very special set of flavours, but also the surprisingly exhilarating high it provides!

“This strain is an exceptionally great Sativa! I love playing soccer, and thanks to Mexican Sativa, audacity and creativity abound on the field!” – by giardinierepaolo, sensiseeds.com [x]

  1. How were the family lines formed to create Mexican Sativa? Was the original Oaxacan crossed with the Durban and separately crossed with the Pakistani Hash Plant? Then crossed to each other? Reinforcing Oaxacan. {(Oaxacan x Durban) x (Oaxacan x Pak. Hash)} Then crossed back to the Original Oaxacan?Or was Oaxacan crossed with only “one”, and then by the “other”. Then back to Oaxacan?
    {(Oaxacan x Durban) x Pakistani} x Oaxacan Or
    {(Oaxacan x Pakistani) x Durban} x Oaxacan. Also, where the lines forward crossed for selected gene/pheno traits first before being crossed back to the original Oaxacan? Or,… do you even know?

      Good afternoon Joe,

      Thanks for your question,
      Unfortunately, we cannot give too much away about our Mexican Sativa genetics, but it was created by back-crossing an original Mexican Oaxaca with our Hash Plant and Durban.
      I hope this helps!

      Thanks again,

      Mark

    I have to admit that I started investigating this and then it slipped my mind as we focussed on the blog overhaul! My apologies. I have picked up on it again and hope to have some information for you soon.

    With best wishes and thanks for your patience,
