Manufacturer: Super Sativa Seed Club
Black Lebanon is a real treat for the true connoisseur of old-school cannabis strains. This is the original Black Lebanon from the 1980's, a real top quality hash plant. To stabilize this old classic strain, the SSSC crossed it with a Blackberry male, then selected individuals that most closely resembled the original Black Lebanon. Black Lebanon is one of the strongest landrace strains from Lebanon, thanks to Lebanese landrace genetics she is naturally very resilient to high temperatures and dry climates. The smell is a bit fruitier than the original Black Lebanon and actually much tastier! The plants are dark green or show purple hues, some can look almost black - this makes these plants a real feast for the eyes!
Lineage: Lebanon #1 x Lebanon #5 Genetics: mostly Indica Flowering Time: 9 weeks Smell: fruity, red Lebanese THC: 20%
The Super Sativa Seed Club (SSSC) has roots going back to the mid 1980s in Den Haag. It grew out of the original Sacred Seeds work and quickly gained a reputation for strains like Durban x Thai, Williams Wonder, and M39. The story begins when Sam the Skunkman moved from California to the Netherlands, bringing Haze and Skunk #1 genetics. From there, Karel Schelfhout used these plants to build the early SSSC library.

The company worked alongside names like Nevil Schoenmaker, who founded the first international seed bank and created Nevil’s Haze. SSSC made waves in High Times, but much of the early collection was later lost. Still, Karel preserved a cutting of Old School Haze, which remains at the heart of their work. Today, Karel’s son Kees continues the breeding, keeping the classic strains alive for a new generation.
