Vol. III · The Landrace Library
Landraces are pure populations of cannabis that evolved in isolation over centuries — shaped by altitude, climate, and the practices of the communities that grew them. Almost every strain in a UK clinic today descends from a handful of these heritage strains. Many are now endangered. This archive preserves their geography, lineage and traditional medical use.
