WHY BOTANICAL SCIENCE
Broader Spectrum of Relief:
Treats a wide range of conditions such as: chronic pain, nausea, epilepsy, and MS - offering relief where Pharma has often proven to be less effective.
Fewer & Milder Side Effects:
Compared to pharmaceutical opioids, many patients report way less severe side effects and prefer plant based, sustainable long-term treatment.
Lower Dependency Risk:
There's a significantly lower risk of dependency and overdose compared to prescription drugs, especially opioids.
Neuroprotective Qualities:
Research indicates that compounds in marijuana may protect against neurodegenerative diseases, such as MS, Alzheimer’s & Parkinson’s.
Enhanced Quality of Life:
Users often report improved sleep, reduced anxiety, and better pain management, contributing to a better overall quality of life.
All Stanley Brothers stains are organically grown by master-growers in the Mountains of Colombia at over 2500M elevation.
Our premium flower is grown in organic, nutrient rich living soil (LSO) to yield the full genetic potential of the cultivar. Our farming practices are greenhouse, sun grown, well-watered and have zero carbon footprint.
All strains are harvested by hand, hang-dried and slow cold cured to maximise flavour and terpene yield. Each bud is carefully hand-trimmed and the finest cola-crowns are packed & nitrogen sealed.
CULTIVATION PHILOSOPHY.
PURE LANDRACE FLOWER
WHAT ARE LANDRACE STRAINS?
Landrace strains are plants indigenous to a certain region and have developed unique characteristics to adapt to their natural environment. These strains have not been crossbred with other varieties and are considered the purest form of genetics.
These strains have been cultivated for thousands of years, and each region’s unique climate and soil conditions have influenced their development. They are often named after their place of origin, like ‘Afghani’ from Afghanistan or ‘Durban Poison’ from South Africa.
GENETIC PURITY
With no genetic modification or crossbreeding, these strains are 100% pure and natural.
CULTURAL HERITAGE
They represent a deep connection to the historical and cultural practices of cultivation.
UNIQUE EFFECTS
With no breeding dilution, landrace offer unique effects specific to the cannabinoid & terpene profiles.
ROBUSTNESS
Adapted over centuries to thrive in specific climatic conditions, landrace tend to be hardy and resilient.
AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCE
Users can enjoy a consumption experience that is as close as possible to that of ancient use.
UNIQUE TERPENE PROFILES
The distinct terpenes in landrace strains contribute to unique flavors & aromas uncommon in hybrid strains.
POTENTIAL MEDICAL BENEFITS
The unaltered genetic makeup offers unique medical benefits traditionally used by indigenous cultures.
ENTOURAGE EFFECT
The spectrum of cannabinoids & terpenes working together manifest a complete therapeutic effect.
CONSERVATION EFFORTS
As hybridization becomes more common, preserving landraces are crucial for maintaining biodiversity.
THE KEY REASONS WE CHOOSE SUN GROWN.
- Lower carbon footprint and environmentally friendly.
- Enhanced cannabinoid and terpene profiles are due to the full natural spectrum of sunlight.
- Incorporation of sustainable farming practices such as permaculture design and organic inputs.
- Sun-grown offers a richer, more nuanced experience due to the complex interplay of natural conditions that influence the plant’s development.
- Minimal energy input is required compared to indoor grows.
- Supports local ecosystems and biodiversity.
- Reduced waste and pollution due to less dependency on artificial products.
FARMING AT ALTITUDE.
INCREASED TERPENE PRODUCTION
Greater aroma and flavor profiles, along with improved pest resistance.
HEIGHTENED MINOR CANNABINOIDS
Plants have more therapeutic compounds for better health benefits.
INCREASED NUTRITIONAL CONTENT
Richer in Antioxidants, contributing to better nutritional & medicinal properties.
BETTER PLANT RESILIENCE
Plants adapt more effectively to stress, boosting beneficial compounds.
