Provenance & Sources

The lineage and origin details above are first-party claims from the named breeder’s published documentation, not independently verified genetics. Per the archive’s cultivar identity framework, cultivar names do not fix chemical composition, and breeder-attributed pedigrees are claims that can conflict across sources.

• Dutch Passion, “Mazar®” strain page: describes the variety as an Afghan Indica classic. https://dutch-passion.com/en/cannabis-seeds/mazar (accessed 2026-08-08)
• Dutch Passion’s own catalog text (quoted in the SeedFinder strain record): “This is an upgraded selection of our valued former Afghan/Skunk. We improved the variety in 1997.” The “renamed from Mazar-i-Sharif in 1997” detail is reported in secondary references and is consistent with, but not stated verbatim on, the current first-party page.
