Afghani
Afghani is not a terpene but rather a landrace cannabis classification originating from Afghanistan's Hindu Kush mountain region. The term describes a plant type and genetic family characterized by broad leaflets, dense bud structure, and early-finishing phenotypes. Lineage records frequently report Afghani genetics expressing earthy, woody, and resinous aromatic profiles, though specific terpene compositions vary by individual plant and growing conditions. Breeders have used Afghani as a foundational genetic for creating indica-dominant hybrids since the 1970s. The classification remains significant in cannabis genealogy and selective breeding programs worldwide.

Afghani landrace genetics are valued by breeders for traits including short flowering times, robust resin production, and structural stability in hybrid crosses. Many contemporary cultivars trace Afghani ancestry in their pedigrees.
