ABC (Australian Bastard Cannabis)
This rare mutation has been found in the rural South of Australia in the 70´s or 80´s according to the cannabis Community. This plant has absolutely no resemblance to Cannabis apart from the flowers, yet DNA analysis has shown it to be Cannabis sativa. Yet it is the most distant relative in the Cannabis genus having even fewer genes in common with regular Cannabis than Hemp.
Often referred to as ABC for Australian Bastard Cannabis or Bindi Bud (Australian slang) the plants start their growth rather slow and pick up from the 6th week to grow much faster. The leaves are tiny in comparison to regular Cannabis plants, they have serrated and non-serrated expression, smooth, thick and heavily fingered sometimes variegated and shiny leaves. Generally, a large range of range variation can be observed with ABC leaves.
