The Lamb’s Breath Story

Lamb’s Breath, aka “Lamb’s Bread” or “Jahweed,” is a legendary landrace cannabis strain from Jamaica. It is a classic sativa, with energizing, creative and euphoric effects. Authentic Lamb’s Breath landrace seed has been hard to find – until now!

For four years, between 2014 and 2018, my wife and I spent 3 weeks each year doing volunteer work in Jamaica, helping farmers understand and adopt organic farming methods, and working with the National Certification Body of Jamaica (NCBJ) to establish an organic certification program. We spent most of our time at the Source Farm, in Johns Town, St. Thomas Parish, east of Kingston.

On our last visit, in 2018, we decided to spend some time at Couples Resort in Negril, after we had finished our work. We took a bus from Kingston to Negril. When we arrived in Negril, I met a grower named Jack. I let Jack know that I was a backyard grower from Minnesota, and was looking for Lamb’s Breath seeds.

Jack replied, “We grow Lamb’s Breath! Let me take you to the plantation!”

On Easter morning, I called Jack. He picked us up, and we drove up into the hills above Negril. We parked, and hiked up a narrow path, until we came to the “plantation,” which was an area full of ganja plants, about 4 acres in size. We toured the site, met Jack’s crew, and saw an area, in the corner of the field, where a few males were allowed to go to flower to pollinate the Lamb’s Breath seed crop. We talked about fertility management, pest control, and the state of ganja in Jamaica. Respect.

I bought a few Lamb’s Breath seeds from Jack, which I grew outdoors in MN, for personal use. I found the strain to live up to the legend! When consumed as smoked bud or as an edible, the effects are energizing, euphoric, and creative, yet clear-headed. No wonder it is known as Bob Marley’s favorite! The plants exhibit classic sativa traits – narrow leaves, vigorous growth, and a delightful earthy, musky, sweet skunky aroma.

In 2020, we moved from Minnesota to New England. I had 6 Lamb’s Breath seeds left in my possession. Knowing that Vermont had recently legalized personal cultivation of cannabis, I contacted a certified organic CBD grower to see if he would be interested in growing my remaining seeds in an isolated location as a seed crop. He was! He found an isolated location and grew out my six remaining seeds. Of the six, 4 were male plants. The top female has served as the basis for my breeding program. I named her “Legend.”

Lamb’s Breath Legend

The “Legend” mother plant tested 16.49% total THC, according to tests conducted by Bia Diagnostics. Further tests of plants grown from my Legend seeds, also conducted by Bia Diagnostics, have shown total THC levels from 18.2% to 20.6% THC. Tests have also revealed high terpene levels of 4.5% total terpenes by weight in the Legend flowers. Dominant terpenes include pinene (1.67%), myrcene (1.29%), caryophyllene (.47%), limonene (.41%), linalool (.30%), humulene (.17%), and guaiol (.135%). Lamb’s Breath Legend seeds are grown in isolation using organic methods and natural pollination. Lamb’s Breath Legend seeds are straight-run landrace Cannabis Sativa. Seed packets contain 8 regular seeds. As a landrace strain, plants will express some genetic variation.
