Reserva Privada

Reserva Privada is an anonymous group of specialist breeders who work as a subdivision of DNA Genetics. Devoted to producing the best possible strains from west coast DNA, they're a one-stop shop for epic American cannabis genetics. To give you an idea of how prestigious they are, every strain Reserva Privada releases is the recipient of at least one cannabis cup award—who else achieves such a feat?

What Does Reserva Privada Mean?

There's no shortage of unusual names in the cannabis industry, but 'Reserva Privada' may hold special meaning for this elite group of breeders. Traditionally, Reserva—meaning reserve—is a name given to Spanish wine aged three years or more. Privada is the feminine of privado, which, depending on the Spanish speaking country you're in, means something slightly different. However, a common translation is something like 'privy’—or private.

Loosely translated, Reserva Privada means 'private reserve'. While this could be a name and nothing more, it could also denote how they are experts in their field who wish to remain anonymous. Regardless of the true meaning, what we know for sure is they mean business!

DNA Genetics: The Masterminds Behind Reserva Privada

DNA genetics was born in the Netherlands, but when their seeds hit the west coast of the U.S, Reserva Privada was born. They made such a good impression that many of the U.S's best breeders flocked to them. Combining their specific knowledge of U.S strains with DNA Genetics' wealth of experience and almost perfect reputation, Reserva Privada began producing some of the rarest and most sought-after weed strains.

But why have they chosen to remain anonymous in a state where cannabis production is entirely legal? The simple answer? Because they believe that by staying under the radar, they can continue to create what they consider—as do many others—to be some of the most extraordinary buds around.

Who Are Reserva Privada Seeds For?

Despite Reserva Privada's elusive nature, their seeds are, of course, available to anyone. Unfortunately, they don't stock any autoflowering seeds, but that doesn't matter because their photoperiod varieties are second to none. However, if you want to get the most from their premium genetics, you'll need to have the right tools and experience. Meet those requirements, and Reserva Privada seeds are renowned for producing plants of uncompromising quality and yield.

Where Can I Buy Reserva Privada Cannabis Seeds?

You can get your hands on Reserva Privada Seeds right here at Zamnesia. Stocking a selection of feminized seeds, each strain offers a straightforward growing experience, with the possibility of abundant yields.

It is female cannabis plants that produce THC rich buds, while males don't. And, if male plants happen to pollinate the females, they will drastically reduce their quality and generosity. So unless you intend to breed your own strains, it's best to stick with fully feminized cannabis seeds.

What Are The Top 3 Cannabis Strains By Reserva Privada?

We know how difficult it can be to choose from an award-winning catalogue, so here are three of our favourites.

Strawberry Banana

The concentrates from this 70% indica strain have swept up a whole array of awards, so you know you're in for a good time. Bred by crossing Crockett's Banana Kush and Serious Seeds' strawberry phenotype of Bubble Gum, it is the most resinous strain Reserva Privada have ever produced.

If you're concerned about flavour, don't be! Strawberry Banana (as you can probably guess) tastes fantastic too! These fruity, tropical notes make for a refreshing yet relaxing smoke and fill the air with wonderful aromas. It will take between 9 and 10 weeks to complete the flowering phase, with an indoor yield of 500–550g/m².

OG #18

OG #18 is a sort of jacked-up version of OG Kush—and it's incredible. Recipient of 1st place in Hydro Spannabis 2011, 2nd Indica in the High Times Cannabis Cup 2009, and 3rd Indica in the High Times Cannabis Cup 2007, it's got a lot to boast about.

Flowering Time: 9-10 weeks

THC: Unknown

Flowering Type: Photoperiod

Bred from OG Kush and Chemdawg, it's got some impressive genetics. The #18 was chosen out of a staggering 40 OG Kush plants, for its sour taste and massive yields. An indica/sativa hybrid, whether you want stimulating head highs or a deep body stone, you can get it from OG #18. You can also expect 550–600g/m² of rock hard, trichome drenched bud, in as little as nine weeks—what's not to like?!

Skywalker Kush

This is another version of OG Kush on 'roids. Skywalker x OG Kush results in sky-high THC levels and monstrous yields. Pushing 600g/m², if you're not satisfied by this, then you're just greedy. Although, if you want to get as close to those numbers as possible, we recommend topping early.
