Sagarmatha Seeds

Sagarmatha Seeds is a pioneering Dutch seed bank founded in 1999 by a team of dedicated breeders. The name 'Sagarmatha' is the Nepalese name for Mount Everest, reflecting their philosophy of striving for the highest quality and most potent genetics. They are renowned for their early and significant work in stabilizing and feminizing cannabis seeds, making them more accessible and reliable for growers worldwide. **Key Contributions & Philosophy:** * **Feminization Pioneers:** Sagarmatha was one of the very first commercial seed banks to successfully release a full line of stabilized, 99.9% female seeds, revolutionizing home cultivation by eliminating the guesswork of male plants. * **Stable Genetics:** Their breeding focus has always been on creating stable, predictable, and vigorous strains. They employ meticulous selection processes over multiple generations to lock in desirable traits. * **Notable Strains:** They are the originators of several legendary and award-winning strains, most notably **Mataro Blue** (a potent, blue-hued indica) and **S.A.G.E. (Sativa Afghani Genetic Equilibrium)**, a highly regarded and powerful sativa-dominant hybrid. Other classics include Early Girl, Buddha, and Nepalese Jam. * **Breeding Approach:** Their catalog often features hybrids that combine classic landrace genetics (like Nepalese and Afghani) with modern Dutch hybrids, aiming for a balance of flavor, effect, and robust growth characteristics. While less hyper-visible in the modern marketing-driven scene, Sagarmatha maintains a respected status as an 'O.G.' breeder whose foundational work in seed technology and classic strain development helped shape the industry. They continue to operate, offering their time-tested genetics to cultivators.
