DNA Genetics, based in Amsterdam since 2004, has been growing ever since its inception and is now even selling a clothing line worldwide. Its focus, however, remains firmly fixed on producing high-quality seeds such as L.A. Confidential, a multiple-award-winning pure indica dating back to 2004. This plant’s fantastic genes come from an Afghani landrace and an old school, killer Afghani strain from Southern California. It’s often thought to be related to the O.G. Kush family, but this is a myth.

Though this plant is much imitated, there are two real L.A. Confidential phenotypes, one of which is slightly sturdier than the other. Pre-vegging is advised with this plant and doing so will maximize the amount of bud you’ll get from harvest – expect around 400 grams of dried, cured bud per square yard of grow space. Both phenotypes will finish between 45 and 56 days. Don’t be afraid to remove some of the fan leaves towards the end of the flowering period, as this will allow more light to reach the lower buds and stimulate their growth.

A huge part of L.A. Confidential’s popularity is its ability to deliver a knock-down stone. True L.A. Confidential buds are lime green with a hint of purple and give off a piney, skunky and somewhat fleeting aroma. The extremely calm mind and body effect lasts much longer, and is complimented by a psychedelic heady trip that leaves a huge impression on the smoker and shows why this strain has such a great reputation.
