Malawi effects are mostly energizing.
Malawi potency is higher THC than average.
Malawi is a pure sativa strain that comes from the Salima region of Malawi in southeast Africa. This strain has an extremely long flowering time, sometimes up to 120 days. Always worth the wait, Malawi produces long and resin-coated buds, a great smoke for any occasion.

Malawi strain reviews(81)
I'm exploring this one, I did test deeply 2 phenos, first one is New Malawi Killer, this thing is a must-try for those with any digestive issue, no munchies, even could help to quit eating between hours, you will eat, but for some reason you don't think about it till your body really ask for it. The high is cerebral, the more potent thing I've come across in 40 years loving cannabis, you will feel some dizziness first, it would last few minutes but can be hard, so do it in a safe place, your sense of balance could be hard affected, specially if you mix it with alcohol, you'll be 100% wasted for hours, much better at least your first times to not mix with nothing and explore it for herself, if you mind the dosage and show respect, it will be the more potent and at the same time CLEAN high you could experiment, pure sativa game, euphoric, happy, ultra aware of your surroundings and your body, no coming down, the landing is first class TOP QUALITY, 4+ hours ride granted. Almost no smell while vaping/growing, it smells like lemon tree flowers, earthy and hash, but mainly lemon flowers, vaping/smoking smell and taste the same, while smoking smell much more hashy. The other pheno is my favorite, is more lemon and fruity smell while growing, is faster (from seed it could be ready in 120 days, you could give it more, but it gets so narcotic IMO), it can't support her owns flowers (at least main ones), they are huge, and not typical sativa "floofy" flowers, these have fair meat there, and it stacks nicely between nodes, you will feel it when grinding it. It hit as fast as it gets in your lungs, you feel first something back in your eyes (almost like an itchy/pressure), you will end identify it with the euphoric coming to you, is the more CLEAN thing I ever consumed, again, you can't mix it, you can't do anything dangerous under the effects, this thing is not for every day. I never felt something killing literally all bad/sad things from my head like that, it cut over all in seconds leaving you happy almost instant and last 4+ hours, with 150% of your brain available, and you feel like it was your mother taking care of you, while/after landing you are going to feel HAPPY, mind the dosage and explore it, is in a league of her own, I call it "Too good", you know... when is so good that turns dangerous (: For sure Malawi is a cannabinoids bomb, a must have for sativa lovers and medical research.
I HAVE FOUND MY STRAIN! I consider Malawi not so much a recreational herb as My Spiritual Ally From the Plant Kingdom.
Malawi is everything you hope cannabis will be. Music sounds good, food tastes great, your bodily senses come alive and ordinary routines like stretching, massaging your feet and washing your face feel AMAZING. At the same time, your mind sparkles with curiosity and clarity; my first time out I was able to absorb myself in a creative project that I had been putting off for a while because I just wasn’t “feeling it,” but which I now was able to connect with emotionally and aesthetically.
Malawi takes you to a place of 100% honesty with yourself — a place where you can look at your life without fear, shame or wishful thinking, and see clearly what improvements can be made. Malawi gives me the freedom of mind to dream big about my future, while at the same time giving me the clarity to plan, in zero-bullshit terms, how I can achieve those dreams. This is definitely a problem-solver’s strain (and probably also great for playing games of strategy like chess or go, if that's your thing.)
The odor of this flower is wild, strong, earthy, mythic. Definitely smells like something that would grow in Middle Earth, Wakanda or in the magical forest of Princess Mononoke. One whiff of it and you know your nose is plugging directly into some serious Ancient Vegetable Intelligence.
A very smooth, pleasant launch. While some strains might make you feel like you’ve been shot out of a cannon, Malawi lifts you up gently. After vaping a tiny amount, I felt like I was taking off in a solar-powered glider, easing out onto warm thermal updrafts lofting me up into a wide and welcoming blue sky.
Shortly thereafter I had a vision of a female pixie - who looked like young BernNadette Stanis, (the actor who played Thelma on the 70s sitcom Good Times, whom as a kid I had a celebrity crush on) dressed in an amazing green furry faery costume, fluttering around me on emerald green butterfly wings, urging me to smile and relax. And I certainly did! I was suffused with a sense of warm, happy arousal which, as a person living with Depression, I feel rarely, and was most welcome.
At the risk of sounding like a hippie cliche: I live in an apartment overlooking a park, and at a certain point around sunset I looked out at all the people jogging, strolling, walking their dogs, and I felt a crazy Walt Whitman-esque love for EVERYBODY. Cynics may snort at this, but if you’ve been there, you know what I’m talking about. The human brain contains many programs, and one of those programs is a feeling of familial love for ALL your fellow humans. You don’t need cannabis to launch this program, but if you’re stuck in day-to-day stress loops, it certainly helps.
Negatives: Cottonmouth comes on strong, so have some water or a tasty beverage close at hand. Your balance will be off so don’t try riding a bicycle or “bouldering” at the rock climbing gym.
Incredibly, this was $10 a gram (the lowest price point) at my local dispensary. I purchased a few other “top shelf” strains (Golden Goat, Holy Grail) for more than double the price, but they did not compare to this humble yet mighty Malawi. Apparently it’s not an easy flower to keep in stock, so if your local dispensary has it, do yourself a favor and snatch some up!
Top quality sativa landrace. The high is very heavy and wonderfully bliss filled. Energy. Fairly psychedelic. Using it to develop myown personal medical strain by crossing it with some other heavy hitters. Crosses very well with other plants, with wide genetic variability in the f1s for further refinement. My first f1s seem to be a bit more heady and less body. The f2s I have going now bred back to the father(purple sunset lilac diesel crossed with vanilla latte female), are exhibiting long stretch and flowering periods beyond the f1s despite being bred twice to a faster flowering strain. So expect odd things if used in a breeding project but with most of the f2s already being very similar with 1 out of five having any significant variations in structure ,growth patterns, flowering times etc. interesting strain to get to know and pull apart. I just smoked some of the f1 cross and my brain is focused and my body super light but I have no desire to move. Euphoria. Strong enough to stop my panic attacks and re center me to continue my day.
I provide commentary on the crosses in case it helps people when they come across them what they might expect as it is probably found in more crosses than in its original forms, or if they decide to use it in their own crosses.
