Sativa Up North
Fast N’ Glorious builds on the success of Mandala #1, our signature outdoor strain for the north. A specially selected early mother from the Mandala #1 genetic lines was combined with the original South African strain, bringing together two proven Sativa pedigrees.
The goal was an even earlier onset of flowering without giving up the potency, flavour and medical qualities Mandala #1 is known for.
For growers facing shorter seasons or increasingly unreliable weather, every reliable outdoor Sativa is a valuable addition to the strain family.
Sativa for All
This exotic Sativa fattens up with long, lime-green colas packed with flavourful buds.
The flowers retain an open structure with a high calyx-leaf ratio, allowing better airflow when conditions turn humid and increasing resistance to mold.
There’s another reward at harvest time: those generous colas are remarkably easy to trim.

Building upon the success of Mandala #1, our signature outdoor strain for the north, Fast N’ Glorious takes hardy, fast-flowering Sativa genetics one step further. A specially selected early mother from the Mandala #1 genetic lines was combined with the original South African strain to create an exotic Sativa with an even earlier onset of flowering.
The Mandala #1 pedigree is valued for its wonderful aromas, potency and wide range of medical benefits, making it one of the few reliable medical strains from seed for outdoor cultivation in the Northern Hemisphere. Fast N’ Glorious preserves the upper-range potency and authentic flavour while bringing harvest forward, adding greater security when autumn weather becomes unpredictable.
This exotic Sativa remains easy to manage indoors in a grow tent. The lime-green colas quickly fatten up with flavourful buds. Plants respond well to topping, whether you want broad, bushy specimens outdoors, gorw in a SCROG setup, or prefer to keep height short. Left unpruned, their natural growth pattern also allows close planting in SOG from seed or cuttings.
A high calyx-to-leaf ratio and relatively open bud structure improve airflow and mold resistance while making the colas easy to trim. Fast N’ Glorious performs well in hot, cold and humid conditions, giving outdoor growers considerable flexibility across different climates. Odor during cultivation is not overpowering, which is another advantage where discretion matters.
Cultivation requires no special know-how. The plants are suitable for all levels of experience and adapt well to different growing mediums. Like all our genetics, Fast N’ Glorious has been optimized for organic cultivation and rewards straightforward plant care with an excellent crop.
The high is refreshing, expansive and long-lasting. Users describe it as more than simply clear-headed, calling the experience an “awakening” that can open new perspectives. It is especially suited to creative and social activities as well as more introspective or transcendental pursuits.
Reported benefits include:
- mood support
- anxiety relief
- improved sleep
- stress relief
- migraine relief
- nausea relief
Our organic cannabis seeds are fresh, fully ripened and handcrafted. Each batch is pre-tested for 100% germination and can be easily germinated directly in quality seedling soil.
In Europe, Compo Sana Seedling Mix is an excellent choice. Popular options in North America include Burpee Seed Starting Mix, Pro-Mix Organic Seed Starting Mix and Fox Farm Light Warrior Seed Starter.
Give the seed embryo the best chance to emerge from its shell. If you grow organically, investing in quality seedling soil is one of the simplest ways to get your plants off to a healthy start. We have seen many germination problems caused by peat pellets and Jiffy tabs, where the acidic pH can interfere with germination. Coco coir bricks and other compressed growing blocks can also result in poor germination rates.
There is no need to soak our seeds or use other pre-germination methods. We recommend planting them directly into seedling soil. We cannot accept responsibility for germination results when seeds are soaked in water or germinated in paper tissues.
WARNING: Do NOT lower the pH of your water with acids such as “pH-Down” products containing nitric or phosphoric acid. These can be fatal to young seedlings when growing in soil. We have used inexpensive vinegar to lower the pH of our water for 35 years. It is non-toxic and harmless to the plants when used correctly.
For soil cultivation, the correct water pH is 6.2–6.5. Please consult our Water & pH Guide for more information.

Grundsätzlich, super Shop, schnelle Abwicklung und sehr faire Preise. Dazu noch ein phantastischer Support. Zu den Pflanzen. Alle Samen sind gekeimt und wachsen prächtig (3 reguläre Samen wurden eingepflanzt) 2 von denen haben einen eher Sativa Wuchs, eine orientiert sich an den Indica Typ von der M#1. Alle top gesund und vital. Zur Info zwei wachsen auf dem Balkon eine Indoor. Bin sehr gespannt wie die sich entwickeln werden. Bis jetzt alles easy. Ich bin begeistert.

A very early flowering variety. Came into bloom in northern Germany at the end of July and was fully ripe and ready for harvest at the end of September. Lush growth The plants reached a height of 2 m 20 and grew lushly in width after topping. At harvest time the entire plant was covered from top to bottom with dense, heavy flowers. Very pleasant, uplifting, euphoric high that makes you active and creative. Super productive plant, no tendency to mold!

My favorite cannabis strain! It's a staple in my grow tent because I never want to run out. My friend and I call it Mandala#2 because it feels like an improvement of Mandala #1.
Same clean, uplifting, motivating high of Mandala #1 but excitement bring on a warm-chested euphoria! Fantastic for activities and socializing. It clears sinus pressure, anxiety and fatigue. I confirm the subtle aroma of dried apples and mint.

First trial with this strain last year was really satisfying, early flowering, delicious flavour and
an energetic sativa high makes it really recommended!

Sus plantas son espectaculares. Da gusto verlas!!

The plants are growing fast and strong, I had a quick germination in all seeds.

Fast N' Glorious

In May I started 6 Fast N' Glorious, 1 Novarine from Elite Seeds and 1 Sour Diesel from DNA. All seeds germinated. They all look strong and healthy. The 6 are going outside on June 20. They will be in either 7 or 15 gallon fiber pots with Ocean Forest, and some additional worm castings. The other two will remain indoors for cuttings for the fall.
Last year our weather turned bad in September and I lost all of the Mandala #1 (8 started, 6 females) and Eight Miles High (4 started, 3 females) to powdery mildew. I didn’t get any prevention in and by the time I considered it, it was too late. They were powerful plants, but were all too close together and the mildew prevailed. It was a very sad end of September. I hadn’t grown outside much since the 90’s so I actually forgot about the risk of mold. I don’t blame the seeds or Mandala, it was very humid mixed with rain for weeks and I did little to nothing to prevent it.
I still have 10 Satori seeds, 10 Mandala#1, 6 Eight Miles High, 10 Fast and Glorious and others from other places so I’ll keep trying until I get it right. The Satori’s will be indoors, I won’t take a chance with them.

I have not grown fast n' glorious yet.

Описание точно совпадает. После пролечки продавит любую толерантность, очень мощная сатива. Вернусь к нему ещё и еще, это на самом деле , быстро и славно.
The description is exactly the same. Will overcome any (THC) tolerance after curing, a very potent Sativa. I will return to it again and again, it's really "fast and glorious". (translation by Mandala Seeds)

Even with a few hours of light the plant production of resin still great. By smell I can say there's a lot of ISOBORNEOL and many other terpenes (like FELLANDREN= minty).
Isoborneol has antiviral properties, also is a potent herpes simplex type1 inhibitor (common labial-type). I loved the smell of minty-CAMPHOR and the creative clear-headed high that for sure is long lasting.

Pretty niceeeeeeee ;)

Всхожесть 100% при прорастании любит тепло и умеренную влажность,FNG самые первые показали пол , бодро зацвели 15-20 августа на 53 широте ! Было два фенотипа, один пурпурный с каменными шишками второй зелёный пушистый, листьев мало 30% некоторые возле соцветий в смоле.Рост и урожай средний(у меня) но достойный, эффект ясный энергичный для дневного применения. Ствол гнётся средне, ветки короткие крепкие и упругие.Не однократно пережили шторм и осенью -5 снег. Плесени не встретил. Аромат я не могу точно описать, очень душистый как магический другой мир по ощущению , я не меньше впечатлён ароматом. В начале развития нужна поддержка стебля, сперва тонкий и слабый но потом их просто не сломить. PS:перспективный живучий раннецветущий энергичный сорт для широт с коротким летом и осенью.
Germination 100%, during germination likes heat and moderate humidity. FNG was the very first to show sex, and bloomed vigorously on August 15-20 at 53°N ! There were two phenotypes: one purple with firm buds, the second green and fluffy, few leaves/30%, some near the buds covered in resin. Growth and yield average (for me) but good, clear and vigorous effect for daytime use. The stem bends medium, the branches are short, strong and resilient. More than once FNG survived the storm and in the autumn -5° C (with) snow. Did not encounter any mould. The aroma I can not accurately describe, very fragrant like a magical other world according to the experience, I am no less impressed by the fragrance. In the beginning of its development FNG needs stem support, at first thin and weak but then you just can't break them. PS: a promising, resilient, early flowering, vigorous variety for latitudes with short summers and autumns.

Grew three females in record rain this season. All three were very resilient and healthy. Two of the three turned purple. Not a requirement for me, but they looked cool. I harvested in late September. The keeper is something special. I'm using her in edibles. Did not make them terribly "potent", but I get such an incredible uplift in mood. Visited the grand canyon (no railing) and a Joshua tree Forrest in Arizona during sunset, a couple of hours after consuming the edible, and it was such a spiritual experience. I felt in control of my thoughts and emotions, but elevated at the same time. It's hard not to appreciate the beauty of life in such moods and Fast and Glorious allowed me to escape the stressors of life that would have interfered with such an experience. I will definitely be hunting through more seeds. Thank you Mandala!

This strain was one of the quickest plants I´ve ever grow, with very good aroma and taste, and some purple colours in late flowering period.The effect is smooth and pleasant, not too much energetic sativa and not too much indica sedative effects, it´s a balanced strain, you can think. Lots of resin, you can make good hash of it.
It´s a winner in wet/cold climates, the plant was harvested since late August! and during early mid September in North Spain.
Thank you and congratulations to all Mandala team!!

Really good vigour as you'd expect from Mandala. I have experience with the Mandala 1 variety and you can see the similarities with F 'n G... some more 'indica' types that have shorter nodes and wider leaves, I culled these but they may suit your set up better. Flowering is initiated pretty quickly at 50 north, certainly faster than Mandala 1 and progresses swiftly as the daylight hours fall away. Found a pretty 'sativa' plant that showed pink pistils and had a floral/mint aroma. Cured into some really happy, activating herbs that lets me do stuff in a very calm but unhurried way, sinks into the body slightly by the end.
A very good seed line for the northern gardeners where bad weather can take a heavy toll, these plants show good resistance and have a potent, pleasing effect. Top stuff all round!

The strongest balsamic-minty scent ever smelled in cannabis with hint of sweet fruity aroma. Wow.
Inhales deeply, now exhale. again inhales deeply, now exhale. Can you feel it? This is aromatherapy. True refreshing high, clear-headed and powerful. Perfect ally for transcendental pursuits. A high calyx-leaf ratio and high mold resistance like her mother.. FAST and GLORIOUS? Yes!
Gran trabajo y felicidades!

Seedlings shot up above all others. Will enjoy watching them grow!
