Nigerian Silver is a sativa-dominant hybrid with a roughly 70/30 split, born from a cross between Nigerian landrace genetics and Haze. It’s prized as much for its striking appearance as for its clear, uplifting potential: dense, long pepper-shaped emerald-green buds, threaded with thick orange pistils and a frosty veil of silvery-white trichomes that glitter in the light.
Crack a nug and you’re greeted with a spicy, skunky menthol aroma, lifted by bright floral notes. The flavor matches the scent—menthol and skunk at the forefront, supported by earthy flowers and woody pine that linger on the palate.
The effect arrives quickly, delivering focused energy and motivation that sharpen the mind while a gentle body relaxation keeps you grounded. With THC typically in the high teens (about 19 to 20 percent) and only trace CBD, Nigerian Silver is often sought for relief from stress, anxiety, depression or mood swings, chronic fatigue, and chronic pain, all while preserving clarity and drive.
