Exploring Kuchlak: A Hidden Gem Near Quetta
At an elevation of 1680 meters above sea level and located at 30°N, Kuchlak is an old fashion town near Quetta with a fascinating heritage. Known for its stark climate, the town experiences hot, dry summers and cold, dry winters, with temperatures plummeting as low as -19°C in the colder months. During a visit to this remarkable place, we had the pleasure of meeting Kaka Bader, a local resident who has been preserving his family heirloom for generations.


Kaka inherited a distinct cannabis variety called Sah Dana —“King Seed” in his language—from his ancestors, who originally received it from the Khan of Kalat, the historic rulers of Balochistan. These heirloom seeds, Kaka explained, are superior to common commercial varieties, yielding robust and successful crops. As he shared his story, it became evident that Kaka Bader is not just an ordinary backyard Hash farmer, but a guardian of a legacy deeply rooted in the tradition.

We were in awe of the sheer size and quality of Kaka’s plants. Towering up to 15 feet in height, they boasted narrow-wide leaves in expression, abundant flowers, and a creeping aesthetic that was as visually striking as it was functional. Kaka proudly shared how these plants are resilient against all weather conditions, from strong winds to fierce storms. Remarkably, he uses no cages or supports for his plants, as he believes they should thrive independently.

“If a plant cannot endure the challenges of nature,” Kaka remarked, “it is not worthy of my garden.”

The heirlooms are not only resilient but also exceptional hash plants, prized for their heavy trichome production and distinctive structure. With abundant flowering sites and a uniquely beautiful form, they stand out as a dedication of generations past. These plants embody a rare combination of aesthetics, productivity, and hardiness.

Beautiful plants and great write up! I love to explore heirloom varieties. The effects can be unmatched. I would be interested in seeing how some of those would do outside from spring to early fall here in the Eastern side of Washington state.!!
