Sativa-Dominant Hybrid
Maui Wowie
Maui Wowie (also known as Maui Waui or Mowie Wowie) is a legendary sativa-dominant landrace-derived strain that originated on the Hawaiian island of Maui in the 1960s–70s. Grown in volcanic, Pacific island soil, it was one of the first strains to boast notably elevated THC levels (~20%) for its era. Its tropical pineapple aroma, high-energy euphoria, and creative, uplifting effects have made it a globally recognized classic for over five decades. With an 80:20 sativa-to-indica ratio, it is prized as a daytime strain that energizes without overwhelming.
