Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 30%Sativa 70%

Indica, sativa and hybrid are a retail shopping convention — not a reliable guide to genetics or effects. When researchers analysed 89,923 commercial samples across six states, these labels did not predict a plant’s terpene or cannabinoid profile, and a genome-wide study found sativa- and indica-labelled plants to be genetically indistinct (PLOS ONE 2022; Nature Plants 2021). The labels are so fluid that AK-47, a hybrid, won “Best Sativa” at the 1999 Cannabis Cup and “Best Indica” four years later. For an accurate, genetics-true picture, see the chemotype above.

About A5 Haze x Papua New Guinea

This powerhouse genetic is built around the legendary A5 Haze from the late 1980s—personally selected by Neville and carefully preserved through the years by Karma and YoSammy. The elite A5 Haze was then pollinated by a diverse selection of over 30 Papua New Guinea sativa males, resulting in an exceptionally vigorous and high-yielding hybrid. With an estimated 80% sativa dominance, this cultivar delivers strong growth, significant stretch, and an extended flowering period. Phenotypes showing a touch of NL#5 influence tend to flower faster and are the most practical choice for indoor cultivation. In contrast, the more Haze- and PNG-dominant expressions truly shine outdoors, especially in tropical and subtropical environments. Effect-wise, this strain has the potential to hit extremely hard, producing intense, psychedelic, and deeply introspective sativa effects. Some phenotypes also introduce a noticeable body component, adding weight and occasional sedation to the otherwise soaring cerebral high.
