Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 100%

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 Afghani Gold

We used our Afghan as a mother and our Skunk no.1 for pollen production to create our Afghani Gold. By using the Skunk no.1 we were able to improve yield. She is a 90% Indica with a high level of THC. She is a short, Christmas tree-like plant. Afghani Gold is highly tolerant to irrigation and fertilization. Seeds will usually rise above ground within 3 to 4 days. There is little to no variation between individual phenos, especially when it comes to yield. The main buds are stretched, thick and solid. Side buds are also solid, but small and few in numbers. Afghan has a good flower to leaf ratio. She has very few leaves, but lots of calyxes covered in trichomes. She is therefore easy to trim. When grown to fruition she smells like grade quality Afghani hashish. Afghan has a sweet, fruity and earthy flavor and has a narcotic, Indica buzz. Medicinal value: nausea, insomnia and spasms. 90% Indica. Genotype: Afghani #1 x Skunk no.1. Hashish aroma and fruity, earthy flavor. Highly tolerant to irrigation and fertilization. Short stalked and one main, stretched bud. Medicinal value: nausea, insomnia and spasms. Narcotic high. Potential THC level: high. Flowering time indoor: 8-9 weeks Harve
