Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide
Indica 70%Sativa 30%
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 Amethyst
Amethyst brings us a new rendition of purple cannabis. Using two modern variations on an old school profile, we have created a cross which blesses the grower with velvet dreams. The mother is a descendant of the Mendo Purps, a long-held Mendocino strain that derives its origins from Pakistani Chitrali purples from the past. It holds a spicy gas flavor with a tangy berry overtone. The Paki Chitral Kush is a stud, landrace male, with purple pods and stems, which we obtained from Ace Seeds. The structure is bushy and squat. Expect to see some more variation in structure in this F1 cross. Some seeds may take on the frosty Mendo look, while others may contribute more vigor with a raw landrace feel. 8 to 9 WEEKS
