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 Ancient Orange

This cross produces giant plants with very frosty, tropical orange-scented spear-shaped flowers. The Ancient Orange is a narrow-leaf-dominant cultivar which does best when given plenty of room to stretch out, although it can also yield remarkably well in small indoor gardens. These plants can get truly massive. Flavor profiles include mango, orange peel, blueberry, and ripe cantaloupe. Flowering time: 9-10 Weeks Harvest outdoors October 15-31
