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 Balboa

True to its name, this OG packs one hell of a punch, even for the Apollo Creeds of the smoking world. The terpenes on this are strictly old school OG lemon gassy funk, and are loud enough to require extra noise control! The flavors are absolutely amazing and you won’t want to stop smoking this one, but be warned, one solid hit from this mighty hybrid and you might be left seeing double
