Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 50%Sativa 50%

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 Bananaquin

Bananaquin is the unusual name given to the product of a union between an elite clone of the high CBD strain Harlequin and orgnkid's Banana Kush F9 male plant. It is a medicinal marijuana strain par excellence that produces a range of pheno-types for a many different applications. Bananaquin is an indica/sativa hybrid cannabis strain; Harlequin is 75% sativa and Banana Kush is indica-dominant. Bananaquin can be grown in all environments with indoor flowering taking 8 - 9 weeks to complete while outdoor-grown crops will be ready for the chop either in late September or in early October at the very latest in northern latitudes. The levels of both THC and CBD vary with the wide range of pheno-types produced but the ones with a higher proportion of CBD are more vigorous, faster growers with an unusual smell to the stems when rubbed, the best way to spot them. The aroma and taste of banana peel is quite pronounced with this plant but there is also a strong licorice accent along with that of new cassette-tape(!). The range of THC produced is 7% - 26% with CBD of 6% - 26%. The effects will clearly differ according to the exact ratios of cannabinoids but generally speaking it is a very cer
