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 Black Cow

Black Cow is a mostly indica variety produced in the high country of Colorado in late 2011. A beautiful aromatic and stout Coffee Kush (Pre 98 Bubba Kush x White Hash Plant) was bred to the selected male White HP Bx (White x White Hash Plant) - both from earlier Top Dawg Seeds. Named after the famous Steely Dan tune of the same name due to her color contrast between the darker foliage and the white trichome-covered flowers. The lineage of this one on paper is outstanding and when grown out she did not disappoint; boasting her shorter stockier structure, beautiful dark green glossy leaves that fade to a slight purple as she flowers along with dense trichome-laden flowers with a super seductive smell and flavor profile. That profile was creamy Kush, spicy hash, and a little lemon fuel on the backend. There weren't many seeds of this one made so it didn't make it out very far. There are still a few seeds of this one remaining
