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 Bob 87

Bob 87 by Purple City Genetics is an exclusive, high-end cultivar crafted for discerning collectors and enthusiasts of contemporary Sativa genetics. Built on the cross of Bob Hope (Super Lemon Haze × Durban Biscotti) and 1987, this strain carries pronounced Sativa traits while maintaining impressive efficiency. Despite its clear Sativa orientation, Bob 87 stands out with a relatively fast flowering period of approximately 70–80 days (around 10–12 weeks), making it particularly appealing to growers seeking performance-driven yet expressive genetics. Aromatically, Bob 87 delivers a bold and layered terpene profile. Sharp sour citrus notes blend with sweet accents, gassy undertones and a subtle cookie-dough nuance, creating a complex and easily recognisable bouquet. The experience is completed by a strong, clear and energising effect that distinctly separates it from more conventional varieties. Lineage: Bob Hope (Super Lemon Haze × Durban Biscotti) × 1987 Genetics: Sativa Flowering Time: 10–12 weeks Aroma: sour citrus, sweet, gassy, cookie dough notes THC: up to 30%
