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 Buffalo Breath

Buffalo Breath is derived from Mendobreath F1 fems of Gage Green Genetics. I had S1'd a pheno reminiscent of caramel and cat saliva that was bittersweet wretched, and sifted through that seedpool of s1 for consistency. But one was completely different in stature and aroma than the rest, with frosty fan leaves and stems that turned purple. Preserved it for the aroma which was minty puppy breath with hints of diesel and cardamom seed, kind of reminiscent of Mr Nice Black Widow in terms of the type of diesel and spice. I crossed this to a male White Phoam that smelled of vinegary or acrid dirt and butterscotch on the stem rub, which was also very sticky. Buffalo Breath has been F2'd, S1'd and BX'd, and outcrossed further. The clone kept around as a mother for breeding as it is extremely potent. Purple stems. The Buffalo Breath is mostly indica however gives an uplifting and very euphoric high, a warm cozy blanket without making you lazy, almost like headband strains but on the body - great for tension, depression and nerve pain. Used in a lot of projects from Treeheart as it is loved dearly for it's effects, aroma and vigor. Large rocky knuckled buds if grown in 1/2gal and up pots. Go
