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 Cafe Racer

Cafe Racer might not share the popularity of its parent strains, but that doesn’t mean this hybrid has anything less to offer. Stemming from two top-tier US strains, Cafe Racer was created by a Barcelona-based seed bank and appeals to users looking for balanced effects and a unique, sweet coffee aroma. Keep reading to learn all there is to know about the Cafe Racer strain. History of the Cafe Racer Cannabis Strain Cafe Racer is attributed to Blimburn Seeds, a Barcelona-based cannabis seed company. Founded in 2002 with a mission to redefine cannabis genetics, Blimburn Seeds is known for original strain creations like Mamba Negra and Santa Muerte. However, in recent years the bank has developed a name for itself by bringing US genetics to Europe. Blimburn Seeds claims to source clones directly from the US and then bring them to Europe to produce seeds. Sour Diesel, GG4, GSC, Zkittlez, and Gelato are just some of the high-profile US strains that Blimburn Seeds has made available to home growers. Genetic Lineage of Cafe Racer Cafe Racer was bred by Blimburn Seeds from Granddaddy Purple and GSC, resulting in a mostly sativa-dominant hybrid. Granddaddy Purple is arguably one of the world
