Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 100%

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 Canadian Kush

This plant is a cross between Purple Kush from California by a Special K from Canada. Particularly versatile plant that gives really good results both indoors and outdoors. It is suitable to grow in spaces with limited height. Its leaves are short and wide with a classic Indica pattern and usually taken dark green shades grading to purple at the end of flowering. It makes dense buds compact and completely snowed giving very high performance. The scent of this plant reminiscent to pine and has an earthy flavor with hints of grape that is unmistakable. We recommend organic growing to maximize its aroma and flavor. It has a high level of THC that gives a euphoric entry but quickly becomes a sensation rather narcotic, being valued at medicinal level for illness like depression, insomnia and pain relief. Its effect is strong and can lasts up to four hours in people with low tolerance levels, and is usually characterized by its relaxing effects. 2nd // Spannabis Cup 2013; Extraction category. 100% indica 0% sativa THC: High CBD: Low Genotype: Purple Kush x Special Kush.
