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 Candy Crepe

Lineage Receiver | Dessert Runtz #5 Lineage Donor | Heavy Z Strain Type | Indica Leaning Notes | Cherry Glaze, Creamy Vanilla, Gas, Powdered Sugar Height | Medium Yield | Medium Days Flower | 60 Best Climate | Indoor, Outdoor Growers Profile | Advanced (medium) About Candy Crepe expresses a balanced hybrid morphology with symmetrical branching, medium stature, and dense inflorescences that mature into elongated, tapering colas. The cultivar forms a thick coat of capitate-stalked trichomes and demonstrates excellent glandular density even on secondary bracts. Foliage tends to show moderate internodal length, broad-oval leaflets, and the potential for lavender or rose-tinted pigmentation during late anthesis due to anthocyanin accumulation. Growing Information The volatile profile integrates the high-monoterpene fraction typical of ZBX with the cream-confection and fruit ester chemistry of Dessert Runtz #5. Dominant compounds include limonene, linalool, and β-caryophyllene, supported by myrcene, nerolidol, and ocimene. These molecules contribute to a multilayered aromatic structure that reads as candied citrus, spun sugar, and faint floral resin. The cannabinoid spectrum is typified
