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 Cantaloupe Skunk

Afghan x (Acapulco Gold x Columbian Gold) Background: Cantaloupe Skunk is a rare pheno of Mendocino Joe's Skunk. One of the first Skunks bred in the late 70's in Southern California, by Sacred Seeds. The only low odour pheno we've ever found in this strain. True old school weed! The ISP spent 32 years, locking her down. Both pheno's of her are very resinous, low odour, and similar high types. She is easy to grow indoors and outdoors, either single cola style, or topped and grown as a shorter, wider bush. Sativa dominant, with a very social / feel good vibe. Great for a day at the beach, the lake, a walk in the park, or any type of social gathering. A solid 8 on anyone's potency scale. Enjoyable, intense, but not overpowering. She just brightens your day, all the way around. Indoors: veg 30 days (min) / 45 days is optimal, clones require a veg of 10 days (min) / Flowering time 58 - 65 days / Indoor Height: 3' to 3.75 ' / Indoor yield: 2.5 to 3.5 oz per plant (min). Good air exchange and low humidity (less than 55 %) in flowering are a plus. For pest and/or disease control, she tolerates neem oil very well. Outdoors: finishes in late Sept. / Height: 4.5' to 6' / Outdoor yield 7 oz to
