Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide
Indica 50%Sativa 50%
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 Crystal Gelato
Big Head Seeds present Crystal Gelato, a feminised cannabis variety based on Gelato, a clone-only cultivar originating with San Francisco's Cookies Fam, a Sativa/Indica hybrid that has gained nationwide fame in the US and is now conquering Europe with its sensational flavour. Crystal Gelato is easy to grow, although if it will require a little extra care to express its full potential and give a final harvest that will generously repay our efforts. This variety produces hard, solid buds densely coated in sticky, aromatic trichomes and when cultivated indoors will be ready to harvest after 8 to 9 weeks flowering at 12/12, taking on a purple colour towards the end. When grown outdoors, plants will be ready in October, giving a high yield of tasty sun grown buds. The impressive quantity of resin makes Crystal Gelato an excellent choice for hash makers or extractors wanting to make cannabis concentrates of any type. Testing at anywhere from 20 to 25% THC, its effect is highly potent, with a euphoric high followed by a relaxed and creative mood. When consumed, the effect of Crystal Gelato is first felt at the cerebral level before evolving towards a sensation of physical relaxation that
