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 Deep Mandarin

This marijuana variety comes from the cross between the awarded Sugar Black Rose with a clone called Carmen. Carmen stand out for its intense citric aroma, reminiscent of mandarins, with 8.5% THC and 12.5% CBD. These features, combined with those of SBR, are perfect to use Deep Mandarin as medicinal strain. The structure of the plants is compact and well branched, very similar to SBR and growing to medium height. Deep Mandarin is ripe after 55-60 days of flowering, developing round, compact and frosty flowers. THC:CBD ratios range from 1:1 to 1:3, with some phenotypes showing 4%THC and 15% CBD. Thus, we have a wide range of therapeutical effects in a single strain. The smell and taste are clearly reminiscent of mandarins with SBR notes, relaxing and sweet
