Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Sativa 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 Ethiopian

The ethiopian is a pure subtropical classic african sativa, of great value and interest for pure sativa lovers and for preservationists. It produces a classic african sativa phenotype: tall, vigorous, flexible, strongly branched plants with long node length. Excellent resistance against moisture, molds, wind and heat. The long flowering time is compensated by an excellent final yield (when is properly cultivated with strong light intensity and warm temperatures), and for its mental effect of great quality, highly appreciated by sativa lovers looking for the more active, sociable, kind and positive effects, always well focused, and without producing paranoia, mental or body heaviness. Earthy and woody african sativa aromas, with floral, musky and fermented citrus touches.
