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 Guayaba

Guayaba is the result of a collaboration between BSF Seeds seedbank and the US breeder Mike Angelloti, who created the famous cannabis cup "Emerald Cup". Guayaba Marijuana by BSF Seeds: fast and vigorous indica with a sweet guava flavor It is the encounter between Sherbert, Afghani and Hashplant resulting in a plant of Indica dominance, with a fast and vigorous growth. It develops a pine-shaped structure with numerous secondary branches characteristic of Sativa genetics. In about 5 weeks of flowering, the compact, resinous and shiny looking buds are ready to harvest. Guayaba offers an abundant yield both indoors and outdoors. It produces very strong odours so the use of a carbon filter is recommended during cultivation. It offers earthy aromas of vanilla, guava and chocolate, where in the mouth the sweet guayaba juice is appreciated with a delicate vanilla and earthy undertone.
