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.

Sublimely beautiful and famed for sheer cliff faces with astonishing elevations, Hunza is situated between two of Central Asia’s most famous production centres for charas, namely the Hindu Kush and Xinjiang. In Hunza, cannabis is cultivated by farmers principally for culinary use, the seeds being an essential source of protein and fats in the mountain diet. Toasting seeds with wheat is a custom villagers in Hunza share with Chitralis and Afghans, who likewise regard cannabis seeds as imparting heat to the body, for that reason consuming them during winter.
