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 Indigo Blue

Indigo Blue is our most reliable breeding “miracle worker,” passing on its excellent traits consistently to its progeny, both as clone mother and pollen donor. Even when IB was developed primarily for its use in breeding, it has of course proven an absolute pleasure to grow on its own as well, unconnected to any breeding programme. Since overall quality and vigour in crosses (F1) depends heavily on the intrinsic consistency and unrelatedness of the parental strains (P1), we worked to stabilize our star GCA strain growing out successive generations under intense selective inbreeding, and are now releasing the resulting IBL/IB as an auction-only item. Only 3 lots will be auctioned, so that winning bidders are afforded ample opportunity to recoup expenses by offering IB pure and crosses in subsequent C-Bay auctions. This way, DF preferred role as breeder and primary introductor is fulfilled, leaving dissemination and seedmaking to be carried out by growers self-appointed to the task. Our Bubblegum clone and Oregon Funk are two key components in IB, and we are pleased to have left ubiquitous Northern Lights, Skunk and Blueberry lines completely out of its composition to produce a quint
