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.

Growing up in Tottenham, London, I experienced smoking Jamaican weed earlier and in larger quantities than any other type of marijuana. There are more Jamaicans living in London than any other city in Jamaica, except Kingston and if they don’t live in Brixton then they probably live in Tottenham. For us, if you went to Finchley or West ways it was Thai, if it was hash it was Pakistani from Howard (RIP) and it was fantastic hash but if it was from Tottenham or South of the river then it was Jamaican flat press and
