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 Kali

For many experienced growers, this is the Sativa strain for excellence. This genotype is the result of crossing two sativa landraces, improved and stabilised by CBD Seeds to make it produce long and compact buds, increasing the final production and maintaining its resistance to mildew. This virtue is essential if we plant it outdoors, because flowering lasts until November and may coincide with the autumnal rains in the Mediterranean countries. When it is cultivated indoors, we recommend switching the light cycle to 12 hours no more than one week after the appearance of the cotyledons. If the growing period is long, it can get too tall, reaching two meters in height., because it gets bigger and bigger during the blooming time. It could be a problem it if gets too close to the light. Flowering indoor: 11-12 weeks Outdoor harvest: November Production: Average Genotype: 90% Sativa Phenotype: Sativa Effect: Strong, intense Smell: Spicy, incense Taste: Citrus with metal shades
