Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 50%Sativa 50%

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 Lemon Candy

A predominantly Sativa hybrid, Lemon Candy is born from the crossing resulting from our own selections of HOG and NYCD. The result is a hybrid with a strong structure, medium yield (can reach up to 400 grams per square metre without much effort). When growing this plant, we must pay special attention to any light stress situation, as we have observed that this affects it, and often stops the formation of flowers, considerably diminishing production. This is a variety where a complex aroma predominates, where citrus scents mingle with sweet part brought the crossing by the mother HOG, and this may vary from one individual to another, where at the end of the flowering period some sweet skunk touches appear above the aromas. The effect is of medium strength, being active at the start, staying until the end, where the party Indica part appears providing a physical low that continues until the end of the effect. We recommend extractions with this variety, not so much for the yield we can gather, but for its quality, where all these characteristics are accentuated and over time eventually becoming one of our favourite varieties when doing dry extractions
