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 Maple Kush

A great take on getting better yields from a medical Kush Crop-with less time in the veg cycle when growing larger, high-yielding individual plants or looking to get more out of your crop space on a per-stem basis. At the same time re-working the Kush has added some new flavors to the buds; helping create a more distinguished harvest while retaining the trademark Kush intensity in the buzz, from head to toe. Maple Leaf Indica is an old school Afghani indica that creates fast yielding stout and syrupy buds that can tough-it-out in a wide variety of growing conditions. When crossed to the Kush, it created better yields, while retaining a lot of the Kush characteristics many med growers and smokers are accustomed to looking for. The Original Skunk is a vigor-packed powerhouse that gives the Maple Kush faster growth-helping growers from spending too long in veg and promotes a better ratio of calyx to leaf versus more typical Kush strains. The cross to Original Skunk also helps retain pungency in the bouquet while gearing Maple Kush to be more adaptable to a wider range of growing environments, including greenhouses. Finding a good mother for future gardens should not pose a problem whe
