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 Mendocino Skunk

Choice of Legends (Hybrid)… Mendocino Skunk, developed in collaboration with Chong’s Choice, is a well rounded combination of sativa and indica to produce a good yield plant that is easy to grow and delivers a delightful user experience. The Mendocino Skunk is inspired by a meeting of great cannabis traditions from California’s Emerald Triangle and Holland’s Amsterdam coffeeshop scene. Mendocino county sits on California’s north coast and its name has been associated with great weed since the 1960s. The perfect climate and a community knowledge base has made it a breeding ground for quality cannabis. For this exciting hybrid project we chose to combine the essence of Mendocino with the best Dutch genetics from the Paradise Seeds vault and we are very pleased with the results. This plant is shorter and bushier than many varieties which makes it a good option for the beginner, although experienced growers will appreciate the ease of growth and pleasant all round qualities. A good addition to the indoor grow setup, Mendocino Skunk is a stable plant that will grow to a medium size so a good option if your grow room space is limited.
