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 Merlot OG

Merlot OG also known as Grape Valley Kush is a cross between Grape Kush and SFV O.G. It is an indica dominant variety which performs well both Indoor and Outdoor and takes around 55-65 Days The SFV O.G. popularized by The Cali Connection Seed Company is a staple of almost every garden in southern California. The circulated clone from these aoutstanding souvenirs provides one of the most succulent and sweet O.G. varieties available these days. With yields being on the lower side, we combined her with the robust Grape Kush male to add girth and strength. The result is a fuel-like pine-heavy smell with huge and dense buds. The trichome coverage is like powdered sugar and the trim is quick and easy. Extractors will see fantastic results on all solvent and non-solvent concentrates. Expect around 450 grams per meter squared
