Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide
Indica 30%Sativa 70%
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 Metal Dragon
Metal Dragon is a combination of the now defunct Dutch Flowers Metal Haze with a well worked heirloom Burmese line. Dutch Flowers bred an indoor-friendly Haze strain that consistently delivered superior potency had been the very focus of Dutch Flowers breeding efforts since its inception. To that end, the team had collected and grown enough clones and crosses to setup a small Haze museum. Synthesizing the best Haze genetics into one line posed a considerable challenge. In early Dutch Flowers trials, proven clones passed down their potency genes on to the next generations using an unacceptable, unpredictable domino pattern. To develop a superior seed line, males were tested the hard way, growing out their offspring to recognize the best possible pollen source. Winning donors pollinated their choicest females, and their offspring was then heavily selected at the second generation. Recombinant individuals displaying the desired potency, phenotype, flowering and yield traits were identified and inbred into separate lines. Three years after the project begun, the resulting lines were finally blended, giving rise to Metal Haze, a hybrid that received high praise from skeptic industry tes
