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 New York Power Diesel

Our N.Y.P.D. is an f1 hybrid of our long honoured Sativa Mexicana and an Aurora indica that was especially stabilized for this radical mix. The heavy, greasy narcotic effects of the Aurora Indica beautifully cut the edge of the crispy, speedy effects of the Sativa Mexicana. The resulting terpenoids are shockingly powerful; diesel aroma and lemony fuel flavour, hence the name. This strain has long stems with surprisingly tight bud structure. Yields are good but not outstanding. Height: tall Effect: High - energising THC-Content: strong; 15 bis 24% Flowering weeks: 11 or fewer weeks Yield (S.O.G.): 400 bis 500g Difficulty: moderate
