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 Patchouli Pupil

Patchouli is a crazy smell. To me, it really bothers me, for whatever reason. I find it overpowering and nauseating, and no offense to any of you who may wear it! The cool thing though, is I have been able to make a plant that smells just like it! Even though it’s not my favorite smell, it’s unique and powerful, and gets a strong reaction, so I like it for that! While hunting through some PuTang F2 seeds I made, combining two different versions of the PuTang line (two different Tangie phenos, same Pupil on both sides… I’ve made many PuTang versions before releasing the cup winning version!) I found a very peculiar Patchouli Pheno in these F2 seeds. I then crossed this back to the Star Pupil for these feminized seeds to make Patchouli Pupil! These plants have insanely dense, frosty, purple, pungent flowers. 2/3 of the plants population have this gnarly rank Patchouli smell, and the other 1/3 have more of a Pupily smell! In a sense, this is almost like a v3 remake of Grape Pupil, but switch the grape for patchouli… similar formula but different selections for different results! These are super unique. The high is strong and balanced. A little more “indica” feeling than the Grape Pupi
