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 Purple Zebra

Breeding Information: This polyhybrid was a breeder personal experiment to add a Thai type to a Afghani and Mexican landrace hybrid with the results being better than expected. The Mazar x Guerrero F1 in this cross was the ‘swami k’ cut which was a bit more in the sativa end of the spectrum in both flowering time and effect. It was pollinated with a powdery mildew resistant male of swami’s standards. Known Phenotypes: Afghani,Central American,and Thai. This type tends to lean towards the highland Thai side of the sativa spectrum. Growth/Appearance: Medium to tall plants with good node spacing. Medium to semi tall strong stems and verdant to dark green leaf with purple on leaf serrations at harvest. Scent: OG fuel, lemon, citrus Effect: Powerful creeper effect,high CBD and THC. Some may think it’s too much for their lifestyle. Can be trippy. Flowering Time: 56 – 65 days Breeder’s Notes: A stronger than average type with good mold and mite resistance
