Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Sativa 100%

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 Purpurea 09

Purpurea 09 is an inbred cross of the legendary Swiss outdoor variety Purpurea Ticinensis from 2009, which Owls produced for many years - at the time it was one of the most popular hemp varieties from Switzerland. Helvetic Seeds has now revived this mostly Sativa by sowing Purpurea seeds from 2009 outdoors in 2019 and crossing the best male with the best female. It was possible to preserve the original genetics of this old Swiss original variety and many outdoor gardeners will definitely have great pleasure with these seeds. Purpurea 09 is perfectly adapted to the mountainous climate of the Alps, so it is of course also suitable for cooler, harsh climates around the world - the variety is extremely resistant and always impresses with its fantastic results
