Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 70%Sativa 30%

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 Rare Dark Candy

Rare Dark Candy is an Indica leaning hybrid strain that combines the fresh candy terps and colorful colors of Candylicious and the sweet grapey flavors of Rare Darkness from Rare Dankness Seeds. Rare Dark Candy is a vigorous plant and is very responsive to training. Most phenos are short structured strong plants with dark purple flowers that are just absolutely covered in trichombes. She is slower in veg just cruising along as the perfect pace. We have grown her both indoors and outdoors with great success in both resistance to the elements and good yields of high quality flower. Indoors expect 8 and a half weeks to 9 weeks flowering. Rare Dark Candy has a nice balanced ratio of Indica and Sativa, making it suitable for both daytime and nighttime use. The flowers are dense and frosty, with hues of purple, green, and orange. The aroma is reminiscent of a Grand Daddy Purp or a Grape Ape type strain but with the added candy. Rare Dark Candy is just delicious leaving you craving more and more for the aroma and taste. The effects are uplifting and euphoric, all while mildly sedating and calming without inducing sleep combined with a relaxing body high that melts away stress and pain. Ra
