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 Red Malawi

This is one of our personal favorite mixes of genetics, that hits us in all the right ways. Functional medicine that is strong, creative complex. These girls are landrace hammers! The malawi male adds depth and complexity to the already great high of the Angola Red #13. The flavours stay in that african realm: earth, pea, hash, lichen and variations thereof. Plants grow with vigour and flowers to please the heads in your life!
