Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 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.

Samangan Mountains are located in Samangan Province, Afghanistan, just north of the Hindu Kush Mountain Range. He has brought the selection to f3, eliminating 99% of intersex tendencies, while stabilizing beautiful high yielding resin coated plants that produce massive amounts of oil. The stock is currently under selection being further tested and stabilized for f4 production. A beautiful set of aromas can be experienced specifically including fermented bloomy rind cheese, gas, and sometimes tropical and stone fruit. Effects are grounding, non-energetic, and narcotic. This selection is very strong. These plants take 8-10 weeks in bloom. After some further research, Tonglen Song found the name was based on the hero Rostam from the 11th century Iranian mythological epic "Shahnameh", in which Rostam travels to Samangan to find his horse, Rakhsh (Persian for lightening), who was stolen by a pack of b
