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.

About Sholgar

Sholgar is another district in Balkh province, famous within Balkh chillum houses to have some of the strongest terpiest hash around. Funky motor oil, gassy, fresh and strong is the dominant profiles in these cultivars. The Qairang river feeds these plains with micro nutrients and mineral rich sediments every year, this is probably why these plants have evolved to carry such pleasant terps. The hashish from this region is always very strong and is very popular amongst Balkh smokers. Flowering Time 8-11 Weeks
