Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 50%Sativa 50%

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 Ski Train

The Ski Train is the end result of a 6 year journey to find the perfect, easy to grow, pollen free Trainwreck cross for our patients. A wonderful medicine, the Trainwreck is a patient favorite for those that love sativa heavy hybrids. After growing most cuts and crosses available, we were almost ready to scrap the project due to the male pollen production found on the Arcata dominant moms when stressed even slightly. While this hints at the strains sativa heavy origins, accidental pollen production simply has no place in most patient's medical gardens. We also found that many Arcata crosses just did not retain the energetic blended sativa high we loved so much.ÿ We were pleased to try breeder Beanho's Trainwreck bx3 x PCK (Pakistan Chitral Kush). We've grown other crosses of Beanho's using their SSH (Super Silver Haze) male and have had stellar results in the past. We highly recommend the Beanho product! The Trainwreck bx3, coupled with the PCK was an absolute winner! We took our time and selected through a large pool with the help of licensed medical patients to find our "Ski Train" cut. Riding the Ski Train to Colorado's beautifulÿ Rocky Mountains was a favorite pastime of both f
