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 Skunk Classic

An interesting and highly potent flashback to the original Skunk plants and their forebears, to a time when the Sativa elements of the famous hybrid were more pronounced. The original Skunks were bred from Afghani, Mexican and Columbian cannabis. As true-breeding seed strains and later hybrids were developed, Afghani genes became the dominant influence in most Skunk varieties. Skunk Classic gives growers a taste of the old-school by back-crossing Skunk #1 with a high-pedigree Columbian mother. The result is a heavy, pungent plant that produces long, solid, buds bursting with resin. Her effect is high and happy. Flowering: 50 - 60 days Yield: 100 g Height: 120 - 160 cm
