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 Sotho Heights
This variety does not grow as large as most African Sativas, although it forms long branches and narrow leaves, giving it a typically Sativa appearance. It adapts well to both SOG and SCROG. Its structure is slender, pine tree-shaped, and its branches are flexible, with a medium internode distance. Plants are naturally adapted to cold weather, since in winter it snows regularly at its zone of origin in the heights of Lesotho. It is called "Matekoane" by locals, and is famous for its healing properties, being used by farmers to treat high blood pressure, asthma and during childbirth, as well as pest control for animals. It produces an abundant harvest of relatively dense buds, covered with shiny, aromatic trichomes, perfect for making resin extractions. Its aroma combines earthy notes with coffee and acidic lemon, and it gives an energetic yet relaxing effect, cerebral and psychoactive, offering a pleasant sensation of well being.
