Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 30%Sativa 70%

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 Sour Cyclone

There are many THC dominant cannabis strains held in high esteem for the wondrous traits and resulting benefits that THC can deliver, so we set out to breed a cultivar that could stand among these varietals not just in cannabinoid potency, but also grow into a plant that proudly exhibits integrity of structure, appearance, and harvests as good, if not better, than the prized marquee THC strains. To this ambitious goal, we wished to breed a cultivar with a higher CBD content that can deliver effective medicine while still being complemented by THC and a diverse terpene profile. For this project, we simply chose our absolute favorite CBD strain: Sour Tsunami #3 by Southern Humboldt Seed Collective. Consistently testing at around 10% CBD to a THC level so low it could almost qualify as agricultural hemp, Sour Tsunami is an exceptionally hardy and easy plant to grow. It is incredibly sturdy, vigorous, resinous, and high-yielding. We paired her with a colorful male of our own creation: Pink Dream, which is our cross of Blue Dream X Huckleberry Hound. Here, we were hoping for this father to gift its notable traits as bud structure, color, and yield. Well, consider that all three phenotyp
