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 Strawmelon

The plant used as a female in this cross comes from an own selection of Strawberry and Cream F2 from Exotic Genetix, in which the objective was to obtain a plant with marked notes of strawberries in its aroma and flavor. Finally, #24 was chosen by The Grateful Seeds, a specimen with this curious flavor that also had a large amount of resin and rock-hard buds. On the other hand, the male parent (reversed female) used is Fresca Melon, a magnificent Sativa-dominant variety that comes from the Dying Breed Seeds collection and that The Grateful Seeds have used for other hybrids such as Papaya Cooler. Cross between Zkittlez and Watermelon Zkittlez, its fruity flavor and stimulating effect are two of its most appreciated traits. Growing Strawmelon Cannabis strain from The Grateful Seeds Strawmelon is a versatile plant that is easily adaptable to all types of environments and cultivation techniques, from indoor grow tents to large greenhouses or outdoor growing areas.

Its flowering lasts about 9 weeks, during which tim
