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 Sugar Rush

Though a strain with an unsurprisingly sweet flavor profile and aroma, fans report that the closest Sugar Rush weed comes to tasting fruity is its likeness to "fruit" flavored treats like gumdrops and lollipops. Pay attention to the Sugar Rush exhale, though, which carries the fuel and skunk notes of its genetic lineage. Clearwater Genetics concocted this delicious strain, which lists Pyxy Styx x Mai Tai #4 as parents. The light, uplifting effects of the latter are said to stand out most, with consumers saying they feel energized, motivated, analytical, and clear minded during a Sugar Rush cannabis high. Sugar Rush nugs are typically a rich green with purple sugar leaf highlights, light orange hairs, and a soft layer of sugary trichomes that bring the strain's inspiration home
