Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 70%Sativa 30%

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 Sunset Paradise[1]

This plant is a Paradise twist on the California exotic strain, Gelato. It is a Thin Mint GSC/Sunset Sherbert cross with a quick harvest time and big, gooey bud production. For those who love to exercise their taste buds, this strain is a delightful cocktail of terpenes with lavender, fruity sweetness and spiced skunk highlights. The effect is full bodied with intense relaxation. Finish time is 8 weeks indoor/early October outdoors
