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 Sweet 16
Sweet 16 is our favorite selection from a 180 plant grow of Pinks N Purps F1. This girl has an amazing candied fruit terpene profile with mostly green flowers (sometimes she’ll be a little bit pink!). Pinks N Purps is collaboration hybrid made by a few friends. NCGA crossed Mendo Purps with Killer Queen to start it off. Blaze took those seeds (or a clone?) and crossed them to a Hawaiian line that produced Pink pistils. He continued that hybrid to an F2 generation, of which he passed a select clone from the F2’s to Shiva, who crossed it to Afghani #1. I received the progeny of that final hybrid and made several selections from a decent sized seed pop: Sweet 16 was the overall keeper with Blackberry 69 a close second
