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 The Gaffa

The ultimate Indica selection would not be complete with an original Afghani Indica strain. The Gaffa is a perfect example of the raw potency and growth vigor that the Afghanistan genetics are renowned for. A quick flowering strain like the Gaffa can grow both indoors and outdoors in temperate climates. Outdoor Gaffa plants can grow up to 6-7 feet in height when left alone finishing early October, due to their natural resistance to moulds you are guaranteed a great harvest. The true power of the Gaffa shows when growing indoors, an easy to manipulate plant with extreme grow vigor that will harvest incredible yields. Afghani strains tend to have a fresh taste balancing between pine and eucalyptus, which ripens to a strong full aroma after drying and curing. Hash-lovers amongst us will enjoy the second harvest of this strain; the smaller leaves are covered with precious resin and can yield large amounts of hashish. The effects are strong and physical, a perfect strain for instant "medication" that will relax the body but leaves your head clear enough to be productive and motivated.
