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 Ziwano

Rainbow Guava from Bloom crossed to my Tropic Barries male from Ice Cold Seeds. I was surprised when the majority of the progeny came out with heavy melon profiles ranging from Watermelon - Honey Dew - Cantaloupe. So with such a tangy and unique profile I decided to name it after a melon that was a bit off the wall (Kiwano) I’ll be honest about the fact that I’m not a huge Rainbow Guava fan but I love the high, so this one was a shot in the dark, by just taking something popular and hitting it with a male who’s terpene profile is strong enough to make an impact on influencing a flavor that’s so dominant
