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 ZKIEM
R-Kiem Seeds are proud to present their exciting new variety ZKIEM, developed using the elite clone Zkittles, one of the most flavourful strains of recent years and the winner of multiple cannabis competitions, including The Emerald Cup in 2016 and two High Times Cannabis Cups. It’s Indica-dominant genetics mean that ZKIEM is a compact and well-branched plant, growing with a short inter-nodal distance, and quickly forming large, chunky and highly resinous colas with a mouthwatering aroma. There’s no doubt that flavour and aroma are ZKIEMs defining features, the large and bulbous trichomes are rich in terpenes, giving off an intensely sweet smell enriched with earthy, kushy notes. The impressive resin production of this cultivar makes it a perfect choice for cannabis extractions, offering a 15% return in hash or BHO. The extreme vigour of this hybrid makes it resistant to pests, diseases and environmental factors, adapting easily to cultivation indoors under lights, flowering in just 8 weeks and yielding very well indeed, producing up to 600g per m2. When grown outdoors, Z KIEM performs just as well, and we can expect to harvest a heavy crop of buds at some point around the end of S
