![]() The Shishkaberry mother is a favorite of the breeder, who has worked with compassion clubs across Canada for years. Barbara Budīarbara Bud is an Indica-dominant medicinal cross of a Shishkaberry mother and an Afghani Indica hybrid father that has extreme trichome coverage. These strains are commercially available providing both home growers and licensed cultivation centers with predictable results. These are the varieties and seeds that are part of the new industry. Here are 19 TOP Indica strains bred by seed companies around the worldĪll that follows are not just pretty pictures. Leaves: Wide short leaves, short wide blades Plant characteristics of Indicasīranching: Lots of side branching usually wider than its height *All the strains below contain greater than 70% Indica and are listed in alphabetical order. However, they have both Sativa and Indica influences, which may include surprising hints of Sativa in some aspects of the plant’s makeup, flavors, or high. Side branching is usually not prominent so they can be grown in a small space. They don’t grow very tall and after forcing flowering, their growth is limited. Indica-Sativa hybrids naturally tend towards the Indica side of the family. The high is heavy, body-oriented, and lethargic. Indica smoke is dense, lung expanding, and cough inducing. Sometimes they form continuous clusters along the stem, but their intense smells ranging from acrid, skunky, or musky to deep pungent aromas reminiscent of chocolate, coffee, earth, or hash. They form different shapes depending on variety. By increasing the amount of chlorophyll, the cells use light more efficiently. At the 30th latitude, the plants don’t receive as much light as plants at or near the equator. Sometimes there is webbing between the leaflets. The leaves are short, very wide, and dark green when compared to most equatorial Sativas because they contain larger amounts of chlorophyll. They range in shape from a rounded bush to a pine-like shape with a wide base. They are bushy with compact branching and short internodes and are arranged to capture all the light that falls inside the canopy. ![]() Pure Indica plants are short, usually under 5 feet (1.5 meters) tall. No matter what the weather during a particular year, some plants will thrive and reproduce. Even within a particular population there is a high degree of heterogeneity, which results in plants of the same variety having quite a bit of variability. For this reason the populations in these regions have a varied gene pool. The weather there is quite variable from year to year. This includes the countries of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Northern India, and Nepal. Indica plants originated around the 30th parallel in the Hindu Kush region of the Himalayan foothills. In addition to skill, an inspired breeder has an intuitive ability to choose the right one. Not many people have this ability-a sort of perfect pitch in the area of THC and cannabis. ![]() Breeders must be tough, tenacious and focused in order to pursue their careers. They are determined they are, competitive, and driven by obsession. It requires a keen eye, an acute sense of taste and most importantly, an ability to discern a plant with outstanding properties.īreeders are a different kind of people than you or me. From “seed to sale” it all starts with the talent, patience and insight of the breedersīreeding is not easy.
