hehe I made a post on breedbay called "stop calling it sativa!"
:blsmoke:

I can't imagine the troll fest it would start if I made it on this forum.


interesting shit.



I've never grown a pure "sativa" nor smoked one but I'm drying to try some. I've had my pack of Kali Mist for about 5 years now. :O straight up afraid of that flower time.

Latest research indicates that your durban poison and south african kwazulu are actually cannabis indica subspecies indica (previously thought to be cannabis sativa). All THC producing varieties are indica(meaning of india, originating in india). What we previously thought of indica is still Cannabis indica but subspecies afghanica.

Cannabis sativa is hemp. It's very interesting shit. Check out the video.


I pulled these pictures and text from Todd McCormicks IG. Sums it up nicely.

Exhibit A: Narrow-leaf drug variety or NLD - Cannabis indica subspecies indica - equatorial in nature and flowering for usually more than 10/11 weeks. Incorrectly called "Sativa" before the release of Cannabis: Evolution and Ethnobotany

Exhibit B: Broad-leaf drug variety or BLD - Cannabis indica subspecies afghanica - northern temperate and flowering for less than 10 weeks. Correctly called "Indica" and now referred to as a broad-leaf drug variety. Robert C. Clarke author of Marijuana Botany, HASHISH! and more recently: Cannabis: Evolution and Ethnobotany

i will look into that cool!
here i thought my lettuce sativa just ment "cultivated" lol....
Sativum, Sativus, and Sativa are Latin botanical adjectives meaning cultivated, used to designate certain seed-grown domestic crops.

Sativa (ending in -a) is the feminine form of the adjective, but masculine (-us) and neuter (-um) endings are also used to agree with the gender of the nouns they modify. For example, the masculine Crocus sativus and neuter Pisum sativum.

Examples of crops incorporating this word and its variations into their Latin name include:

Yes we spoke of this sativa meaning cultivated on Breedbay. In the video presentation Mr. Clarke says it means the word "useful" so I am not too sure about that because you are absolutely correct it means cultivated, which makes sense that some of the worlds major food crops end in sativa. Either way it's pretty fascinating and I really want to pick up the book but it's a $100!

I haven't been around long enough to know who that is but...... bwahahahaha. :mrgreen: It's still the same herb it always has been, just a different name is all. It's funny some people are so reluctant to change and acceptance. I wouldn't dare make this into a thread here on TROLLitup.

I've thought about searching for a pdf but I would like to show my support and purchase the book. 17 years in the making is a lot of work! They need to get paid.

Been hearing a lot about this info and called your putting some of it up over here. Been wanting to get that book too but funds are tight. It really is crazy how people don't like change even when you put all the facts right in front of them. Just like we call all these crosses strains and when really they're not the cultivar(s). I guess when the big wigs in the cannabis community/industry say its like this and that people will listen lol

The funny thing is the big wigs are already adopting it but lots of people don't know who Rob Clarke is(mainly the younger crowd) and they think that they know about cannabis than him.

I made this into a topic on both gc and bb and the difference in responses is amusing.

and I actually spoke to Todd McCormick about this and he told me it's no different in California than it is in other places. I thought maybe considering Cali is the epicenter of cannabis in USA that folks would be better educated and more accepting but nope, he told me it's the same thing there.


It's hard to teach an old dog new tricks on a mainstream level, a wise man once said.

If it is landrace uncrossed then yes it is sativa.

Actually sativa was classified incorrectly in the '70s and should be called Indica (originating in India).

Cannabis Indica (Formerly Sativa)

Origin: India

Morphology: Taller (>1.5m) than their short and stocky Afghanica cousins, with sparser branches and less dense buds/flowers.

Physiology: Longer flowering time, between nine and fourteen weeks. Minimal frost tolerance with a moderate production of resin.

Chemistry: Much greater THC than CBD and other cannabinoids, this leads to the “head high” many users report.

Psychoactivity: Stimulating.


Cannabis Afghanica (Formerly Indica)


Origin: Central Asia (Afghanistan, Turkestan, Pakistan)

Morphology: Shorter (<1.5m) than Indica strains with dense branches with wider leaves, and much denser buds/flowers

Physiology: Shorter flowering time, as little as seven to nine weeks. Good frost tolerance with high resin production. Afghanica strains can be susceptible to mold due to how dense the buds and branches are.

Chemistry: More variable than Indica strains. THC is often still the predominant cannabinoid but some strains have 1:1 ratios and some may have even higher CBD than THC.

Psychoactivity: Sedating.


Cannabis Sativa (Formerly Ruderalis)


Origin: Usually feral or wild. From Europe or Central Asia.

Morphology: Variable, depending on origin.

Physiology: The flowering time is short and variable, many varieties exhibit autoflowering traits (flowering independently of sun cycles). Moderate frost tolerance with relatively low resin production.

Chemistry: More CBD than THC. Prominent terpenes include caryophyllene and myrcene, giving these strains a floral flavor and scent.

Psychoactivity: Usually lacking.

I am still trying to get people to stop calling Cannabis by the names Pot, Weed, and Marijuana!

It is like calling Scotch by the names Hooch, Rotgut, and Booze.
Bahahaha so true!


tbh I don't really care what people call it but you know when you are speaking with someone that calls it cannabis or herb they on the same wavelength as you. To me that's what it is.
