Sativa、Indica 与杂交种
这些术语最初的含义，以及为什么它们几乎无法预测作用。
“Sativa 提神，Indica 助眠”——这种说法随处可见。但在植物学和日常用语中，这些术语的用法截然不同。一项对 100 多个大麻样本的遗传分析发现，“Sativa”和“Indica”标签并不能在全基因组层面反映遗传亲缘关系，而主要与少数几种香气物质（萜烯）有关（Watts 等，Nature Plants 2021）。

Why I Look at Morphology & Terpenes Rather Than “Sativa/Indica” Labels
In the grow tent you quickly see how right the genetic studies are: the label “Indica” or “Sativa” mainly tells you whether a plant grows compact and broad-leaved (BLD) or tall and narrow-leaved (NLD) and how much it stretches in early bloom. Its aroma and character, however, come down to its specific terpene and cannabinoid profile (chemovar) and trichome ripeness at harvest.
