Indica / Sativa / Hybrid
Menus sort flower into indica, sativa, and hybrid, with a promised effect axis from couch to coffee. The botany underneath is real but the effect mapping is weak: modern cultivars are nearly all hybrids, and studies keep failing to find chemical lines that match the labels. What actually varies is cannabinoid content and terpene profile. We keep the labels because everyone shops with them, and we hedge them because honesty requires it: treat indica/sativa as a loose flavor-and-marketing genre, not a prediction of how a product will make you, specifically, feel. No product page can promise that.
