Hybrid
aka hybrid strain
A hybrid is a cannabis strain that combines indica and sativa genetics. Hybrids can be balanced, sativa-leaning, or indica-leaning depending on parent strains. Most modern commercial cultivars are hybrids — pure indica or pure sativa cultivars are rare in 2026's catalog. Effects vary widely.
Example: Most popular modern strains like Wedding Cake and Gelato are hybrids.
Etymology: General botanical term applied to cannabis breeding since the 1970s.
