Indica Strains
Indica is a term used in the cannabis consumer marketplace to describe products with sedating, relaxing, and heavy physical effects. Indica cannabis plants are typically short in stature with broad leaves and shorter growing cycles. Indica cultivars are well-suited for growth in cooler climates due to their shorter flowering periods.

Origin: Cannabis indica is native to Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, and Turkey. The plants have adapted to the often harsh, dry, and turbulent climate of the Hindu Kush mountains.

Plant description: Indica plants are short and stocky with bushy greenery and chunky leaves that grow wide and broad. They grow faster than sativa, and each plant produces more buds.

Typical CBD to THC ratio: Indica strains often have higher levels of CBD and less THC.

Commonly associated effects of use: Indica is sought after for its intensely relaxing effects. It may also reduce nausea and pain and increase appetite.

Daytime or nighttime use: Because of its deep relaxation effects, indica is better consumed at night.
What Type of Strain is Right for Me Sativa, Indica, or Hybrid?
Traditionally, sativa strains are more uplifting and euphoric and are recommended for daytime use. A hybrid is a cannabis plant that is a crossbreed between an indica and a sativa plant. There are very few cannabis strains that are of true indica or true sativa variety
