Most Popular Weed Strains

What are Cannabis Strains?

Weed or “cannabis” comes in several kinds and subspecies. Cultivators and farmers have long bred several kinds with specific features to generate hybrids and strains. Each cannabis strain has varying amounts of the cannabinoids tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), and other chemicals. Producers cultivate the plants to have a specific appearance, flavor, and impact on the user, and then brand them appropriately. Currently, studies on the effects of various cannabis strains are primarily based on people’s personal experiences. Although researchers are investigating the impact of various cannabis strains on a number of medical ailments, there is still more work to be done in this field.

Cannabis strains are all descended from the Cannabaceae plant family. According to some researchers, the two primary subspecies are Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa. Although some individuals believe they are different species. Cultivators choose a range of features to obtain the desired results while creating a strain. This is comparable to how breeders produce certain qualities in animals.

Cannabis strains are frequently classified as indica, sativa, or hybrid. A hybrid strain is one that was generated by blending indica and sativa strains.

Indica Strains

Cannabis strains classified as indicas are believed to provide relaxing effects. Indica strains are preferred by medical marijuana users because they promote sleep and lessen discomfort.

Sativa Strains

Sativa, along with indica and hybrid, is one of the three basic categories used to describe cannabis strains. Dispensaries promote sativa strains as the energizing alternative to indica strains, which are thought to be more sedative, despite the categorization system’s age and flaws. In contrast to other marijuana strains that make you sleepy, budtenders advertise sativa strains as providing energy, creativity, or focus. Additionally, many patients mention using sativa strains in their Leafly reviews to help them cope with the symptoms of mood disorders or other cognitive problems, such as depression and ADHD.
