What is Sativa Cannabis?
One of the first things budding cannabis connoisseurs notice is that cannabis is divided into three distinct groups: indica, sativa, and hybrid. All are members of the same species. The scientific name applicable to all, which can be rather confusing, is Cannabis Sativa L. (the “L.” stands for Linnaeus, who first named the species). Indicas, including kush strains, are known for their body highs and sedative effects. People remember them because indica sounds like “couch potato.” They’re great for unwinding and relaxing, and are perfect for evenings out. These short, bushy strains originated in Afghanistan, Nepal, and India, in the Hindu Kush region. The indica leaf is typically oily. Sativas, including the Haze family of strains, are more stimulating and achievement-oriented. These tall, lanky equatorial strains can reach 7 meters in height and were developed in warm climates, notably Thailand, Southern Africa, Colombia, and Mexico. The sativa leaf is generally thin. These plants are compatible with task completion, socializing, and creative activities such as creating visual art, writing, or music. Hybrids, of course, combine the effects of indica and sativa marijuana in varying ratios, depending on the exact genetic mix. What are the effects of Sativa? 2-What-is-sativa-cbd-fr The sativa high (the effects of sativa) is more cerebral than the indica high (the effects of indica) and is felt more deeply in the body. Its stimulating properties are perfect for “waking up” smokers and for anyone who prefers to consume marijuana during the day.But for some people, the surge of mental stimulation and racing thoughts associated with sativa cannabis can actually increase anxiety. That’s why people prone to anxiety attacks often choose indica strains instead. Some pulse-pumping sativas like Jack Herer, Trainwreck, and Green Crack are loved by their fans for these mental fireworks, while being avoided by others because they find them a bit too mentally stimulating.
What are the benefits of sativa cannabis strains? The mental buzz associated with sativa cannabis makes it ideal for creative activities. Those euphoric and exhilarating thoughts enjoyed by many with a sativa high mean it can foster new ideas and creations. It can also increase focus. These strains can be very helpful in combating depression, fatigue, and mood disorders. There’s absolutely nothing like a cannabinoid-induced mental energy boost to pull you out of the rut (meaning the drudgery—not to mention the depression—you might be experiencing…).
Sativa weed can also be very helpful in treating Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) due to its ability to increase mental focus. While some people prone to oversimplification will tell you that “indica equals medical marijuana and sativa equals recreational marijuana,” this isn’t necessarily true. The two strains have different reported benefits, although it’s important to note that none of this has yet been verified by medical research.Watch out, the CBD team. .FR can only remind you that marijuana is illegal in France: the THC content of the plants featured in this article does not (yet!) allow its distribution in France. Please be vigilant! Don’t confuse the different laws of different countries. Which is the best Sativa?

The
team includes many weed stars, including several of the most iconic and legendary strains in cannabis history. Legendary Weeds and Strains Panama Red
and Acapulco Gold are two of the most remarkable strains that caused a sensation in the 1960s. Both quickly achieved mythical status among hippies for their legendary potency, with mental effects that could be considered almost psychedelic. The American misadventure in Vietnam in Southeast Asia contributed to the discovery of Thai Stick. Vietnamese weed, another ultra-potent cousin of Thai Stick, was very popular among American troops. Durban Poison, which emerged from South Africa, became known as one of the most powerful weeds in the world in the 1970s. Hawaiian, too; its “one-hit” potency quickly spread its fame beyond the islands and around the world. Durban, which will light up your brain with euphoric electricity, remains one of the few 100% pure sativa marijuana strains widely available. Trainwreck offers an intense head high, and while this is appreciated by its devotees, it is not recommended for smokers prone to anxiety. The cognitive effects, however, vary greatly from person to person, and some anxious patients enjoy it. The aforementioned Jack Herer is very reminiscent of Trainwreck and was a legendary favorite of the author of *The Emperor Wears No Clothes*, the book many consider the bible of the hemp movement.
Modern sativa-dominant hybrid varieties include Amnesia Haze, which offers an extremely potent sativa high, and Girl Scout Cookies, which took the West Coast and then the nation by storm about four years ago. Discover most of these legendary strains in CBD versions.
Durban Poison CBD Flower
Amnesia Haze CBD Flower Sativa Cannabis Flower The sativa plant is primarily grown outdoors.
The sativa plant often grows very tall very quickly during its vegetative growth phase. There aren’t many growers who can accommodate them indoors.
Another factor that leads to more outdoor cultivation is the long flowering period of sativa strains. While indicas typically finish flowering in 60 days, and often in 45 days, sativas need a minimum of 60 days and sometimes up to 90 days to truly complete flowering. It costs significantly more to run these energy-guzzling grow lights for 12 weeks than for eight. Each sativa leaf blade is narrower than indica leaf blades, although modern hybridization processes mean this is no longer a 100% correlation. Since these strains were originally developed in equatorial climates, they are more naturally suited to outdoor growing sites in places like Southern California, Arkansas, and Florida (now that the latter two states have joined the 21st century by legalizing medical marijuana!).

What is the difference between sativa and indica? Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica are two species of cannabis. Testimonials indicate that indica
calms people while sativastimulates a person’s creative energy.
As the use of cannabis for medical and recreational purposes becomes legal in more and more countries, there is a growing interest in the different effects that indica and sativa strains can produce.
Sativa and indica share many characteristics, but also have differences. Physical differences between strains: Botanists use physical differences—such as variations in height, branching patterns, and leaf shape—to identify different strains of plants. This is where the names “indica” and “sativa” come from.
Indica plants are shorter than sativa plants, and they have a woody, not fibrous, stem. Indica plants also grow faster than sativa plants. What is the effect of CBD Sativa? Medicago Sativa

Indica cannabis strains are known for their relaxing and sedative effects, which can help induce sleep.Sativa strains, on the other hand, tend to be more energizing and cerebral, and are often used to boost creativity, productivity, and energy. Therefore, they are not generally recommended for sleep. However, it’s important to note that the exact effect can vary from person to person and also depends on the specific strain, as each cannabis strain has a unique composition of cannabinoids and terpenes. Furthermore, these classifications are increasingly considered simplistic and fail to capture the full complexity of the cannabis plant.
