If marijuana is legal where you live and you've ever stepped inside a dispensary, you might've been overwhelmed by the sheer number of different strains available. All these strains can be split into 2 main types: indica , which is more of a downer, and sativa , which is more of an upper. [1] As it turns out, the 2 types are different in a lot of different ways. Here, we've gathered different attributes you can use to tell indica and sativa apart, whether you're smoking them, looking at a jar of buds, or walking through a cultivation center.

    With sativa strains, you'll see words like "diesel" and "power" that capitalize on the energetic nature of the sativa high. Indica strains tend to have more mellow names. Sativa strains are also more likely to have fruits, like pineapple or strawberry, in their names, due to the plant's fruity aroma when smoked. [2]
    • Many popular indica strains include the word "kush" in their names since indica originates in the Kush mountains, which span the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. [3]
    • Hybrid strains usually have names that reflect the dominant type. For example, "Pineapple Express" is a sativa-dominant hybrid, while "Cookies Kush" is an indica-dominant.

    If you're looking at a jar of buds, you can typically tell indica apart from sativa simply by the shape of the buds. Sativa buds are long and cylindrical compared to indica buds, which are more round. Indica buds are also incredibly dense compared to sativa buds. [4]
    • Hybrids, which are a combination of sativa and indica plants, usually take on the bud shape of the dominant strain. So if those buds have a sausage shape, you know the dominant strain is sativa.

    If you stick your nose in a jar of fresh buds or catch a whiff of someone's smoke, you might be able to tell the type by smell alone. Indica produces a heavier, mustier smell compared to sativa, which can smell fruity or spicy. Why do they smell different? Terpenes! [5]
    • Limonene is a terpene that's heavy in sativa strains. This terpene is responsible for the energy you get from sativa. It's also common in citrus fruits, which explains the fruity aroma many sativa strains have.
    • Linalool and pinene are terpenes with relaxing effects that are found in indica strains. If you couldn't guess from the name, pinene can also be found in pine needles and contributes to indica's earthy aroma.

    [6] Sativa is typically considered more of a daytime cannabis because it can give you energy and improve your focus. Indica, on the other hand, has a calming effect that relaxes your mind and promotes sleep. For that reason, most people prefer to use indica strains at night. [7]
    • These are very general differences in the mental effects for the 2 basic types. Different people can have different experiences depending on their own mental state. For example, if you have ADHD, you might find that sativa calms you.
    Jorge Cervantes, Bestselling Marijuana Author

    Indica strains tend to provide a more relaxing, sedative effect that can help relieve pain, anxiety, and sleep issues. Sativas usually deliver a more energetic, uplifting high that sparks creativity and focus. But the reality is more nuanced, with countless hybrid strains exhibiting mixed traits.

    [8] While sativa is used to treat chronic pain, its effects are more mental than indica's. Indica is the type that gives you a "body high," relaxing your muscles and reducing tension. [9]
    • If you want a mix of both, try an indica-dominant hybrid. The CBD in the indica will mellow out the THC for a more relaxed buzz than you'd get with sativa alone, but you'll still get more of a buzz than you would with pure indica.

    Looking at the mental and physical effects of each type gives you a good idea of the medical benefits. Just think in terms of what medical condition might be improved by that effect. [10]
    • In addition to providing much-needed energy and focus for people with ADHD, depression, and related conditions, sativa is also used as an appetite stimulant.
    • Because indica is also a muscle relaxant, it's helpful in treating pain, inflammation, and muscle spasms.

    Sativa plants are tall and thin with the branches reaching upward. When cultivated outdoors, sativa plants may grow up to 12 feet (3.7 m) tall! Indica plants seldom grow more than 6 feet (1.8 m) tall, but are wider at the base than sativa plants, shaped similar to a pine tree. [16]
    • The usable part of the sativa plant tends to be about halfway up the plant, while indica buds flourish all the way down to the bottom of the stalk.

    Sativa leaves are the model for the stereotypical pot leaf icon you see on T-shirts, hats, and stickers. Indica leaves are fat, wide, and flat. [17]
    • Although the leaves of both types grow in the same pattern, this is typically the easiest way to distinguish the 2 types of cannabis. Indica leaves are usually double or even triple the width of sativa leaves.

    Indica plants originated in central Asia and the Indian subcontinent. Sativa is native to countries such as Thailand, Mexico, Cambodia, and Colombia. Sativa varieties are more likely to be grown in Central and South America. [18]
    • Since indica hails from mountainous areas in Tibet and Nepal, it grows easily at altitude.

    Sativa plants grow tall in temperate, almost tropical zones. In colder climates, they're typically grown indoors. In contrast, indica plants thrive in cooler climates and at higher altitudes. [19]
    • Growers tend to prefer indica plants because they're hardier than sativa varieties and produce higher yields despite being smaller plants.

    An indica plant will flower in 45 to 60 days, whereas sativa plants take 60-90 days. Sativa plants have less chlorophyll than indica, which is why they take longer to finish blooming. [20]

    Expert Answer
    Yes, but these products do not drive CBD deep enough into the body to reach the bloodstream. As a result, it is unlikely that this method of administration would help with things like anxiety, seizures, sleep problems and other symptoms or medical conditions.

      Tips

      • Statements on labels that claim a specific therapeutic effect, like “promotes sleep”, “reduces pain”, should be interpreted with skepticism. Given the federal prohibition on marijuana, the US FDA has not sanctioned any health-related claims for marijuana products. [21]

      • If you're just starting to explore cannabis, keep a journal. Write down information about each strain you purchase, including the percentages of CBD, THC, and different terpenes. Then, describe the effects it had on you and how you liked it. You can use this information to find the best strains for you.
