Indica ~ Sativa ~ Ruderalis

Indica, Sativa, and Ruderalis are the three main types of cannabis strains, each with distinct characteristics. Indica strains are known for their relaxing and sedative effects, often helping with sleep and stress relief. Sativa strains tend to be more energizing and uplifting, making them popular for daytime use and creativity. Ruderalis is a less well-known variety that naturally auto-flowers and generally has lower THC levels, often used in breeding to create auto-flowering hybrids.

Many people assume Hybrid's are the third strain but in reality a hybrid is just a mixrure of Indica and Sativa, but in reality ruderalis is the third strains and it's a separate subspecies with unique traits. So, next time someone says Ruderalis is just a "mystery hybrid," remind them—it's actually the "wild card" in the cannabis deck!

THC-A (Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) and Delta-8 THC are both compounds found in cannabis, but they have different properties and effects. THC-A is the non-psychoactive precursor to THC, the primary psychoactive component in cannabis. It is naturally present in raw cannabis and converts to THC through a process called decarboxylation, typically when heated. Delta-8 THC is a minor cannabinoid that occurs in smaller amounts and is chemically similar to Delta-9 THC, the most well-known psychoactive compound, but generally produces milder effects. Both compounds are of interest for their potential therapeutic benefits and psychoactive properties.
