Indica - Sativa - Hybrid

---

Indica dominant strains are typically known to be very relaxing with a "body high". Cannabis users note the following effects

:

• Body High
• Sleep Aid
• Relaxation
• Reduced Sensation of Pain

Sativa strains are energizing, uplifting  and are associated with mood-improving effects. Sativa dominant strains may improve focus and concentration. Most common effects:

• Cerebral High
• Creativity
• Energizing
• Euphoric
• Boosts Productivity

Hybrids are a result of crossing sativa and indica strains to create the right mix of relaxing and uplifting effects. The effects from hybrids cover a large spectrum with infinite possibilities.  The dominance (%) of Indica or Sativa (relaxation/energy) is usually the determining factor.

Cannabis plants contain several flavanoids that are found nowhere else in nature, they are known as cannaflavins. These compounds are widely distributed and fulfil many functions like protecting the plants from damaging UV rays, pests and disease. Flavonoids are responsible for the pigmentation in cannabis,  from deep purples to yellow.

 Research has shown that flavonoids have many beneficial and therapeutic effects. it is also a  powerful antioxidant.  with anti-inflammatory and immune system benefits.

, The synergy of cannabinids, terpenes and flavonoids is called "The Entourage Effect" which refers to ingesting multiple components of the cannabis plant and these compounds working together as opposed to individual cannabinoids working in isolation. Future research will allow for motor discoveries from this healing plant.

Terpenes are what give plants their aroma and flavour. Different types of terpenes are responsible for a variety of taste and smells in cannabis, these chemical compounds make each strain unique and special. Terpenes interact with other components of the plant in a way to boost the therapeutic benefits of the cannabinoids.

 Terpenes like cannabinoids can bind with endocannabinoid receptors in the brain and body, they can also act directly on tissues and cells in the immune system, for example Pinene hits your body's pain receptors to reduce pain and discomfort from conditions such as fibromyalgia and arthritis. Terpene's interact with your body's endocannabinoid system which help to regulate your appetite, immune function, memory, mood control, pain and sleep.

Phytocannabinoids are found in the trichome glands of the cannabis plant. The most notetable phytocannabinoids isolated in cannabis are tetrahydrocannabidinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). To date there are over 120 phytocannabinoids isolated from cannabis exhibiting varied therapeutic effects.
