sativa vs indica

Sativa VS Indica

Slowly the Stigma around weed is beginning to disappear.
Yet there are proffesionals who want to unlearn the true potential of THC.
Has the time come to look at weed differently?

Are we going to categorize weed differently?

Many new variations have been added in the last 50 years.
In several places on the world map, cannabis is now legal.
And if it has not been legalized it has been approved or tolerated
Because of this, many crossbreeds were created.
Wonderful new cannabis strains with great taste and smell sensations.
Weed with high THC content and high recreational value.
This is now normal.
There are also an awful lot of medicinal varieties available.
This is a beautiful development.
People with serious diseases can now get through life better thanks to these developments.
A Parkisons patient can now stop twitching thanks to weed.
People on their deathbed can now smoke medicinal weed in addition to morphine.
A beautiful exit during their last moments in this world.
It does not solve it but it does form a band-aid on the sore wound.

Going against the established order

The terms commonly used are : indica and sativa.
You must have heard this one passed by.
Now that more is known about weed, the names used for it are still just names.
The plant itself remains stigmatized.
This does not do justice to the positive effects of marijuana.
There research has shown that so much is possible with a cannabis plant.
Especially with genetics.
Developments will keep coming.

Usually when one wants to relax or needs to calm down one smokes an Indica variety.

Sativa is often used when one wants inspirational and creative effects.
These end goals often end up being the opposite.

An indica or a sativa after all?

Weed is usually divided into 2 categories.
Namely indica and sativa.
A sativa is a plant that often grows tall.
The leaves are often narrower.
The construction of a Sativa is sometimes reminiscent of a Christmas tree.
The lifespan of a Sativa is long.

An indica usually does not grow as tall as a sativa.
The leaves of an indica are wider.
The structure of the plant is more like a bush or shrub compared to the Christmas tree form of a sativa.
The lifespan of an Indica is shorter and the it produces a narcotic effect when smoked.

Because cannabis has been pushed into crime, it has gone underground.
This has stopped the scientific developments surrounding the cannabis plant.
The potency of cannabis is second to none.
This plant should be treated with respect just like any otherpiece of nature.
There is a preconceived opinion about the cannabis plant.
People are so stuck in the old thinking pattern and do not want to look beyond their nose.

How can you possibly know which variants give which effect?
One does this by determining the chemotype and genotype.
Chemotype is profile of chemicals and terpenes.
The genotype is the uniquegeneticprofile.

GENO & FENO

The particular kind of pleasure is down to one’s DNA.
A cannabis plant, like a child, contains a genetic copy from both parents.
Like a child, a cannabis plant can grow into something beautiful.
Something that can ultimately have a positive effect on this world.
Close to your self, for your self and for those around you.

Phenotypes are characteristics of the way a plant grows.

This can also be influenced by the environment.
Again just like a child, the environment in which it grows up is very important.
If you give it love and attention then that shines through in the cannabis plant.
Of note are these five points:
-The photoperiod
-Climate
-The Bottom
-The humidity
-The techniques used to grow the weed.

The characteristics of the phenotype can be seen in the silhouettes and shape of the leaves.
The chenotype can only be determined by performing a test.

The genetics of marijuana is not a precise science.
It’s like cooking sometimes.
The cook can try out all sorts of things and that’s where the tastiest dishes are created.
Crossing a plant with low THC content with a plant with high THC content results in seeds with the DNA of both parent plants.

During the growth process you can see the characteristics of each parent plant
As a result, the construction/shape of the cannabis plant is not a main indicator of its chemical composition.

This also applies to genetics.
A clone of the mother plant may also show abnormal characteristics.
Growing a cannabis plant in organic soil outdoors may look different and result in a different chemotype
than a cannabis grown indoors under grow lights.

Sativa, what is that?

There is an answer for that!
Are there really other genders?

To do so, one must look at genetics.
By juxtaposing the many varieties of cannabis.

The broad comparison research has led professionals to put it all under one gender.
Namely, the cannabis sativa.
So this includes industrial hemp.

It was decided to place all cannabis under the category of cannabis sativa.
Sativa means cultivated.
This is derived from Latin.
This is appropriate because the eventual applications in the recreational, medical and industrial fields do not come naturally.
Indica is also derived from Latin.
From the ancient Greek language, the original means India.
India is the founder of the psychoactive cannabis plant.

Cannabis sativa therefore stands for cultivated cannabis plant.
Sativa is a term that can mainly be used for the term industrial hemp.

It’s mainly because of the term sativa.
There are two meanings when people say cannabis.
You have the classification from a scientific point of view.
This is the knowledge that cannabis sativa has narrow leaves and grows tall lengthwise.
Indicas have broad leaves and generally do not grow very tall.
But if Jan and all are going to say that cultivated marijuana containing psychoactive resin should be called indicas, then you get a total of 4 different terms

NLD: Narrow-Leaf Drug – Cannabis indica, psychoactive, narrow leaf fingers.
BLD: Broad-Leaf Drug – Cannabis sativa, psychoactive, broad leaf fingers.
NLH: Narrow-Leaf Hemp – Cannabis indica, industrial hemp, not psychoactive, narrow leaf fingers.
BLH: Broad-Leaf Hemp – Cannabis sativa, industrial hemp, non-psychoactive, broad leaf fingers.

The relationship between humans and the cannabis plant is 12,000 years old.
One will never be able to completely figure out how crossbreeding occurred.
What we can say with certainty is: the modern cannabis plant has been subjected to a myriad of crossbreeding.

People consume marijuana primarily because of its terpenes, flavonoids and cannabinoids, such as CBN, THC and CBD.
This gives each cannabis plant a unique synergy.
In other words, the plant’s own character.

Weed is and always has been a beautiful plant.
It has so many functions.

We at thc-specialist.com want to promote the responsible use of marijuana.
We are also happy to inform you about all applications.
In this way one learns something more and we all become a little wiser.
