Kronic dives into everything you need to know about Indica versus Sativa and why calling plants Indica and Sativa really aren’t the proper names for these wonderful plants. 

There are notable differences in cannabis plant structures and effects when you grow both indicas and sativas. We’ll now take a quick look at what you can expect with indica vs. sativa seeds:

Plant structure: Indica plants are shorter, bushier, and denser, whereas sativa plants grow taller and skinnier with longer branches.
Yields: Indica yields on average are lower than those from sativa strains.
Aromas and flavors: Most indica plants produce earthy and musky aromas and flavors. Crops from cannabis sativa seeds tend to be fruitier and sweeter in smells and taste.
Effects: Sativas are known for energizing head-highs and help you feel focused and creative, making them ideal daytime strains. Indicas are suitable for nighttime consumption as they produce sleepy, relaxing body stones, with feelings of calmness and happiness.
Medicinal benefits: Although both strains can aid various ailments, indica seeds are more widely cultivated for medicinal purposes due to their higher CBD content.

Sativa weed strains are known for providing consumers with an invigorating, full-headed high, with the best Sativa strains being known for giving bursts of energy mixed with a cerebral high. The strongest Sativa strains generally have extremely high THC levels, are often high yielding cannabis strains and can be easy to grow. Naturally, you will find difficult Sativa seeds to grow, this is not just dependent on whether the strain is Sativa or not but more so on other traits and the type of seed.
