[QUOTE="PowerSeed, post: 209865, member: 1364"] [B]Sativa[/B] They originally come from Colombia, Mexico, Thailand and Southeast Asia. Once flowering has begun, they can take anywhere from 10 to 16 weeks to fully mature. Flavors range from earthy to sweet and fruity. The high of a Sativa is cerebral, up and energetic. Sativa’s offer more of a “head buzz”. This type of high is the one most associated with hilarious fits of laughter, long discussions about nothing, enhanced audio and visual senses. You hear things in songs you’ve never heard before, see things in movies you’ve watched a dozen times but never noticed before. A brightly-lit malls becomes a whole new and exciting adventure. Therefore, smoking a pure Sativa or mostly Sativa hybrid will make you feel great! Energetic and social and ready for fun! And depending on the particular strain of Sativa-Indica cross you smoke, you may get a good measure of pain relief in the deal as well. Consuming (eating) either strain or hybrid of the two results in a stronger, longer-lasting high. But it doesn’t feel as good as smoking the herb does to many who have tried it. It’s a matter of experience and personal taste. It really depends on what effect you are looking for when making your selection and choosing a way to ingest it for your condition. [B]Indica[/B] Indicas originally come from the hash producing countries of the world like Afghanistan, Morocco, and Tibet. They are short dense plants, with broad leaves and often grow a darker green. After flowering starts they will be mature in 6 to 8 weeks. The buds will be thick and dense, with flavors and aromas ranging from pungent skunk to sweet and fruity. The smoke from an Indica is generally a body type high, relaxing and laid back. The “high” a person experiences when smoking a sufficient amount of pure or mostly pure Indica, such as Medicine Man or Warlock is more of a heavy “body buzz”. You may feel lethargic, tired, unwilling to attend to reality tasks. Very laid back, lazy. You may just want left alone to sit and think deep, intellectual thoughts as you enjoy the pain relief. You may find it very hard to stay awake as well, so this sort of strain would be good for those having trouble sleeping. This is the best sort of “high” for easing pain and most of the other symptoms these conditions. A good Indica/Sativa cross can also offer the best of both worlds. There are many breeders who work hard to develop strains that will accomplish just that to give you a great head high coupled with a relaxing and definitely medically beneficial strong body stone. Combining different indicas, different sativas or a combination thereof creates hybrids. The resulting hybrid strains will grow, mature and smoke in relationship to the indica-sativa percentages they end up containing. [B]Effects of Indica (lower THC, higher CBN/CBD): [/B] Indica generally more physical than cerebral (however, the relief of physical symptoms can have a positive psychological effect) Sedation, pain relief and relaxation Best for later in the day and bedtime Perhaps better for anxiety than depression [B]Benefits of Indica (lower THC, higher CBN/CBD): [/B] reduces pain muscle relaxant relieves spasms, reduces seizures reduces inflammation #006600 aids sleep reduces anxiety and stress reduces nausea stimulates appetite relieves headaches and migraines reduces intra-occular pressure bronchio-dilator and expectorant [B]Effects of Sativa (high THC, low CBN/CBD):[/B] More stimulating and uplifting Energizing and thought provoking Increases focus and creativity Supports immune system Best for use in daytime [B]Benefits of Sativa (high THC, low CBN/CBD): [/B] Reduces nausea Stimulates the appetite Fights drepression Positive, uplifting, cerebral effect Energizes and stimulates Promotes creativity Relieves headaches and migraines Relaxes muscles, relieves pain Acts as an expectorant [B]Hybrid Stain Crosses:[/B] Most cannabis seeds and medicine available today are from hybrids - crosses of Sativa and Indica varieties. This allows cultivators to enjoy and select for various desired characteristics of growth, appearance and effect. The genetics and hence the effects of one lineage will usually be dominant. For example: Indica-dominant crosses are for pain relief, with the sativa component helping with energy and activity levels. Sativa-dominant crosses are good for stimulating appetite, with the indica component helping to reduce body pain and increase relaxation. Cannabis has been proven helpful in relieving the symptoms of thousands of conditions, including: Pain from various ailments and injuries Arthritis, bursitis Migrains Multiple sclerosis Hepatitis C Fibromyalgia Nausea and low appetite HIV/AIDS Cancer, chemotherapy Crohn's Muscular dystrophy Epilepsy, parkinson's Asthma, emphysema Glaucoma and other intra-ocular disorders Skin diseases such as pruritis and psoriasis Back pain and muscle spasms Paraplegia and quadriplegia Insomnia and other sleep disorders Study finds THC promotes death of brain cancer cells and shrinks tumors * [B]Active Ingredients: (Cannabinoids) [/B] There are approximately 60 indentified cannabinoids and each of an infinite number of strains of cannabis has its own cannabinoid profile. The active cannabinoids each have unique physiological effects and many combinations actually appear to have synergystic and antagonistic effects. [I]Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol[/I] ([B]THC[/B]): Euphoric, stimulant, muscle relaxant, , anti-cancer, anti-epileptic, anti-emetic, anti-inflammatory, appetite stimulating, bronchio-dilating, hypotensive, anti-depressant and analgesic effects. [I]Tetrahydrocannabivarin[/I] ([B]THCV, THV[/B]), also known as tetrahydrocannabivarol: A non-psychoactive cannabinoid found naturally in Cannabis sativa. It is an analogue of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) with the sidechain shortened by two CH2 groups. THCV can be used as a marker compound to differentiate between the consumption of hemp products and synthetic THC (e.g., Marinol). THCV is found in largest quantities in Cannabis sativa subsp. sativa strains. Some varieties that produce propyl cannabinoids in significant amounts, over five percent of total cannabinoids, have been found in plants from South Africa, Nigeria, Afghanistan, India, Pakistan and Nepal with THCV as high as 53.69% of total cannabinoids.

[I]Cannabidiol[/I] ([B]CBD[/B]): A major constituent of medical cannabis. CBD represents up to 40% of extracts of the medical cannabis plant. Cannabidiol relieves convulsion, inflammation, anxiety, nausea, and inhibits cancer cell growth.

[I]Cannabinol[/I] ([B]CBN[/B]): A mildly psychoactive degradation of THC, it's primary effects are as an anti-epileptic, and to lower intra-ocular pressure. from: [URL="http://patientsmarijuana.org/Sativa_or_Indica.html"][I]Sativa vs. Indica[/I][/URL] [/QUOTE]
