Cannabis 101: Sativa Weed Strains

 

What is Cannabis?

Cannabis (aka marijuana, weed, pot, ganja, bud, reefer) is a kind of plant that is used for its psychoactive and medicinal properties. Marijuana contains cannabinoids such as THC, CBD and CBN that interact with the body in ways that induce feelings of euphoria and relaxation. Cannabis plants can be broken down into subcategories such as indica, sativa, hybrid and ruderalis. 

 

What are Sativa Weed Strains?

Sativa strains are a subcategory of the Cannabis plant family and are primarily more prevalent in hot and dry climates with long summers. Sativa weed is characterized by tall plants with large, conical fluffy buds, and tend to take longer to flower, making longer summers handy. Typically, sativa strains contain a lower dose of CBD and CBN and higher ratios of THC compared to other cannabis types. 

 

What is the Difference Between Sativa, Indica, and Hybrid Strains?

Unlike sativa weed, indica flower contains higher proportions of CBD and CBN. Indica weed strains also tend to grow much shorter, bushier and take less time to flower than sativa strains. The buds are smaller and more densely packed, and indica strains lead to more of a body high.  Hybrid strains offer traits from both sativa and indica marijuana plants.

 

What does Being High on Sativa Weed Feel Like?

Sativa weed strains often induce uplifting feelings of happiness and overall mood. Sativa weed is generally stimulating and affects the mind for a more cerebral high. This is what makes it great for daytime use. 

 

What are the Medical Uses for Sativa Weed?

Medical marijuana patients use sativa weed strains for a variety of reasons. Sativa weed is typically used throughout the day to combat symptoms of anxiety, stress, depression, lethargy, ADHD, PTSD, inflammation, and pain. 

 

What are the Side Effects of Sativa Weed?

When taking too much at one time, bouts of dizziness, paranoia, nausea, anxiety, headaches and lethargy can possibly occur. However, these negative effects are rare and often times subside rather quickly. Dry mouth, red eyes and increased heart rate are more prevalent issues, but are very minor and often go unnoticed. 

 

Is Cannabis Safe?

Cannabis is generally deemed a safe drug compared to many other substances out there. Weed does come with its own risks though. It is recommended to be responsible when taking marijuana and no it in moderation. 

 

How to Smoke Cannabis

Break the buds up and roll them into a nice fat joint and light it, simple as that. Or for less traditional methods, smoking weed in a bong, pipe or vaporizer are other common ways.

 

What are Good Alternatives to Sativa Flowers?

For something stronger, cannabis concentrates are great options. These products include hash, shatter, budder, live resin, THC Oil, THC Distillate, and vape cartridges. Weed edibles are also great alternatives for those not wanting to smoke cannabis products. If you want the benefits of cannabinoids but don’t wish to get high, then CBD products are worth a shot.
