Indica vs. Sativa - Has Cannabis Outgrown Legacy Terminology?

  • Indica, Sativa, and Hybrid may have been appropriate for describing the physical differences in plants. However, when it comes to categorizing the effects of cannabis many industry pros understand that these traditional methods may be a little too broad.
    Alec Dixon, Co-Founder of SC Labs, joins us to discuss the importance of knowing and understanding the terpene profile to get a better understanding of its effects.

    there actually are some producers in canada that do list the terpene content in their flower, so consumers can make an educated decision as to which products they would prefer, based on the effects they're after - the 'entourage effect'

    Hazes still raise my blood pressure and when they wear off I am extremely tired. Afghans and Kushes still kill my pain and and relax me.

      Now you must try another sativa because the haze types do not suit your chemistry.
      I hate the body stoned couch potato indica cultivars , i need energetic sativa type for daytime moving about the yard or house .
      Why smoke cannabis just for taste ?
      It is all about attitude adjustment from depressed to Euphoric and happy and active or body stoned pain killing indica cultivars .
      My first grow is the pure sativa Durban Poison for sure !
      It is a crime to create a bad strain in my opinion , i do not want a fudge sundae i want good cannabis !
      The pure strains cultivated for over a thousand years are being destroyed and lost by hybrid cultivators .
      Do not name it Wedding Cake , but name it Euphoria or Star Gazer !

    I'm 59 and I've been growing since I was probably around 10 and it was an outdoors and then I moved indoors when I got a little older in my 20s and from what I see is when we used to be able to clean our seeds out VS now. Yeah, it's better, but we've lost. We've lost a lot of. Of stuff that gets lost when you cross breed from the original strand we need seriginal strings to be able to choose from, to be able to make your own crosses in to see what happens, not what we have today or what we have. Today is a mixture of indigenous achievement. That's all it is there's no true end to get. There's no truth to sativa out there, no more. Trust me.

    im not convinced that terpenes are the key to the variation of psychoactive effects of different strains. it might be the 80 to 100 different cannabinoids and their combination that is the main driver of effect.
    though i suspect taste and smell is primarily terpenes

    what would be the maximum storing temperature? is it safe to keep cannabis in a fridge at the "hottest" stand? That's something like 11 degrees Celcius. Or is that too cold?

      From what I know, as long as it's in a dark cool place, the terpenes and cannabinoids will not be broken down. Honestly I get lazy and leave my grounded herb out on my tray, still smokes great!

    No DNA profiles have shown that the terms Sativa and Indica are anything other than a difference in phenotype not a provable genotype expression I put forward none will give us definitive answer as cannabis strains have been self modifying into what we term as hybrids quick example cannabis found in Afghanistan particularly in the hindu kush region are often termed as INDICA but as you travel further up the range the plants soon start expressing so called SATIVA characteristics and vary hugely to their lowland cousins I know as I have travelled there and tried a wide variety of local produce My main point is that in such a relatively small area in global terms both types exist meaning that the common conception that so called INDICA'S which are usually considered to be from that area suddenly become SATIVA'S just a few valleys away This is obviously just a phenotype not genotype expression I have seen classic INDICA structure growing in areas deemed to be specifically SATIVA environments and vice versa.All this without human intervention which has been a huge influence a cannabis strains globally for millennia We need to find a much more precise way of classifying the huge variety of what I consider to be just one massively hybridised genus namely cannabis.

      but there does seem to be a difference not only in appearence but of effect based on the distinction indica/sativa. the question then is what accounts for this if the plats are the same genotype? this bloke says its terpenes but i suspect its the variation of the 80 or so different types of cannabinoids.

    • @julianreiss9233

      Spot on the genotype is the same, just the environment affects all aspects of appearance and cannabinoids including terps within 20 km plants vary wildly Ive been to the Kush valley and there is so much variation even within each valley.@@jamesderoc6717
