Cannabis Strain Guide: Understanding the Different Strains

Cannabis Strain Guide: Understanding the Different Strains

How do cannabis strains differ from one another? Follow our cannabis strain guide so you can learn more about which strain is best for you.

Keyword(s): cannabis strain guide

“What are you looking for?” If you don’t know that much about types of marijuana strains, this question posed by a well-meaning budtender can cause anxiety. Um, something to get me high?

That may have worked for your dealer in high school, but it won’t work in modern times where the choices fill cases and walls full of jars. You need to know what you’re looking for, what type of high you want, and strains you like or dislike.

That’s why we’ve created this Cannabis strain guide for you. Learn everything you need to know about how strains are classified and made below.

What are The Types?

There are three ways we categorize weed. Indicas, Sativas, and Hybrids. Each one has different physical characteristics, and in the case of hybrids, some of both.

Indica

Let’s say you were wandering around your neighbor’s house and you open the door to see – a bunch of weed plants. Some are low and bushy while others soar to the sky. Do you know which is Indica and which is Sativa?

The short one is Indica. Someone once told me they remember it because the country of India is short and wide (no shade to India).

There are two properties people seek out in marijuana. THC and CBD. You’ve seen CBD oil all over your newsfeed as the next cure-all. CBD doesn’t get you high – that’s THC.

Indica has a higher percentage of CBD than it does THC. This means you get less of an active high. When you think of someone smoking an Indica blend, that’s the kind of uber relaxed stoner who can’t leave the couch.

People who use Indica (especially for medicinal purposes) are less nauseous, have less pain, get the munchies, and they can more fully physically relax, which leads to mental relaxation.

Indica is the type of strain most medical marijuana patients use to treat unfortunate symptoms or side effects.

Sativa

Let’s go back to that room in your neighbor’s house with the short and the tall plants. If the short ones are Indica, the tall ones are Sativas.

Sativa has the long, skinny leaves you usually see on pot stickers and paraphernalia. Not that Indica’s aren’t the same shape, they’re just more stubby.

Smoking a Sativa gives you a different type of high. It’s less medicinal for pain-related disorders and more for mental issues.

When people smoke Sativas, they’re not so much couch potatoes. They’re more the type to get into really in depth, yet strange discussions. Many people who smoke weed before work or daily activities (not that we condone being high at work) smoke Sativas because they take the edge off without making it difficult to function.

Its specific high characteristics include reduced anxiety, sunny mood, less pain, more creativity, and more social behavior.

If you want, you can think of it as Indica treating the body, while Sativa treats the creative brain. The relaxant vs. the wacky tobacky fueled artist.

Type 3: Hybrids

The idea of hybrids is like the idea of fantasy football. What would happen if you took the best of separate entities (plants/teams) and put them together to make one super-team?

That’s exactly what growers and breeders do. Some of the most famous strains are hybrids of other famous parents.

When you walk into a dispensary and ask for a hybrid, you generally face three types. There’s the fifty-fifty Indica Sativa blend – a true hybrid.

Or you can get a hybrid with a higher percentage of Sativa, say 60% to 40% Indica. The same works the other way around.

If you’re looking to branch into the category you don’t usually smoke, starting with a hybrid is a good way to see if you like it. You can start with a high regular strain and introduce the new one gradually.

Or smoke a half-and-half – it’s up to you.

Breeding

Let’s talk about how they create hybrid plants. No, it’s not when a mommy plant and a daddy plant love each other very much.

People are the ones that breed hybrids. That means they take the pollen of the male and impregnate the female with it. Very sexy.

The plants they chose have a purpose, it’s not random. If people are loving one Sativa for how energetic it makes them, they may breed it with a sleepy Indica to give it a kick. Now you have a strain of Indica that won’t knock you out but still makes you relaxed.

The same is true with tastes and colors of strains. There’s a reason you hear things like “purple haze” or “Blueberry Kush”. The plants from those strains have a purple and blue tinge, respectively.

The limits of breeding strains? At this point, it’s only our imagination. There’s pretty much nothing budtenders can’t create. Since both Indica and Sativa are from the same plant – they’re related, all the right parts fit.

Cannabis Strain Guide

Next time you’re at the dispensary, or before you go, figure out what kind of high you’re looking for. Something more relaxed and all-encompassing? That’s an Indica.

Or maybe you want something to take the edge off but need to be high-functioning. That’s a Sativa. Hybrids are a bit of both, some more different than the others.

We hope you enjoyed our Cannabis strain guide. Feel free to bookmark this page or screenshot the next time you have a strain choice.

You control your high by picking what you smoke. Which strain will you choose?

10 Incredible Benefits of Using CBD for Dogs

10 Incredible Benefits of Using CBD for Dogs

CBD has a variety of benefits, even for your pet. If you’re dog is suffering from any ailments, here are some reasons to consider using CBD for dogs.

Keyword(s): cbd for dogs

Almost half of the pet dogs in Canada suffer from a health complaint.

Every dog owner wants to help their pet to recover quickly, or relieve any chronic symptoms. However, it can be difficult to know how best to help them.

CBD could be just the solution. Read on for 10 of the incredible benefits of CBD for dogs.

1. Relaxation without the High

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound found in hemp and cannabis. The psychoactive properties in cannabis come from the compound THC or tetrahydrocannabinol.

Most CBD oils are pure and only contain the CBD compound. As such, they provide all the benefits without the THC.

Most of these oils are actually made from hemp rather than marijuana and THC is not found in hemp. In short, this means that your dog won’t get the ‘high’ from CBD oil, they will only feel the relaxation benefits.

2. Helps Fight Cancer

CBD and other compounds found in cannabis and hemp have been shown to have an ‘anti-tumor’ effect. CBD has even helped to stop cancer cells from growing. It also has proven increased tumor cell death rates.

It aids your pet’s immune system’s ‘killer cells’ to kill off cancer. It does this by stopping cancer cells from being able to produce energy.

Studies have shown that its anti-tumor properties slow and stop tumor cell production.

3. Reduces Anxiety

Much like their human companions, dogs and pets can suffer from anxiety and stress. They can even suffer from specific phobias!

Many studies have shown that CBD can help manage these conditions. It can help with generally anxious pets to relax them. CBD oil does this by normalizing and stabilizing the chemical fluctuations in your pet’s brain.

It can also help where a traumatic experience or phobia has caused anxiety. The relaxation benefits can help when rehabilitating and overcoming the phobia.

4. Treats Seizures and Epilepsy

There are estimates that around 5% of dogs suffer from seizures. Conventional treatments include Primidone and Potassium Bromide.

Many of the conventional treatments for seizures in dogs come with side effects. While these treatments are effective against seizures, each dog is different. For some, they can cause liver and organ damage.

Sometimes, your pet can be resistant to these treatments, and they won’t work at all.

CBD is a natural anti-convulsant. It can reduce the intensity of seizures. It reduces the electrical disruptions in your pet’s brain that causes the seizures.

The only proven side effect of CBD for pets is that it can cause tiredness in some animals.

5. Pain and Inflammation Relief

According to some estimates, canine arthritis can affect 1 in 5 dogs. With an estimated 5.9 million pet dogs in Canada, that is over 1 million dogs.

There is a pain receptor in a dogs brain called a vanilloid receptor. This controls swelling and pain.

CBD oils can interact with the neurons in your dog’s brain and block the vanilloid receptor. This stops the neurons from turning on. This prevents the receptor from sending signals to your pet’s body.

In turn, this reduces pain and inflammation. It can be a great way to ease inflammatory joint conditions like arthritis. The improvements are present after a few days in some cases!

6. Reduces Autoimmune Diseases

As with humans, dogs can suffer from allergies. CDB can help reduce the production of inflammatory cytokines. These can cause hypersensitivities, allergies, and autoimmunity within your dog.

It can suppress Th17 dominance, a major cause of autoimmune diseases.
CBD also reduces the production of inflammatory macrophages. This, in turn, reduces chronic inflammation.

It has also shown to be a powerful antioxidant. Some studies have indicated that it could be even more potent than vitamins C and E.

7. Increases Appetite and Helps Nausea

As dogs age, they often begin to lose their appetite and lose weight. Some medical treatments, like conventional cancer treatments, can also reduce cravings and cause nausea.

If your dog won’t eat or is on a treatment that suppresses the appetite, CBD can help. It has proven to stimulate the appetite.

Your pet might not be eating because they are feeling nauseous. Or they might have ingested something that left them feeling sick.

Just like in human trials, animal studies have shown CBD oil to relieve nausea and vomiting. It is even effective even if drugs or toxins caused the symptoms.

8. Helps Prevent Inflammatory Bowel Disease

CBD oil can help treat the symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease. Experts are now finding that it can also help to prevent colitis in animals.

For dogs already suffering from irritable bowel disease, CBD can be helpful. It has proven to help restore gut motility.

9. Helps With Neurodegenerative Diseases

For dogs suffering from spine and nerve issues such as degenerative myelopathy, CBD looks promising. It has proven to help human patients with diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. CBD does this by protecting the brain’s cells from increased toxicity.

While few studies have been undertaken on dogs with neurodegenerative diseases, we know that dogs and most mammals react similarly to CBD to humans. This is because we all have an Endocannabinoid System.

In studies that have been undertaken on elderly dogs, CBD has proven to protect the brain from cell death caused by free radicals and toxins.

10. Improved Cardiovascular Health

CBD has proven to support heart health. Studies have shown that it can reduce the damage done, including irregular heart rates and damaged blood vessels.

It also protects blood vessels from damage and helps to dilate the arteries. It even helps reduce blood pressure and increased heart rate caused by anxiety and stress.

CBD for Dogs

As you can see, there are many benefits of CBD for dogs.

Whether your pet is suffering from an ongoing condition or recovering from recent trauma, CBD can help. It can even be taken as a supplement to boost their overall health.

If you think CBD can help your dog, you need to check out our range of CBD products specifically for dogs. At Green Society, we provide only the highest quality CBD products, so you can be assured that your dog will receive the very best.

The Beginner’s Guide to Buying Weed Online in Canada

The Beginner’s Guide to Buying Weed Online in Canada

Are you pressed for time and can’t make it to the dispensary in person? Or do you just not like the idea of going into a weed shop? Don’t worry. Canada offers the sale of safe, legal weed, edibles, and more online. Check out this article to see how it works.

Keyword(s): buying weed online

You want weed, but you don’t want to leave the house to get it.

We understand!

Weed delivered to your home is much better than the hassle of leaving the house and finding a dispensary to buy your weed.

The good news is, you can get weed, edibles, and seeds online! But there are some best practices to help you navigate getting legal weed from the internet.

Here is your beginner’s guide to buying weed online in Canada.

Check the Laws

First things first: check the laws for your province.

Here in Canada, marijuana legalization laws take effect 17 October 2018.

It’s true! You no longer have to fear the law to have your weed . . . and smoke it, too.

But pay attention. Depending on where you live, laws will vary.

In general, you can have up to 30 grams of dried cannabis if you are an adult 18 years or older. Federal laws also apply to allowable amounts of edibles and seeds.

Do a little research before you’re high. Then when that high takes over, you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Don’t Leave a Trail

Even with new legalization laws in place, you might worry about leaving a marijuana trail to your home.

Paranoia need not ruin your chill vibe!

When you buy pot online, you can purchase it anonymously.

Here’s how (again, set this up before your high kicks in):

  • Set up a digital currency account using Bitcoin. It’s an open-source currency, not controlled by anyone.
    Find an online dispensary that accepts Bitcoin, and the money can’t trace back to you.
  • Use an encrypted network that allows anonymous communication. A free software like Tor helps you browse the internet while keeping “watchers” from seeing where you are and what you do online.
  • Connect to the internet with a VPN. A Virtual Private Network (VPN) allows access blocked by censorship or filters. VPNs also keep your information off of Wifi networks where you can be monitored and traced.

Know Before You Buy Your High

When you walk into a dispensary, helpful people point you to what you want.

When searching online, the options can get confusing.

Here are a few basic tips to narrow down your options when you buy marijuana online:

Indica and Sativa

Weed is available in different strains.

  • Looking for relaxation or pain relief? You want Cannabis Indica.
  • Need a creativity bump and a mood boost? Go for Cannabis Sativa.

For the best of both worlds, you’ll also find hybrid strains.

Within these two main strains, your find a variety of strain types. Try different ones until you find the one you like best. Then enjoy!

To Smoke or To Eat

If you’re already high, we know you’re ready for a snack. We recommend ordering a pizza.

And when it comes to your preferred form of marijuana, you also have edible options online.

You don’t have to be a smoker to enjoy weed.

You might think pot edibles are only the brownies you see in movies. But there is a wide range of recipes for consuming marijuana if brownies aren’t your thing.

Too buzzed to bake? Buy your edibles online. You’ll find everything from teas to candies to capsules.

The Best Buzz

But which is the best buzz? Smoking or eating?

That’s a great question, and it brings up a good point. The “best” buzz depends on your preference.

Many people choose edibles because they want their weed without the smoke. But smoking your favorite strain of weed is preferable for others.

Note that most edibles have a higher concentrate of THC than smoking. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the psychoactive part of marijuana that makes you high.

Be sure you start slowly with edibles. While you enjoy your delicious marijuana snack, you’ll reach your high quicker than from smoking weed.

Quality is of Concern

No one wants bad weed. But unfortunately, it’s out there.

No matter your preferred form of marijuana, be sure it is good quality and comes from a reputable online dispensary.

When you go to a physical dispensary, there are cues you see and smell to help you find the best quality weed.

If a strain smells dusty or damp, stay away from it. Also, be sure and avoid weed on the bottom shelf. It’s usually the lowest-quality marijuana in the shop.

But when buying online, you don’t see shelves, and you can’t smell before you submit your order.

When ordering weed online, do a few things:

  • Look for a well-designed website with easy-to-find information
  • Ask questions of the online support. Note how quickly they respond and if they do a good job of answering your questions
  • Check reviews from others online
  • Check with other weed users you know and trust
  • Look for local online dispensaries. Check them out and see if they seem legitimate and well-maintained

When it comes to edibles, look for packaging that lists all ingredients. Lists of ingredients should include notes about THC levels.

You need to know what you’re ingesting or inhaling when it comes to the quality of your weed. Do some research for a more enjoyable high later.

Say “High” to Buying Weed Online

Buying weed online and having it delivered to your door is the best thing since they invented pizza delivery.

You now have the best of two worlds: the arrival of food and pot without leaving your home.

Prepare yourself for the new Canada legalization laws taking effect in October 2018. Research now, know your online dispensary, set up your Bitcoin, and let the haze begin!

We’re here to help your high! Our online dispensary is loaded with marijuana to smoke or ingest as an edible. We specialize in quality cannabis, the best customer service, and fast delivery.

Whether you are a recreational user or you use marijuana to help with medical conditions and easing pain, our store is available for you 24/7.

7 Surprising Facts About Marijuana Edibles

7 Surprising Facts About Marijuana Edibles

Consider this the ultimate guide to marijuana edibles. What forms can they take? How strong are they? How are they made? What dosage should you take? All of this, plus more, answered in this informative article for the novice or the expert.

Keyword(s): marijuana edibles

We’ve all heard crazy stories about people eating too much of a pot brownie and getting high out of their mind thinking their dog can speak to them or that the TV is melting as they watched it (No? Just us?)

But what else do you know about marijuana edibles? Did you know that you can make edible marijuana gummies, beverages, and cookies? Do you know about the different potency of edibles? What about if they mix well with other drugs?

If you’re not sure about these things, don’t know too much about edibles, or even asking yourself ‘what are edibles?’, then keep reading. We’ve compiled 7 facts about edibles that will give you all the basic information you need about making, using, and understanding edible marijuana.

1. They’re More Than Brownies

We alluded to this earlier, but it might surprise you to learn that edible marijuana is more than pot brownies. You can have all sorts of marijuana-laced food delicacies like weed gummies, weed cookies, weed chocolate, weed lollipops, and almost anything else you can think of.

You can also have weed beverages like teas, tinctures, coffee, and more. Don’t forget edible capsules, liquids, and drops.

2. Different Strains, Different Highs

You can experience different types of highs when smoking different strains of marijuana, and you can get different highs from different types of edibles as well. Edibles are laced with different doses of the chemicals within weed, particularly THC and CBD.

Edibles high in THC will make you feel, well, high. THC is the psychoactive chemical in weed that gives you that “high” feeling that marijuana is so well-known for.

CBD, on the other hand, won’t make you feel high at all. It’s non-psychoactive. But it can have a range of benefits from calming anxiety to pain relief.

You can even get edibles that have no THC at all and only have high concentrations of CBD. These edibles are great for people who are looking for the medical benefits of weed without having to get high.

You’ll also need to know the difference between the two main types of weed: sativa and indica. Sativa infused edibles will give you more of an “energetic” high while indica will give you more of a “chill” or “mellow” high.

3. Edible Cannabis is Usually More Potent than Smoking

Because edibles concentrate the chemicals within weed into a usually small edible package, edibles are more potent than “regular” weed. And since edibles are usually tasty, it’s quite easy to ingest a larger dose of weed than you normally would take when smoking.

Edibles also affect everyone in a different way. Be careful when experimenting with edibles. Start small and work your way up before downing an entire brownie.

4. You Shouldn’t Mix Edibles with Other Drugs

You shouldn’t mix edible marijuana with other drugs, especially alcohol. Alcohol can increases the psychoactive effect of THC, which might sound good, but it actually isn’t fun. It usually makes you feel “too high” and gives you an intense feeling of nausea, which is definitely not fun.

5. Typical Serving Size

The typical serving size for an adult individual is 10 mg. However, you should probably start lower than this if it’s your first time trying edibles.

Everyone has a different metabolism, which means you’ll digest and react to edibles differently than your friend who will be different from their friend, etc.

You can’t judge how you’ll react to a serving size until you go for it.

So start slow with a lower dose somewhere around 5 mg. You can always eat more of the edible, but you can’t go back after eating too much.

6. Dosing Can Be Tricky

Serving size can be incredibly difficult to determine when it comes to edibles. If you buy store-bought edibles, it should list the dose. However, everyone’s body will digest the edible at a different rate. You and your friend could eat the same amount and they could feel like they’re on another planet and you might not feel high at all.

That being said, you should still follow our advice from earlier: start slow and work your way up. Estimate the correct serving size based on the listed dose of the edible you bought or calculate it based on how much you used in your homemade edibles.

Then, start off with a small piece and wait about an hour. Gauge how you feel. If it’s kicked in, decide whether you want to have more to get high. If you don’t feel anything at all, you can safely have a bit more so you’ve had a full serving size.

The most important thing is to gauge your personal reaction and not the reaction of your friends doing it with you since everyone is different. For every new type of edible you try, you should try to test it out nice and slow so you can know what dose will work for you.

7. You Can Get Too High from Edibles

Edibles are no different from smoking in this sense: you can get too high. Actually, it’s quite easy to get too high when using edibles since you can easily eat a whole brownie too quickly or accidentally eat more than a serving size of gummies accidentally.

The important thing to keep in mind if you get too high is that there’s nothing to worry about: you can’t “overdose” on weed. You’ll just feel very high, a bit nauseous, anxious, and overwhelmed.

If you’re feeling this way, take some deep breaths and have a glass of water. Sometimes the best thing to do is just go to bed. Sleeping off the high will make you feel much better.

Marijuana Edibles: 7 Surprising Facts

Marijuana edibles might seem like a whole new world of information to understand, but once you know these basic facts, they’re pretty simple to figure out. Whether you’re a pot brownie or a CBD gummy kind of person, edibles are a great way to ingest weed.

Indica & Sativa: What’s The Difference?

When you’re buying cannabis, you should know the difference between Sativa and Indica. These two strains have different properties and effects. While Indica cannabis will make you feel more relaxed, stress-free, and sleepy, Sativa cannabis is more uplifting and invigorating, giving you a burst of creativity and energy.

Both of these strains come from unique species of plants which look and grow differently. The two can also be crossbred to create Hybrid cannabis. Hybrid strains offer some of the effects and properties of both Indica and Sativa strains.

So what are the key differences between sativa and indica and which one should you smoke? Let’s take an in-depth look.

Cannabis Indica Effects

When smoking indica strains, you can expect a much more relaxing and sedating high. These strains are the ones which put you “in da couch”- you might even feel too mellow to get up.

Indica strains have more CBD in comparison to Sativa strains. CBD is the cannabinoid which gives you most of the medical benefits of marijuana. Indica marijuana is often used to treat chronic pain, insomnia, anxiety, nausea, and stress.

Indica strains are also great for smoking recreationally. If you’re looking for a strain that will mellow you out while you relax on the couch and watch TV or listen to music, indica is the way to go.

Cannabis Sativa Effects

In contrast to indica strains, sativa strains are much more mentally stimulating. You will feel more positive, energetic, and creative. If you want to get high and still be active, then you’re much better served by sativa.

Sativa strains have more THC and less CBD than Indica strains. THC is responsible for the psychoactive effects of marijuana. It’ll heighten your senses and stimulate your mind. Those who want to take on creative pursuits while high can benefit from sativa strains. It’s also a good choice for those just looking to appreciate movies and music in a different way.

Sativa strains also have medical benefits. Thanks to the uplifting effects, they can help prevent anxiety, depression, and improve your mood overall. They can also be helpful for chronic pain and insomnia.

What are Hybrid Strains?

Hybrid strains offer the best of both worlds. Smoking these can give you the relaxing effects of indica cannabis along with the mind-stimulation from sativa cannabis. All of these strains are different, so some are more indica-dominant, some sativa-dominant, and some give a balanced 50/50.

If you like the effects of both sativa and indica strains and aren’t sure which to go with, hybrid strains are usually a safe bet. They’re ideal for both medical and recreational use. Some of the most popular marijuana strains, such as Black Diamond and Gorilla Glue #4, are hybrid strains.

What’s the difference between growing Sativa and Indica cannabis?

growing sativa vs indica

Sativa and Indica plants are also different, both in appearance and in the way they grow.

Cannabis Indica plants are shorter and bushier with wider leaves. Sativa plants are taller and thinner with narrower leaves. Hybrid plants can exhibit properties of both Sativa and Indica plants.

Indica plants take around 10-12 weeks to produce buds compared to up to 16 weeks for Sativa plants. Indica plants also require less space and maintenance, making them much easier to grow.

However, many people prefer to grow Sativa cannabis due to much higher yields. A Sativa plant produces anywhere from 3 ounces to 1 pound of cannabis per plant compared to 1.5-2 ounces for Indica plants. Although Sativa plants take more time and effort to grow, the pay off is much better.

Best Sativa strains to smoke

If you want the uplifting effects of marijuana and an enjoyable psychoactive high, these popular Sativa strains will do the job.

  • Agent Orange – This strong sativa-dominant strain is perfect for relieving anxiety, depression, and low moods. You’ll experience a potent, uplifting high that will make you feel positive and re-energized.
  • Green Crack – Green Crack is named for its stimulating effects. You’ll feel happy, stimulated, and hyper-focused. This pure sativa strain is hugely popular.
  • Moby Dick – Another potent sativa strain that can reach THC levels of up to 23%. Smoking Moby Dick will make you feel motivated, positive, and just plain high.

You can check out our full selection of Sativa strains in our online store.

Best Indica strains to smoke

If you want a strain of cannabis that will help you relax, destress, and give you some powerful medical benefits, here are some of our most popular Indica strains.

  • LA Confidential – A potent indica-dominant strain. Ideal for treating pain, anxiety, and stress, as well as giving you an enjoyable relaxing and sedating high.
  • BC Kush – BC Kush is a 100% pure indica strain and two-time Cannabis Cup Winner. You can expect all the relaxing effects and medical benefits of regular indica strains as well as some psychoactive benefits thanks to its 15-20% THC levels.
  • Death Bubba Kush – An indica-dominant strain with powerful effects. You’ll instantly feel more energized and uplifted, but the sativa effects will soon transition to a strong sense of relaxation. Perfect for those who want a long, peaceful sleep as well as a smooth taste.

We also offer popular strains such as Panda OG, Mango Kush, and Northern Lights. You can view our full selection of indica strains in our online store.

Should I smoke Indica, Sativa, or Hybrid strains?

smoking cannabis

The kind of strain you choose to smoke all depends on what kind of marijuana you prefer. If you want to mellow out and relax, indica strains are a better choice. If you want a burst of energy and motivation, sativa strains are better. If you want to feel the effects of both, try out a hybrid strain.

These strains can also differ in taste. Indica strains generally taste sweeter, with undertones of fruits and berries. Sativa strains are more earthy with a pine flavor.

You can also buy variety packs of marijuana. These allow you to try all kinds of different strains so you can decide first hand which one is best for you.

Conclusion

Both sativa and indica cannabis can provide an enjoyable and beneficial high. If you prefer to chill out and get a good night’s sleep, then you can’t go wrong with Indica marijuana. Sativa marijuana is better suited to those who want a creative and uplifting buzz. Hybrid strains can give you the best of both worlds.

Amateur growers will prefer Indica plants due to their small size and ease of growing. However, experienced growers with more time to spend can enjoy the high yields produced by Sativa plants.

Many marijuana lovers enjoy a mix of both sativa and indica strains. You may like to wake and bake with a sativa-dominant strain and smoke an indica-dominant strain before bed. There’s no harm in trying out all varieties and seeing which you like best.

Because there’s a high percentage of CBD in these, you don’t need to use a lot. They come in bottles with a dropper so you can microdose it. Much like with oil, you can ingest by putting a small amount under your tongue. CBD Tinctures are also ideal for mixing into your food or beverages. You can add it to coffee, salads, pasta, and all kinds of other foods and drinks.

CBD can also come in the form of CBD Topicals. These are creams and salves that can be applied directly to the skin. Many patients prefer using CBD in this form as you can apply it directly to the affected area. Topicals are also effective. One study found that transdermal CBD gel significantly helped to reduce joint pain and inflammation for arthritis patients. Wellness provides a pure CBD creme that’s great for everyday use.

What’s the best way to take CBD?

All of these methods will give you the same benefits for your health, so how you choose to take it is purely down to personal preference.

If you want the easiest method, then taking CBD Capsules requires nothing more than swallowing a pill. If you want it to be a little more enjoyable, try some tasty CBD Edibles or add some CBD Oils or Tinctures to your food.

Those who enjoy vaping will prefer CBD E-Juices. These come in various flavors allowing for a smooth and efficient way to get your CBD.

If your pet is experiencing chronic pain or anxiety, then try out some of our healthy and safe CBD treats for pets. These give you pets the same wellness benefits humans get from CBD.

If you want to reap the medical benefits of CBD but still enjoy getting high, there’s plenty of options. Many of our CBD products, such as capsules and oils, can also come in varieties with added THC. These give you the enjoyable high you’d expect from marijuana as well as a high dose of CBD. Indica strains are also ideal for those who want a relaxing and sedating high with a lot of CBD.

Conclusion

If you enjoy marijuana for its medical benefits, then CBD products can give you a concentrated dose without THC. These can be ingested in all kinds of ways, from eating to vaping or even just taking a pill. It’s easier than ever for patients to get a dose of CBD in a safe and easy manner without any risk of becoming intoxicated.

Marijuana grading: what does A, AA, AAA mean?

marijuana grading scale

When buying marijuana, you’ll often find it graded by these different categories. The grade a product gets is based on various factors, including the size of the buds, trichome density, and strength of the odor. In basic terms, A is your bare basic bud while AAA+ is premium quality marijuana.

Here’s what you can expect from the different grades of marijuana:

  • A – While you can still expect a good high, A grade flower will be less dense in trichomes, less pungent, and have smaller buds. If you want the bare basic quality, you can get A grade marijuana at a good cost.
  • AA – Mid-range quality products with a decent quality of buds and trichomes. While it won’t be the best looking or most potent marijuana, you’ll still get a quality product that will deliver an enjoyable high.
  • AAA – Premium quality marijuana. You can expect dense trichomes, large buds, and a pungent odor from AAA grade products. This is usually an indicator that you’ll get a smoother taste and a stronger high from high-quality, fresh cannabis.

Rankings can also go higher, and plus or minus grades are often used to indicate where a product fits on the spectrum. While you can enjoy products of all grades, marijuana connoisseurs will prefer the highest quality possible of AAAA+. Our top-shelf cannabis collection consists of AAAA+ grade classified strains which meet a variety of requirements to qualify as premium grade marijuana.

canada marijuana

Many patients have used online marijuana dispensaries in Canada for years. Buying online allows you to get marijuana without any hassle or interference, so there’s nothing to bar you from getting cannabis in a safe and legal manner.

However, you must adhere to certain Canada cannabis laws. Most importantly, don’t provide marijuana to minors, don’t drive while intoxicated, and don’t smoke in public places unless they have a government license for public consumption.

Providing you keep under the possession limit of 30 grams and consume marijuana in a private residence or property, you won’t face any legal trouble.

How do I know if an online marijuana dispensary is legit?

Mail-order marijuana sites are becoming increasingly popular, and although many are perfectly safe and legit, there are some scam websites to watch out for.

Avoid new websites without real contact details or reviews. If a site doesn’t have a proven record of selling to customers, it’s not worth entering your details.

FOR THE LOVE OF CANNABIS INDICA

FOR THE LOVE OF CANNABIS INDICA

The world-acclaimed Cannabis indica, formerly known as Cannabis sativa forma indica, is an annual flowering plant generally believed to be an offshoot of Cannabis which comes from a family of flowering plants known as Cannabaceae. Many plants in the Cannabaceae family are as tall as trees while Cannabis falls into the category that is characteristically herbaceous – a shrub-like herb.

Though arguments and debates have trailed the path of the Cannabis plant, with the most intense centered on the difference between Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa, a common attribute possessed by both nomenclatures is the presence of Tetrahydrocannabinol and Cannabinoids present in the resins secreted by the glandular hairs of the plants.

THC or CBD; which is more important?

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the chemical constituent that gives C. indica its psychoactive property which exerts its effect on the mind of a person either for euphoria, hallucination, relaxation, or any other out-of-the-world feeling. Be that as it may, the Cannabinoid (CBC) constituent of C. indica makes it useful for medicinal purposes, especially in palliative care and for therapeutic purposes.

Research has shown that Cannabis indica has less of THC and more of CBC, making it the choicest in the medical world, in addition to being a recreational drug. Outside medicine, it is popularly called Marijuana or (Indian) Hemp.
