However, the truth is that this plant is so interesting that we do not find any topic that we do not find appropriate to discuss and report on. So, today we will talk to you about the typologies <strong>\"sativa\" or \"indica\"<\/strong> and the effects it generates in the organism.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cannabis is considered a <strong>monotypic genus\" plant,<\/strong> that is to say that there is only one species in its genus. However, it is commonly spoken of three typologies: sativa, indica and ruderalis that, in reality, are subspecies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What's going on? In reality, the difference between these three typologies is that each of them has some <strong>particular characteristics<\/strong> that make them the choice of growers all over the world. The two most chosen among these growers, as we have mentioned, are sativa and indica.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_78 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Contents\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/cubebcn.com\/en\/indica-o-sativa-differences-between-cannabic-typologies\/#%C2%BFQue_diferencia_sativa_de_indica\" >What is the difference between sativa and indica?<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-4' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-4'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/cubebcn.com\/en\/indica-o-sativa-differences-between-cannabic-typologies\/#Clima_cultivo_lugares_de_origen_y_apariencia_fisica\" >Climate, cultivation, places of origin and physical appearance<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/cubebcn.com\/en\/indica-o-sativa-differences-between-cannabic-typologies\/#Conoce_mas_sobre_cannabis_en_Spannabis\" >Learn more about cannabis at Spannabis&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%BFQue_diferencia_sativa_de_indica\"><\/span><strong>What is the difference between sativa and indica?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing to know is that, although there are three types, they are actually of the same species. Therefore, they can be crossed without problems, giving rise to a very large number of hybrids with a greater or lesser proportion of one or the other in their genetics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clima_cultivo_lugares_de_origen_y_apariencia_fisica\"><\/span><strong>Climate, cultivation, places of origin and physical appearance<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The appropriate question is: <strong>how can I physically differentiate one plant from another?<\/strong> If you want to do so, note that the indicas usually have a compact and robust appearance with dense, heavy and aromatic buds. In contrast, the sativas grow at a <strong>greater height<\/strong> and when the buds flower they tend to be larger but lighter and less dense when they have dried.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the flowering time between one plant and the other is different: while the <strong>indicas flower in about 45-60 days<\/strong>the <strong>sativas do so between 60 and 90<\/strong>. It all depends on the climate to which they are subjected&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, many of the differences between indicas and sativas can be explained by their places of origin and the climates to which they are accustomed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>INDICA<\/strong>: Pakistan, North of India, Tibet, Nepal, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SATIVA<\/strong>Thailand, South India, Jamaica and Mexico, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The effects they produce in the organism are perhaps one of the most significant differences between one variety and the other. It is often spoken of \"being stoned\" of indica or \"having the high\" of sativa. This is what we mean by a 'state of mind' at the moment after consumption.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the sake of clarity, the <strong>indicas contain more CBD and less THC than sativas<\/strong>They produce that sensation of \"high\" to which we have referred. Thus, this type of plants are perfect for relaxed activities that do not require extreme concentration, as they produce relaxation and alter the senses, particularly touch, hearing and taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand,<strong> the sativa type plant<\/strong>as we have indicated, produces a sensation of \"high\" understood as a more energetic, euphoric and creative effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conoce_mas_sobre_cannabis_en_Spannabis\"><\/span><strong>Learn more about cannabis at Spannabis&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In our article, we have only evidenced <strong>a small part of what the consumption entails<\/strong> of these plant typologies. However, the profound science of cannabis is immeasurable in comparison to our words, which, although they fit with the scientific evidence, can never do so (entirely) with the human evidence.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this reason, since <strong>Roots &amp; Raisers<\/strong> we recommend that, if you want to know, discover and talk extensively about the many properties that this plant has, go to fairs, events and talks where they can help you even more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of them is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.firacornella.com\/es\/evento\/spannabis-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spannabis<\/a>one of the largest cannabis fairs in the world, which will be held in Barcelona from March 11 to 13.
