C. indica

Cannabis indica is native to the Himalayas, India and Afghanistan. It’s traditionally cultivated for the production of hashish. Pharmacologically, C. indica tends to have a higher cannabidiol (CBD) content than C. sativa and is less psychoactive .. which means you get more of a “stoned” feeling from C. indica and less of a “high”. The C indica experience is often referred to as a “body buzz” and provides relief for pain and insomnia, as opposed to sativa’s more common reports of a “spacey” high. Common indica strains for recreational or medicinal use include Kush and Northern Lights. Photo courtesy of Coral Reefer [ link ]
