OMG – What does all this mean? Sativa / Indica / Terpenes

Back in the day weed was much simpler as I have previously mentioned.  You took what was around, and shared with who was around.  Life really was good.

  

Fast Forward 50 years later – LEFT: [I mean that literally 50 years is a total fast forward, you blink and Medicare is staring you in the face.] and all of a sudden we are hearing things like Sativa / Indica / Hybrid / badder / terpenes.  Terpenes – that’s a whole different language. It can be overwhelming, confusing, possibly even frustrating.  So I asked Google and this is what it answered:





Chemical Composition?  Wow is it really that serious?  I just want some weed!  It’s not *that* serious and honestly it’s not hard.  Knowing what all this means will help all of us in what we want vs. what we get.  


As a general rule based on reviews I’ve read:


Sativa:  Energizing 


Indica:  Sedating


Hybrid: the best of both and cultivated either Sativa leaning (higher percentage of Sativa to Indica), Indica leaning (higher percentage of Indica to Sativa)

For me, I am an Indica / Indica Leaning Girl.  Sativa’s and certain hybrids increase my anxiety, so I stay away.  There is plenty for me to choose from.  

Now what about “consumption methods”:  OMG – Now joints have filters, Well, That’s new LOL.  We had pipes, water pipes, bongs.  But with all the new types of offerings – vapes, budder, badder, sugar, sand, topicals, concentrates, extracts and so on, it’s a bit of overload.  Check out my resources, Everything you wanted to know all in one place.  If you have any questions please feel free to reach out.
