Hybrids are often attributed characteristics from both sativa and indica strains. It is widely accepted that most strains available today are in fact a hybrid of the original sativa and indica designations. The different combinations of cannabinoids and terpenes identified by the plant’s ingredient profile are the best indicators of a particular strain’s effects.

TERPENES
Ever wonder what makes cannabis so fragrant? You can thank naturally occurring chemical compounds called terpenes.
While terpenes are present in most plants, cannabis plants produce a wide variety of them in high concentrations. From skunky to sweet, these aromas interact with cannabinoids to enhance the experience of consuming cannabis.
Think of terpenes as the aromatherapy components of the plant that are largely responsible for whether the strain will have a calming or energizing effect.
