Categories of Marijuana...

NOTE: Everybody’s body chemistry is different and you may experience strains differently.....this is just a  basic guide..i always thought all weed was the same...so not true

There are four main categories...Sativa-dominant strains, which you would describe as a cerebral, head-high.  Indica-dominant strains, which offer a pain-relieving, body-stone.  Hybrid strains, which are a cross-breed of Indica and Sativa strains. Lastly, you have high CBD strains.

Sativa-dominant strains are better for day-time smoking. They are usually very clear-minded and active strains that will keep you going throughout your day. Treating anxiety and depression is no-problem with Sativas; many patients feel incredibly uplifted and full of energy upon using them.

Indica-strains are recognized as the most medicinally-beneficial type of marijuana because of their pain relieving effects. These strains are great for night time and will keep you on the couch, creating a very pleasant sedating effect. They’re perfect for nausea, vomiting, any type of body pain, appetite induction, insomnia — you name it!

Hybrid (My Personal Favorite) strains are a cross breed of two different types of marijuana plants, usually Sativa and Indica. This results in a very full type of high, giving you all of the beneficial elements that marijuana has to offer. Hybrids are becoming incredibly popular in the medical marijuana field. Patients enjoy getting the best of both worlds without being put down on the couch from a heavy Indica. These strains will usually be identified with a percentage of sativa vs. indica. You’ll be given something like 60% indica / 40% sativa. This would simply mean that the hybrid is Indica-dominant, resulting in slightly more of a body high. Hybrids are perfect for any time of the day and almost any type of ailment! Be careful around bedtime as some high% Sativa hybrids give you energy and a creative mind.

CBD   cannabidiol  High content of CBD has desirable results for medical patients since it does not cause associated mental impairment, or side effects in addition to its ability to neutralize pain. great for people who do not want to experience the HIGH but still want the medicinal properties.
