Understanding Indica Strains Some Benefits of Their Consumption

Naturally, marijuana is available in three species, including Indica, Sativa & Ruderalis. Among the three of them, only Sativa & indica are useful because they are rich in Tetrahydrocannabinol & cannabidiol cannabinoids. Also, both of these species grow abundantly all over the world as a weed. Sativa grow in the areas where summers are usually longer. On the other hand, short seasons and cold climate is suitable for the adequate growth of Indica.
