Just searching through cannabis strains and trying to find an indica strain can be hard. But finding a pure indica or indica-dominant strain that’s actually really great is even harder. But don ...
Cannabis indica is an annual plant species in the family Cannabaceae [1] indigenous to the Hindu Kush mountains of Southern Asia. [2] The plant produces large amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) [3] and tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), with total cannabinoid levels being as high as 53.7%. [4]
One laboratory at the University of British Columbia found that Jamaican Lamb's Bread, claimed to be 100% sativa, was in fact almost 100% indica (the opposite strain). [90] Legalization of cannabis in Canada (as of 17 October 2018 [update] ) may help spur private-sector research, especially in terms of diversification of strains.
Hemp seeds are notable in providing 64% of the Daily Value (DV) of protein per 100-gram serving. [20] The three main proteins in hemp seeds are edestin (83% of total protein content), albumin (13%) and ß-conglycinin (up to 5%). [25] [23] Hemp seed proteins are highly digestible compared to soy proteins when untreated (unheated).
THC is just one of more than 100 identified cannabinoid compounds in Cannabis, which also include cannabinol (CBN) and cannabidiol (CBD). Cannabis plants vary widely, with different strains producing dynamic balances of cannabinoids (THC, CBD, etc.) and yielding markedly different effects. Popular strains are often hybrids of C. sativa and C ...
Feral cannabis is an exceptionally hardy weed, widely dispersing its seeds which can lie dormant for 7–10 years before sprouting again. [4] In Minnesota, hemp is classified among the 11 "noxious prohibited weeds" along with several species of thistle, and noted for damaging farmers' plowing equipment.
Strains used in medicine are often bred for high CBD content, and strains used for recreational purposes are usually bred for high THC content or for a specific chemical balance. Quantitative analysis of a plant's cannabinoid profile is often determined by gas chromatography (GC), or more reliably by gas chromatography combined with mass ...
The cannabis supplied by NIDA has been criticized by researchers for a variety of reasons, including high amounts of stems and seeds, [78] high mold and yeast levels, [79] low THC content, [27] and low diversity of strains available. [78]
