Complete Cannabis Seed Strain Strain Guide

There are countless cannabis seed varieties. There are so numerous cannabis varieties that no one can establish an exact number, as more are being developed. This is because the varieties are crossed with one another. Meanwhile you get every dubious cannabis seed variety offered, but they are all based on the same plant, the Cannabis Sativa. Cannabis varieties can vary in effect, price, cultivation, appearance and other elements. Some of the best known cannabis seed strains are definitely Crystal, Chronic, Big Bud, Ice, White Widow, Northern Light and Super Skunk. But there are numerous other cannabis seed varieties than only these.

Cannabis varieties can be split into four main categories/species. These are:

• Indica
• Sativa
• Cannabis Ruderalis

Indica

Indica cannabis strains are mostly small and dense. Well suited for the so-called "Homegrow", where you cultivate hemp at home in a growbox. Despite the fact that the plant becomes relatively small (about 1m), Indicas produce relatively many flowers. There are Indica Cannabis varieties that produce up to 600g per m² (about 4-5 plants). Indicas nearly all come from Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Tibet, Nepal, etc. so mainly from South Asia. The effect is more physical and makes you stoned, creating deep relaxation.

Cannabis Sativa

Sativa comes from the equatorial regions. This variety continues growing during blooming, so Sativas have a tendency to grow very large. In the wild, these can grow up to many meters high. The leaves are wide with many small leaflets.

Cannabis Ruderalis

The name comes from "ruderal", a term for an uncontrolled growing plant. Ruderalis is native to Russia, Central Europe and Central Asia. They are very small, between 30-80 cm tall. The plant has very few branches, but wide, bushy and light green fingers. As it has very low THC content, it is seldom smoked but its genetics makes it very appealing for crossing.
