New medical marijuana patients needs not worry as there can be a perplexing and even overwhelming choice of marijuana strains available from the pharmacies. Countless pharmacies have knowledgeable, qualified care professionals who can advise the patient on what strain of cannabis generally offers the best relief from the patient's particular condition. To have things in a simple light, we offer the following.

There are 2 primary strains of medical marijuana: indica and sativa. And in each of these strains, there are several varieties of cannabis. Hybrid strains are those that include the mix of indica and sativa. As a medical marijuana patient, it's important for him/her to know the difference between the two.

Indica strains are useful as a relaxant, thus they are effective for pain, anxiety, nausea, appetite stimulations, sleep, muscle spasms and tremors, as per testimonials from patients. In simpler terms, the indica high is more physical in nature. Taking this is a wonderful idea if you want to induce sleep or to relieve pain.

The hash producing countries like Afghanistan, Morocco and Tibet are said to be where indicas have originated. With buds that are thick and dense, flavors and aromas also vary: pungent to fruity. Indica has higher CBD as well as lower THC counts than sativa which produce a heavier, sleepier type of effect.

OUR CHOICE: OG KUSH

We strongly suggest OG Kush as your primary option if you, as a medical marijuana patient, want to grow your own Indica.

Now, there are many different plants that are called OG Kush. The true OG Kush, the one that originatedfrom Southern Californa, is indica dominant, even if several OG Kush plants are characteristically sativa dominant. It is a really easy to grow plant, specifically from clones and can be harvested within a period of 3 months. In addition, this action will give you a better yield. As one connoisseur described it, "True OG Kush is one of the 'ultimate' kush strains found in sunny Southern California. Very few other strains seem to compare to True OG's unique scent, taste, and mental & physical effects."

Do not be surprised if a heavy "snow" of crystals cover the buds and adjacent leaves of an OG Kush, this strain is known for that. Moreover, know that the smell of the buds is pungent and the buds themselves are extremely "breakable."

FOR YOUR ADDITIONAL RESEARCH

Blue Moonshine, Blueberry Kush, Hawaiian Indica, Bubble Funk, Mango, Master Kush, Maple Leave Indica, Sensi Star, Snow White as well as Rooty Tooty are just some of the other recognized brand names of indica strains.

It's a good move though to sample as many "brand names" as possible if you believe that Indica gives you the most relief. Most pharmacies sell small amounts (1 gram) for between $10 and $25 so you can get acquainted with which marijuana works best for you, without going broke. Once you settle on a favorite or two (it is advisable to alternate marijuana "brands" so that your body doesn't develop any tolerance to either one), decide if you want to keep on buying from the pharmacy, or want to graduate to growing your own. If you want to grow your own, check if the pharmacy has any clones of the marijuana strains you deem best for your medical needs.
