Reference Cannabis Seed Strain Type Index

There are countless cannabis seed varieties. There are so numerous cannabis varieties that no one can establish an exact count, as more are being bred. This is because the varieties are crossed with each other. Meanwhile you get every dubious cannabis seed variety available, but they are all based on the same plant, the Cannabis Sativa. Cannabis varieties can vary in impact, price, cultivation, appearance and other factors. 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 many more cannabis seed varieties than only these.

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

• Indica
• Cannabis Sativa
• Ruderalis

Indica Cannabis

Indica cannabis strains are mostly small and compact. Well suited for the so-called "Homegrow", where you cultivate hemp at home in your growbox. Despite the fact that the plant becomes relatively small (about 1m), Indicas yield relatively many buds. There are Indica Cannabis varieties that yield 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 deeply relaxed, creating deep relaxation.

Cannabis Sativa

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

Cannabis Ruderalis

The name comes from "ruderal", a term for a wild growing plant. Ruderalis is indigenous to Russia, Central Europe and Central Asia. They are very tiny, between 30-80 cm tall. The plant has few branches, but broad, bushy and light green fingers. As it has minimal THC content, it is rarely smoked but its genetics makes it very interesting for crossing.
