Sativa vs Indica: Which Strain Is Right for Me?


Although medical marijuana is technically legal in Georgia, we are hopeful that the state loosens restrictions on usage soon. The state has a low THC oil registry, but it is very restrictive and is not seen as a medical marijuana program.


You should make sure you are as prepared as possible when Georgia’s medical marijuana finally launches. One thing many people ask us is “how do I know which strain is right for me?”


Although this sounds like a simple question, the answer is actually pretty complicated. It isn’t a straight forward “this or that” answer, but rather it depends on many factors that will be unique to you.


In this blog, we will talk about which strain is best for which people and purposes.


Indica Dominant

There are a few different types of strains including:

  • Indica dominant

  • Sativa dominant

  • Hybrid

A hybrid is a 50/50 mix of the two strains. Indica strains tend to be relaxing and sometimes sedating. Your strain of choice will depend on what you are using it for. If you want to relax and unwind, indica is best for you.


Indica strains are also great for those with sleeping problems including narcolepsy, insomnia, and more. Indica strains can help you get to bed on time and have better quality sleep.


Sativa Dominant

Sativa strains are the opposite of indica. They tend to be energizing for most people and can be great for physical activities like walking, hiking, and more.


Sativa strains are also really great for focus, so if you need a little extra pep in your step while completing a task or cleaning the house, sativa may be a good option for you.


The Bottom Line

The strain that is best for you really depends on you! Your qualifying condition and what you hope the medicine will do for you is key. If you want to get back to a more active, pain-free lifestyle, sativa is the one.


If you are having trouble sleeping, indica may be your cure.. If you are not well-rested, it can cause many issues for you throughout the day. It is so important to get adequate sleep so you are ready for whatever the day has in store for you!


If you aren’t sure, you can also ask the dispensary employees for a recommendation. You can tell them your qualifying condition and what you want your medicine to accomplish, and they should be able to give you product recommendations!
