Prom Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 15 years ago your "question" would be valid.. but science debunked the Indica is a downer and Sativa is a upper idea.. what you wanna feel, what effect you look for.. then you get some rather good suggestions  I copy/paste .. to hot to type hehehe Do Terpenes Determine Indica or Sativa Effects? If youâre reading this article, you likely know the difference between indica and sativa cannabis strains. This nugget of conventional wisdom has dominated the cannabis space for decades. Traditionally, indica-dominant strains describe stoning varieties, whereas sativa cultivars are described as energetic and cerebral. However, cannabis scientists have recently scrutinised this paradigm. The traditional model associates these attributes with genetic factors and divides indica and sativa strains into different subspecies of the plant. More recent discoveries instead link the effects of a strain to its specific cannabinoid and terpene profile. Although indica and sativa titles certainly correlate to the morphology of a strain, they donât necessarily determine the chemical profile within. THC plays the role of the active constituent within psychoactive cannabis strains. But, why do different strains produce different highs? Terpenes hold the answer. Through the entourage effect, terpenes determine whether a high will be physical and stoning or cerebral and stimulating. This new understanding of cannabis has led some researchers to even ditch the idea of strains altogether, as plants of the same cultivar can vary in terpene level as well. Instead, they suggest a new paradigm of âchemovars[3]â, where plants are categorised based on their unique phytochemical profiles and subsequent effects. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prom Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I was three years ago on green crack  not sure there is a auto. What you should easy find is a silver lemon haze, jack herer or any sour diesel in auto version. Their terpene profile should fit your search criteria, for sure more out there but those jump my mind right away.   1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkunkPharm Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Older auto strains was not very good. I would suggest looking at all the newer auto's on the market lile fast buds and ethos. I would.also suggest you buy newer stock that just came into the country. The longer seeds sit on the shelves the less likely they are to germinate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonjohnsons Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 You can try Jack Frost https://askgrowers.com/strains/jack-frost-strain-review. It is easy to grow and if you are a beginner it will not be so hard for you. Jack Frost Sativa can produce up to over 16 ounces of new bud for every single square meter planted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
