Hybrid

What is a Hybrid? 

Hybrid strains combine sativa and indica. Professionals cultivate hybrid cannabis in greenhouses; it does not naturally grow in the wild. Growers carefully choose each parent strain to create a highly specialized plant.

Depending on their parent plants, hybrid plants differ in size, form, and other physical attributes. Sativa-dominant strains will have taller, thinner leaves, and Indica-dominant strains may have wider, shorter leaves. Certain hybrid plants have been specially bred to thrive in particular climates.

It’s important to understand that hybrid strains’ THC and CBD content can differ greatly from that of sativa and indica strains. While some hybrid strains are grown to have extremely high THC levels, others are purposely bred to have extremely high CBD levels. The impact of hybrid strains on the body and mind differs greatly.

Sativa and hybrid cannabis strains differ in that the former are typically a little less stimulating. It is because some of the more energetic effects of sativa are counterbalanced by indica. However, compared to an Indica strain, a hybrid strain may not induce as much sleep.

Hybrid strains can have very different effects on different items. Read the descriptions carefully when looking for these strains, and if you need help determining which one will be best for you, get advice from an expert. Finding items that meet your health needs and goals will be simpler if you know the difference between sativa, indica, and hybrid.
