3 Relaxing Indica Hybrid Strains to Try Right Now
With the acceptance of cannabis more widespread than back in the day, consumers have a wealth of new information to help them decide which cannabis to buy. Instead of being at the mercy of whatever your source of cannabis had on hand, shoppers can browse large inventories of strains; indica, sativa and an ever-expanding range of hybrids.
Indica strains are an excellent choice for those seeking deep relaxation, physical pain relief and help with insomnia. Although not all indica strains are identical, naturally, and there are exceptions to the rule, these characteristics generally hold true when speaking of pure indica and many indica-dominant hybrids. Indica is also known to stimulate the appetite, making it a good choice for seniors, medical patients, and those who need more calories. Hybrids offer more balance and may offset the need for snacks!
Recreationally, indica strains are the perfect way to cap off your day. When you’re ready to hit the couch, unwind, forget about all the worries of the day, that’s when you can really enjoy what these cannabis strains have to offer. They are not good for wake-and-bake situations unless you have nothing to do for the rest of the day. They are typically quite sedative, especially in high doses. In smaller doses, you’ll feel carefree, relaxed and free from tension in the body.
Indica hybrids are a more balanced way to enjoy the relaxing benefits of indica and may be suitable for daytime use. With the addition of sativa genes, the effects are more varied. You may experience more cerebral effects, decreased appetite, flourishing creativity, etc… They are some of our favorite strains and we think you’ll like them too!
