Oh, Indica! One of the two main subspecies of cannabis, it’s universally adored by growers all around the globe – and for good reason! Whether you’re an experienced grower or just a casual smoker, there are so many benefits behind the genetic profiles and chemical compositions of the best and strongest Indica strains.
What’s So Great About Indica Strains?
Before we introduce the list of our top ten strongest Indica varieties, let’s clear the air on what exactly makes Indicas so great.
- Due to their origin, Indicas don’t mind getting a little chilly, so a wider number of regions is suitable for their outdoor cultivation.
- If you prefer keeping your plants close by and growing them at home, this is always a breeze with Indica genetics. After all, a compact and bushy plant is easier to find room for, as well as to take care of afterward.
- Even the strongest of Indica plants remain short until the very last days of their cycle, yet they still manage to produce generous yields that are generally larger than those of Sativas.
- More often than not, pure Indica strains are thought of as less potent due to their lower THC content. Don’t be fooled – there are some incredibly heavy Indica hybrid strains out there!
- Indica strains are generally richer in CBD, one of the cannabinoids that give them their medicinal qualities, than Sativa weed strains. For the same reason, many see potent strains of Indica as nighttime strains, as they’ll get you happily stoned, locked to the couch, or just sleepy and hungry.
