Strongest Indica Strains

Indica is a term introduced in the 18th century to refer to the variety of intoxicating cannabis strains initially found in India, producing seeds, fiber, and hashish. Sometimes they also receive the name “kush,” given after the Kush mountains that go all across India, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and Pakistan, which share the characteristic of providing pain-relieving and body-relaxing effects.

Besides describing the psychoactive effects this strain type can deliver, when you talk about indica or sativa, you’re also talking about the plant´s appearance. Indica plants are primarily short and stout, broad-leaf plants. Another good thing about indica plants is that they grow faster than sativa strains, having an average growth time of around 8 to 12 weeks.

One of the things that makes indica strains so potent is that they produce a lot of resin. So, with this kind of strain, you will surely get a sparkling trichome crystal coating in your cannabis flowers, which is abundant in full-body high and pain-relief potency. This also makes indica strains great for producing weed oil, kief, and other cannabis extracts. The high amount of fat-matter in the resin can make the extraction process more comfortable and abundant in the resulting product.

Strongest Indica Strains

Indica strains are well known for their medical uses in treatments with patients dealing with many different conditions such as nausea, insomnia, help treat acute pain, reducing anxiety, helping combat seizures, and treating lupus and multiple sclerosis.

Although most people associate indica strains with high couch-locking or highly sedative experiences, it is not always like that. Some balanced THC-CBD level indica strains can offer you a relaxing clear-headed high while still delivering that full-body, anti-anxiety, and symptom-relieving that are characteristic in these strain types.

Nonetheless, plenty of indica strains are high in THC level and can make the high experience stronger.
