What is Cannabis Sativa?

Cannabis sativa is the official name of the Sativa variety of the cannabis plant. It’s also the official name for hemp, which is simply Cannabis sativa bred to produce very small amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). The low THC content of hemp restrains its potential psychoactive effects, which allows farmers to legally grow hemp as an industrial crop.

The Cannabis sativa plant is native to Central Asia, where it was first used as a wellness remedy thousands of years ago. These native plants, called landrace strains, are still cultivated today. They’ve changed since they originated, as growers bred the plants to favor stronger traits and increase their yields. Thai, originated in Thailand, remains one of the most popular sativa landrace strains to this day.

Do Sativa and Indica come from the same plant?

Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa are the same plants, but their natural growing conditions caused adaptations that changed how they look. The native growing climates for Cannabis sativa favored plants that could grow tall and thin to obtain enough sunlight.

The native growing climate for most indica landscape strains is the arid, mountainous desert. Most of the original indica strains found their roots in the Hindu Kush mountain range, which spans the northern border of Afghanistan. Indica plants adapted to be smaller and bushier to protect themselves from UV rays, regulate their temperature effectively, and retain scarce rainwater.  tetrahydrocannabinol thc,
