What is the difference between Indica and Sativa?

The traditional belief that Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica have distinct effects (sativa being uplifting and indica being sedating) is not scientifically substantiated.

The actual difference between these strains is not clear-cut due to extensive interbreeding and hybridization, which makes it challenging to predict their effects based on appearance or classification alone. Both sativa and indica strains can contain a variety of terpenes, the aromatic compounds contributing to the plant's effects, and these terpenes are not exclusive to one type or the other. The effects of a cannabis strain are more accurately determined by its specific blend of cannabinoids and terpenes, rather than the broad categories of sativa or indica.
