Las Vegas Cannabis Hybrids

Everything you need to know

Happy, Calm Marijuana Strain

With a hybrid strain, you get the best of both worlds: the happiness and energy of sativa, and the gentle relaxation of indica. Recent studies have shown that the differences between sativa and indica aren’t as clear-cut as once believed. But still, hybrid strains can offer a pleasant balance of effects that makes you feel happy and cheerful but not hyperactive, or calm and relaxed but not overly drowsy. Due to decades of crossbreeding, the majority of strains on the market are hybrids, and finding a “pure” strain is rare. Here’s what you need to know about hybrid cannabis strains in Las Vegas.

What Is It?

Hybrid cannabis strains are a cross between an indica and a sativa strain. The mixture usually isn’t 50-50: you might find a strain that’s 80% indica and 20% sativa, or 60% indica and 40% sativa. In popular culture, indica strains are believed to be sedating, while sativa strains give you pep and energy.

However, recent studies have shown that the differences aren’t as clear as we once believed. While sativa and indica strains can look different in appearance, one strain isn’t necessarily more energizing or relaxing than the other. Some sativa strains can be relaxing, and vice versa. When choosing a strain, it’s important to do your research and evaluate the amount of THC and CBD present in the strain so you know exactly what you’re getting. If you still aren’t sure, our budtenders at Las Vegas ReLeaf are happy to help you find what you’re looking for.

The vast majority of strains on the market are hybrids. In fact, “pure” strains are hard to find, since most strains have undergone years of crossbreeding. Many hybrid strains were bred by growers who wanted to enjoy the positive effects of their favorite strains and breed out the negative side effects. As a result, hybrid strains can offer a varied, eccentric high that you won’t get from a pure strain alone. They typically offer a balance so you don’t find yourself getting too energized or too drowsy.

How Does It Make You Feel?

The effects you get from your hybrid can depend on a wide range of factors, including the parent strains, the amounts of THC and CBD present in the strain, and whether the strain is more indica-dominant or sativa-dominant. However, the “indica” or “sativa” label should be taken loosely and not treated like an absolute guarantee, as we stated earlier.

In general, sativa plants are known for their energizing effects. A sativa-dominant hybrid might make you feel cheerful, energetic, happy and ready to take on whatever the day throws at you. It might also make you feel more creative and inspired, and help you finish that art project you’ve been working on. Some strains put you in a cheery mood, while others offer an intense boost of euphoria that can shoot you to the moon. Sativa typically has higher levels of THC than CBD and is used to treat anxiety and depression.

Conversely, indica plants are typically seen as calming, relaxing strains. An indica-dominant strain might make you feel calm and relaxed at the end of the long day. You might feel that your stresses and worries seem to melt away, and you enjoy a full-body sedation that sinks into your muscles. Some indica strains are also prized for their medicinal properties. An indica-heavy strain might relieve nausea, ease pain and inflammation, relieve anxiety and eliminate insomnia. This breed usually has higher levels of CBD than THC.

The effects of hybrids can vary, but they often combine the “best of both worlds.” You might feel happy and energetic, but also get a dose of relaxation so you’re not bouncing off the walls. Or you might feel calm and relaxed, but get a small dose of energy to keep you awake. Despite this, some hybrids still have intense effects that can knock you off your feet if you’re not careful. Some strains make you mind blowingly happy, while others make you so drowsy that you can barely get off the couch.
