Cannabis comes in two primary variants: Indica and Sativa, each offering unique effects and used for different purposes.
THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is responsible for the psychoactive effects of cannabis, while CBD (cannabidiol) offers therapeutic benefits without inducing a high.
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in cannabis that contribute to its scent and flavor, and influence the effects of different strains.
Important considerations for selecting quality cannabis include source and cultivation, laboratory testing, appearance, and aroma.
