Indica is a short plant, usually under 6ft tall, rarely over 8ft tall. Its marijuana leaves have short, wide fingers and are deep green, often tinged with purple.At maturity, the marijuana leaves start to turn even darker purple. It has short branches laden with thick, dense marijuana buds, which mature early, usually about the beginning of September.
The marijuana buds vary in colour from dark green to purple, just like their marijuana leaves. Under cooler conditions, the coloration becomesmore intense. The marijuana buds have little trouble maturing under the cool conditions of our northern climate. Indica marijuana buds smell stinky, you know the type that smell like bad B.O often pungent and their smoke is thick even a small toke will often induce fits of coughing. The best Indicas have a relaxing social high, which allows the person to sense and feel the environment, but does not lead to thinking or analyzing the experience.
The Indica High :
The indica highs are most often described as a pleasant body buzz. Indicas are great for relaxation, stress relief, and for an overall sense of calm and serenity. marijuana indicas are also very effective for overall body pain relief, and often used in the treatment of insomnia. They are the late - evening choice of many smokers as an all - night sleep aid. A few pure indica strains are very potent in THC, and will cause the "couchlock" effect, enabling the smoker to simply sit still and enjoy the experience of the smoke.

Strain Name: Brazilian Amazonian
From: Patient’s Choice of Colorado
Grade: A
Type: Indica
Looks: This is a deceivingly dense little bud. It is coated with long thin trichomes, and has dark red hair coming out everywhere.
Smell: Initially this bud smelled slightly of incense or perfume, but upon grinding that changed to more of a sweet scent, along the lines of strawberry licorice.
Taste: Contrary to the scent, this bud tastes much like a cold lemonade: the kind that the flavor is so sweet and sour that it kind of sticks around in your mouth. I am also getting a slight undertone of a kind of earthy plant flavor.
Effects: Instant pain relief. I do feel a bit hazy in my head, but my thoughts seem to cut through the cloud, and movements seem un-slowed. That all being said, it has a very nice body buzz that, when combined with the cloudy headed feeling, makes for an incredibly comfortable overall buzz. Just sitting back and feeling the buzz, is like sitting next to a nice warm fireplace on a cold night.
Potency: The comedown started at hour two and lasted until about hour five, so I’d give this one an 8 out of 10 on potency.

Strain Name: Super Lemon Skunk
From: Patient’s Choice of Colorado
Grade: A
Type: Indica
Looks: This bud is so covered in trichomes that the leaves are barely visible. It looks like it was in the freezer and accumulated a considerable amount of frost over everything. The pistols are a bit stubby and seem to be stuck inside clumps of trichomes, in some instances.
Smell: Very sweet and lemony, as you would expect from the name. The scent is very similar to something like a Golden Goat or Jack Flash, where it has that lemony smell, but it lacks the soapy tones that those strains have.
Taste: Sweet. Lemon. This bud tastes like a lemon drop, when I inhale via my vaporizer. It has almost no sour undertones, which was kind of unexpected for a lemony bud. There is almost no overly heavy feeling in your lungs like a Golden Goat can get at times, this is more light and airy feeling.
Effects: This is a great bud to just zone out with some music on. Worked wonderfully on my stomach pains, although it could do a bit better on the nausea. Also, it definitely helps me wind down to sleep. Thoughts are pretty disjointed, and I seem to be easily distracted, so it definitely provides that cloudy kind of dreamy feeling.
Potency: This one lasted 4-6 hours, so it was pretty potent. I’d have to give this one a 9 out of 10 for potency.
Strain Name: Super Skunk
Grade: A
Type: Indica
Looks: Light green with brown hairs and lots of trichs
Smell: Not Skunky at all, Kind of a sweet citrus
Taste: Sweet
Effects: Mellow, relaxing stone….I like to harvest later for the couch lock effect.
Potency: B, not a total knock-out

Good Strain For: Medical IBS, Insomnia, Headaches, Cramps, Appetite Stimulation
Strain Name: Master Kush
Grade: A
Type: Indica
Looks: Orange hair explosion! Buds are completely covered in an explosion of bright orange hairs. What little green that can be seen is a medium green color and covered in crystals. (9/10)
Smell: Very strong fresh orange citrus mixed with a hint of piney kush smell. (10/10)
Taste: Similar to the smell. Very orange citrus earthy flavor with hints of kush, pine, and spice. (9/10)
Effects: Night time use. Hard hitting behind the eyes. Dropped my eyes low like droopy the dog. Also dried my eyes out pretty good too. Total mellow calm feeling, in planning stages to get a bunch of stuff done. Clear head and still fairly zoot. (8/10)
Potency: Strong (8/10)
Strain Name: Burmese Kush
Grade: A-
Type: Hybrid – Indica Dominant
Looks: Dark green fairly dense buds that have an explosion of tropical orange hairs. What green can been seen is covered in sparkling crystals. (9/10)
Smell: It smells like kush (unburnt fuel) and fresh berry fruit with a strong after tone of black licorice. The smell is not defined until the buds are broken apart. (9/10)
Taste: Taste like the kush smell mixed with pine trees, fresh earth and a dash of wood. It is kind of a faint taste, not as overpowering as I’m used to from kush strains. (8/10)
Effects: Night time use. Happy… Hungry… Sleepy… Excellent medical strain for pain relief, depression, anti-anxiety, appetite stimulation, focusing, and insomnia. Should be used on a full stomach only to prevent killer munchies. Speaking of which, I have to get my cheese eggs. (9/10)
Potency: Very Strong (9/10)
Strain Name: Grand Daddy Purple
Grade: B+
Type: Indica
Looks: The bud is magnificent in its color it is very deep purple almost all the way except for the occasional neon green spot. If you have had GDP before you’ll recognize these colors. There is almost zero hairs on this strain but the crystal formation is awesome on that purple.
Smell: Like most purple strains the smell is nothing really amazing. It is very hard to describe the smell and quite honestly the best way to put it is if purple had a smell it would smell like GDP. There is a faint sour smell as well but its really hard to distinguish it from the purple.
Taste: The taste is very smooth and somewhat spicy in a way. The taste is very short lived and has virtually zero aftertaste. It doesn’t have a sweet taste that sticks with you like other popular purps like Grape Ape or Purple Urkle.
Effects: The high is very calm and light but not so light that it doesn’t help with anything. This indica is a perfect medicinal pain reliever instead of feeling just numb like other heavy indicas it simply just makes things stop hurting and its perfect for headaches. This strain is perfect for anytime of day because while it does make you extremely relaxed it leaves you very clear headed.
Potency: 1-2.5 hrs
