Cannabis is a leafy plant which grows wild in many of the tropic and temperate areas of the world. It is cultivated both indoors and out for the production of its flowering tops. The most commonly used form of cannabis are the leaves and flowering tops (buds) which may be either smoked or eaten; It also comes in a more concentrated resinous form called hashish, and as a sticky black liquid called hash oil. There are three distinct species of cannabis: Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis, though there is some argument as to whether these should be considered varieties rather than species. Most recreationally used cannabis is the result of interbreeding between these three types. The term 'hemp' is generally used to describe low-thc varieties of cannabis which are grown for industrial uses. Urban Dictionary

" ... highs from "sativa" strains tend to produce clearer, cerebral "head" highs, whereas highs from "indica" strains produce more lethargic "body" highs, with emphasis on drowsiness, and increase appetite ("munchies"). To date, no undisputable chemical or pharmacological basis for these differing effects has been discovered. Anecdotal evidence suggest that variations in the amount of cannabidiol (CBD) may be a factor." Urban Dictionary

Cannabis is the genus of plant that divides into three species: Sativa, Indica, and Ruderalis. Sativa is the only specie that produces THC which gives you the head high. Indica produces other cannabinoids which give you the tired and stoned feeling. And Ruderalis is an unstable variety of Cannabis that no one smokes because its gay and doesnt produce any get high chemicals. --All the weed you smoke has Sativa in it. A lot of the times there a Sativa/Indica hybrid, but if you wanna get really high, pure Sativa's the way to go. --All medical cannabis doctors refer to it as cannabis, never marijuana, because that word came from a mexican descent describing it as dope. --The song "La Cucaracha" which very few people know the words to after the title, was actually made back when America made cannabis illegal. They made that law because mexican americans were coming to the US and smoking it, and there was a prejudice towards them from many white authorities. The song plainly states "the poor cockaroach cannot travel without his marijuana."
