A lot of people think that indicas are best. Particularly when in sales/marketing indicas are usually described with words like “euphoric,” and “relaxing,” while sativas are spoken of as though they’re the kind of thing you should only have if you have kids or need to smoke at work.

Common terms for sativas like “functional” and “clear headed” aren’t usually ones that jump out at a person looking to get lit af.

The truth is that sativas almost always have more THC and less CBD(unless specially bred for specific attributes,) meaning that they will get you the most “stoned.”

Both species have their winners and their losers, and imo, we’d be better off ditching that spectrum anyway, as there are so few true landrace strains left that are actually 100% one or the other.

It also varies so much by the individual. For example, my favorite herb for if I have to get shit done is a sativa like Durban Poison or Sour Diesel. Both of those strains would put my mother to sleep.
