The Different Types of Cannabis
There are many different types of cannabis, and each type can look different. The three main types of cannabis are indica, sativa, and hybrid. Indica plants are short and bushy,sativa plants are tall and thin, and hybrids are a mix of the two.
Indica
Indica plants are shorter and bushier than sativas. The leaves are also broader and darker green. They have a shorter flowering cycle than sativas, which makes them easier to grow indoors. Indicas produce more resin, which is why they’re used for making hash and other concentrates.
Sativa
Sativa is a type of cannabis that is characterized by long, thin leaves and a more uplifting high. It is believed to originate from regions near the equator, and it is often associated with warm climates. Sativa plants tend to grow taller than indica plants and have a more open structure. The buds of sativa plants are also typically less dense than indica buds.
While the effects of sativa are generally considered to be more cerebral and uplifting, everyone experiences cannabis differently. The best way to find out which type of cannabis works best for you is to experiment with different strains and see what works best for you.
Hybrid
Hybrid cannabis is a mix of indica and sativa strains, providing the best of both worlds for many users. Hybrids tend to produce well-balanced effects that are neither too relaxing nor too stimulating, making them ideal for many situations. Hybrid strains are also often very high in THC, making them a good choice for experienced users who are looking for strong effects.
The Different Colors of Cannabis
Cannabis can come in a variety of colors, with the most common being green, brown, and black. However, there are also strains of cannabis that can be found in colors like white, pink, and purple. The different colors of cannabis can be determined by the strain, the growing conditions, and even the maturity of the plant.
Green
Green is the most common color of cannabis. It is caused by the presence of chlorophyll, which is what gives plants their green color. Chlorophyll is necessary for photosynthesis, which is how plants make their food. It also helps to protect the plant from predators.
Brown
Brown cannabis is often seen as lower quality than brighter weed, but this isn’t always the case. Brown cannabis can range from being very dry and crumbly to being oily and sticky. The color is usually the result of either poor handling or over-curing of the buds.
Black
Most people know that there are different types of cannabis, but did you know that there are also different colors? Cannabis can come in a variety of colors, from the traditional green to more unusual colors like black.
So, what does cannabis look like in New York? Let’s take a closer look at the different colors of cannabis:
Green: Green is the most common color of cannabis. It can range from light green to dark green, and the shade can vary depending on the strain.
Blue: Blue cannabis is relatively rare. It gets its color from anthocyanins, which are pigments that also give blueberries their color. Blue cannabis is often Indica-dominant.
Purple: Purple cannabis is also relatively rare. Like blue cannabis, it gets its color from anthocyanins. Purple cannabis is often Sativa-dominant.
Red: Red cannabis is relatively rare. It gets its color from carotenoids, which are pigments that also give carrots their color. Red cannabis is often Indica-dominant.
Black: Black cannabis is the rarest type of cannabis. It gets its color from Melanin, which is a pigment that also gives human skin its color. Black cannabis is often Sativa-dominant.
The Different Shapes of Cannabis
Cannabis legalization in New York is slowly gaining traction with more people becoming interested in the plant. While some people are drawn to its recreational uses, others are more interested in its medical applications. Cannabis can come in many different shapes and sizes, each with its own unique set of properties.
Buds
Buds are the tightly packed, flowering tops of female cannabis plants. They’re the part of the plant that contains the most THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids. Buds are what people typically think of when they think of cannabis.
Cannabis buds come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. They can be long and thin, or short and fat. They can be sticky or dry. And they can be green, purple, red, or any other color that a cannabis plant can be.
The appearance of a cannabis bud can tell you a lot about itsquality.For example, if a bud is dense and tightly packed, that usually means it’s high in THC. If it’s covered in trichomes (the tiny, shiny crystals that look like glitter), that usually means it’s high in THC as well. If it’s dry and crumbly, that usually means it wasn’t grown or stored properly and won’t be very potent.
When you buy cannabis buds in a dispensary, they’re typically sold by the gram (g) or eighth (⅛). An eighth is an eighth of an ounce—most people consider an ounce to be 28 grams—so an eighth would be 3.5 grams.
Leaves
Cannabis leaves can vary tremendously in shape and size. They can be long and slender, or short and broad. Some leaves are brightly coloured, while others are more subdued.
The shape of a cannabis leaf is determined by its genetics (its “strain”). Different strains of cannabis have different leaf shapes. For example, “sativa” strains tend to have long, slender leaves, while “indica” strains tend to have short, broad leaves.
The size of a cannabis leaf is determined by its environment (its “growing conditions”). If a plant has plenty of space to grow, it will produce large leaves. If a plant is crowded or stressed, it will produce small leaves.
Cannabis leaves are usually green, but they can also be red, purple, or even pink. The colour of a leaf is determined by its genetics (its “strain”). Different strains of cannabis have different leaf colours. For example, some “sativa” strains tend to have green leaves, while some “indica” strains tend to have purple leaves.
Cannabis leaves are covered in tiny hairs called “trichomes”. Trichomes produce the majority of the plant’s cannabinoids (such as THC and CBD). The density of trichomes on a leaf is determined by its environment (its “growing conditions”). If a plant is stressed or unhealthy, it will produce fewer trichomes.
Stems
The stem is the main support structure of the cannabis plant. It can be either green or woody in appearance and is typically covered in leaves, buds, and flowers. The stem is an important part of the plant because it helps to transport water and nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant.
Stems can vary in thickness depending on the variety of cannabis plant. They can be either round or square in shape and can be hollow or solid. The size of the stem also varies depending on the size of the plant. Smaller plants will have thinner stems while larger plants will have thicker stems.
The stem is not typically consumed by itself but it can be used to make teas or other Infusions. It can also be used to make hashish or other extracts.
The Different Smells of Cannabis
Cannabis in New York can have a variety of different smells depending on the strain. Some common smells are citrus, diesel, and skunk. Cannabis can also have a earthy smell, or a sweet smell. The smell of cannabis can also depend on how it was grown. If it was grown outdoors, it may have a different smell than if it was grown indoors.
Earthy
Cannabis can have a multitude of different smells, depending on the strain. The most common smell is earthy, which is often described as a mix of pine and lemon. This is due to the presence of terpenes, which are chemicals that give plants their smell. Other common smells include: sweet, fruity, skunky, and spicy.
Skunky
The smell of cannabis is often described as earthy, skunky, or musty. This is because cannabis contains compounds called terpenes. Terpenes are chemicals that are produced by a variety of plants, including cannabis. They are responsible for the smell and taste of many fruits, vegetables, and herbs.
Cannabis plants contain more than 100 different kinds of terpenes. This gives each type of cannabis its own unique smell and taste. The most common terpene in cannabis is myrcene. Myrcene is responsible for the musky, skunky smell of many types of cannabis.
Some other common terpenes in cannabis include:
-Pinene: This terpene gives cannabis its pine-like smell.
-Limonene: This terpene gives cannabis its citrusy smell.
-Linalool: This terpene gives cannabis its floral smell.
Sweet
Sweet-smelling cannabis is often CDB-dominant, and is said to smell like honey, tropical fruits, or candy. It can also have undertones of spice or diesel.
