Types of Cannabis Hybrids
Cannabis hybrids are the result of crosses between different strains, including other hybrids. Hybrids can be combined with a pure Sativa, pure Indica, or a mixture of both. The offspring often retain the genetics of its dominant parent(s). To be more specific, it achieves these results through certain THC and CBD ratios. Here are the three main types and their effects.
Since it is largely from a sedating strain, this type of strain gives a full-body pain relief and a relaxing physical high. It is perfect for daytime relief from minor pain, as well as nighttime use for sleep troubles. These strains may also help patients with autoimmune diseases as well as depression.
These hybrids are largely stimulating but partly act as sedatives. As such, these strains deliver effects that are more on the mental side. It is perfect for people who need relief from anxiety but still able to function during daytime.
Most hybrids come with either a more Sativa or Indica dominant side. But there are also some that come with 50/50 Sativa/Indica splits. This makes it perfect for people seeking the perfect mind and body balance.
Haze, Kush, Northern Lights, and Skunk are four of the most common and iconic hybrid strains. They basically serve as the building blocks of much of the cannabis hybrids we know today. In this section, we explore details such as their place of origin and lineage. Also included are their flowering time, unique effects, and popular variations.
The first on the list of cornerstone cannabis strains is the renowned Sativa strain called Haze. It came out in the 1970s and is sometimes called Original Haze or Neville's Haze.
Place of Origin: This strain was first created by the “Haze Brothers” in Northern California. But it almost went extinct at the beginning of the 80s, as growers looked for easier varieties to work with. In the end, Neville Schoenmakers got hold of the seeds, preserved the strain, and began crossing it.
Next in the list of common cannabis strains is Kush. To be clear, Kush refers to cannabis that grew in the Hindu Kush mountains. As such, Kush itself is not the name of one strain but refers to many strains originating from the same region.
Place of Origin: Kush plants trace its roots to the mountain range between Pakistan and Afghanistan. As was the case in the early 70s, Kush was named as such in relation to culture and origin.
This strain is one of the few that has reached legendary status. It is so common that it is impossible for regular users not to have tried it.
Place of Origin: Northern Lights originated in California.
Last on the list of the cornerstone strains is Skunk. This iconic strain is the result of the first crossing between a Sativa and an Indica strain.
Place of Origin: The original Skunk was first bred in the 1970s in California by Sacred Seed Co. David Watson, better known as Sam “the Skunkman.” He was the leader of the Cannabis growers.
