Answers questions about indica, sativa, and hybrid strains, terpene profiles, potency, typical effects, and how to pick the right strains for your customers.
Is Indica better for sleep than Sativa or Hybrid?
Answer
For most shoppers, yes. If someone is asking specifically for “indica for sleep,” your team is on solid ground recommending Indica-dominant strains over Sativa or most Hybrids. The heavier body load, slower headspace, and tension relief line up well with nighttime and pre-bed routines.
That said, it is smart to avoid medical promises. Effects vary by person, tolerance, and setting. The safest framing is: Indica strains are what most customers choose when they want help unwinding, getting comfortable, and easing into rest, while racier Sativas are more likely to keep them alert.
How does Indica THCa feel compared to Sativa and Hybrid strains?
Answer
In the Indica vs Sativa vs Hybrid conversation, Indica is the heaviest side of the spectrum. Compared to Sativa, Indica THCa feels slower, more physical, and more sedating once activated. Customers notice less racing thought and more “weighted blanket” body feel.
Hybrid strains usually land in the middle. They blend some Indica body calm with some of Sativa’s mental lift, so they are easier to position as flexible, any-time options. When shoppers say “I want the strongest thing you have” or “I want to really wind down,” Indica is the lane your staff reaches for first.
What are Indica THCa flower effects for most customers?
Answer
Most customers describe Indica THCa flower as heavy, body-focused, and calming once it is heated and converted to THC. The feel is closer to “sink into the couch” than “clean the garage.” Muscles loosen, stress eases up, and the headspace slows down.
On your menu, Indica sits in the lane for end-of-day routines, movie nights, and “turn it all off for a bit” sessions. Effects still vary by person, but as a rule of thumb, your team can present Indica as the strongest option for full-body calm and deeper relaxation.
What potency range should I expect from Indoor THCa flower?
Most Indoor THCa flower lots are targeted to hit the mid-20s and above, with many strains landing in the upper 20s. It gives heavy-use customers plenty of punch without requiring Private Reserve pricing every time.
What potency range should I expect from Light Dep THCa flower?
Most Light Dep THCa lots are targeted to land in the mid to high 20s for THCa, with occasional batches hitting higher. It gives you plenty of punch for daily smokers while keeping a buffer below your strongest Private Reserve strains.
