Indica varieties are concentrated in a smaller geographical area than Sativa strains that are present in virtually every part of the world.<\/p>\n Indica genetics spread to a relatively small extent, with most of them remaining in and around Himalayan mountains<\/b>. Like Sativa varieties, Indica strains continued their journey from Central Asia to the Middle East, and then moved through North Africa, but no further than Morocco, and in Europe what we now know as Turkey.<\/p>\n It is possible that until that moment the classification between sativa and indica varieties had not been made, plants from Morocco, Egypt or Lebanon were rather hybrids<\/b>, as well as those from northern India. However, those that continued through Pakistan, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan and all this area evolved until they achieved the qualities that we now classify as indica.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span>\ud83d\udd25 Characteristics of Indica strains<\/span><\/h2>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n These were polishing their features due to the climatic and environmental conditions they had in their new environment. In high mountain areas, the short summer caused the flowering to be shortened gradually until in many cases it was in a much faster cycle than sativa strains. This is the reason why Indica varieties develop less and are smaller in size.<\/i><\/p>\n The lower luminic incidence made Indica plants create a larger surface of leaves<\/b>, which in addition the not very fertile soil forced them to be thicker<\/b> in order to accumulate more nutrients. The constant strong winds of the high mountain areas also caused the stems to become more and more strong, as well as the more compact and dense structure.<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span>\ud83c\udfaf Characteristics of Sativa strains<\/span><\/h2>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n However, sativa plants from the equatorial regions have completely different climatic and environmental conditions. The constant photoperiod, the heat, the very high humidity, the fertile soil and other factors<\/i> forced these genetics to adapt differently.<\/p>\n The good climate for cultivation that they have in most equatorial, tropical and subtropical areas allowed sativa varieties to extend their cycle several months longer than those of indica plants<\/i>. The high incidence of sunlight and permanent high humidity caused the leaflets of the leaves to become thinner and the structure of the plant to lengthen.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n The chemotype was also mutated, probably by spectrum and light intensity<\/i>, although this can be understood in different ways. Terpenes profile, like other plants in the plant kingdom, have been acquired according to the needs of their environment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n | | | | | | | | | | | |
