They contain the same cannabinoids and other terpenes, just in different ratios.

Gosh, I didn't expect a fight to break out. Thanks again everybody, for both the info and the entertainment.

interesting how you had to edit such a short statement. cat got your tongue? lol
thats neat how you pulled up a QUESTION from a post from 4 years ago, as if i havent learned a ton since then. the info on the truth wasnt exactly readily available back then
now i have worked directly with THC testers in the denver/boulder(mainly RM3 LABS) http://www.rm3.us/ area for some time and seen hundreds of oils come back and their full spectrum analysis from a gas chromatographer.
i have seen the breakdown of thc on a strain by strain basis FIRSTHAND. shut your mouth when grown folks is talking. there is no chemcial difference between indica and sativa.
you are the one with no knowledge or experience whatsoever so hush lil boy before daddy spanks you again.

seems to me you need to learn when to harvest and stop letting your stuff degrade into cbn and clouding your thoughts
you are the one that needs to read
LMFAO , maybe you should consult another source other than your silly hippie pot bibles, i have read a lot of those also, but you have to take the info in their with a grain of salt. those pot writers just make shit up left and right. seen it alot, especially the high times growers books.

"Indica and Sativa
There is an enormous amount of contradictory and confusing information about what “indica” and “sativa” types are and what medical properties correspond to these categories. The confusion is not just among the marijuana community; the scientific community can’t agree, either. Various researchers say cannabis is one, two, or three different species; some divide cannabis into two species, indica and sativa, but then put all drug types – including those we think of as ‘indica’ and ‘sativa’ – into the indica category.
What little agreement there is: some marijuana strains are tall and skinny, with narrow, light green leaves. These are generally assigned by the medical marijuana community to the “sativa” category, and appear to have been bred from the hemp brought to Europe centuries ago from Africa. Other marijuana strains are bushier, with wider, dark green leaves. These are assigned to the “indica” category and seem to have originated in India and the middle east. Indicas generally are grown indoors, have higher yields than sativas and are usually easier to grow.
Sativa drug strains appear to be a very highly bred subgroup of cannabis plants; they have been selected for generations for only the strongest versions of the THC gene, and the CBD gene has been virtually eliminated. They are the purebreds of the marijuana world; the strains have identifiable characteristics, and if you cross two plants of the same strain, the seeds will run relatively true to the parent.
Indica drug strains, by contrast, seem to have been less highly inbred; there is more genetic variation within and between strains, and the CBD gene is still present in many strains. Seeds are less likely to run true to the parents, and the results of crossbreeding are less certain (and more potentially interesting) than crosses between sativa strains. High levels of THCV are also more common among indica strains.
Finally, there are some strains reported in the literature with very high levels of THCV, CBDV or CBG, with correspondingly lower levels of THC and CBD; we have yet to encounter any of these varieties in our testing."

feel free to stay ignorant....its your problem not mine...and higher thcv in indicas is preposterous as well as indicas being less widely bred...it is the influx of indicas into the gene pool that changed the high to stoned...thcv is very indicative of psychedelic qualities in the cannabinoid ratio makeup and high thcv varieties for the most part are found in african genetics which are sativas not the sub class indica
What the fuck can someone testing cannabinoids in Colorado grown weed possibly know about landrace genetics and their evolution?
furthermore Rm3 does not even state that they test for thcv so again how the fuck does he know...and if you go and read the listed further readings they are in CONTRADICTION to what is in the context of the writings...they mistakenly bit and parsed the info to fit their thoughts,,,it is blatantly evident
And for your information Mel Frank is a botanist that applied botany to cannabis and is not a Jorge or Ed type author that knows nothing about plants but only how to write and market books...simply read his books and compare it to the fake hype authors and you would see and know this
But I stop here and will allow you to continue to show your ignorance as you seem to enjoy it and who am I to impede your happiness
I suggest your study this so that you may have a better understanding of your lack of knowledge

Whatever you say buddy, you are just regurgitating garbage, frank and the ENTIRE scientific community classify ALL CANNABIS AS CANNABIS SATIVA. "Indica" refers to "medicine", "Sativa" refers to "Fiber", the problem is you are letting semantics and nomenclature ruin the facts here. there is no scientific line bewteen indica and sativa, and thats not debatable, thats fact

It is a good question and it is funny where it went without an actual answer:
Indica and Sativa trichomes are different in their texture, size, most certainly thickness of the protecting membrane as well. THC and others cannabinoids vary from plant to plant in function of outside conditions of growth, altitude, geography, etc.. like the plant itself.

I didn't wanna say anything.....but I felt he knew...(I thought he was gone, didn't know died though, damn)
Course it could be a coincidence that he waited this long to reply in the "discussion"
I for one don't believe in coincidences....period
Anyway....dudes wrong....I'll stick up for kite
