Most of everything I read on reviews of strains is based on "smoking". My wife has cancer and I am looking for indica type stuff to help her sleep. Is this applicable for edibles? I want her to eat a brownie and want to sleep a couple hours after it gets her high. Is this a realistic expectation? She will not smoke but nausea and sleep aid are the biggest needs, along with therapuetic mental benefits for dealing with it.

Sorry to hear about your wife Scott....I hope she can beat this.
To answer your questions..yes on both counts. Are you going to make edibles or get them from a dispensary?? Plenty of recipes in the cooking with cannabis sub forum here. Make sure you try them out before giving them to your wife. If your wife has a low tolerance, you may have a unique experience trying to figure out the dosage, because she'll need more than an identicaly sized person with the same tolerance just to overcome the things that are going on with her.
As a rule, the effect of edibles lasts much longer than inhaling, so it should work well for her, once you dial it in. Personally, I sleep well after a cookie before bed.
Good luck

rem. when you eat. it may take up to an hour for it to kick in. keep this in account. so may be best to eat at least half hour before plan bed time. and when she lays down shes tired, any effect smoke report should be the same effect when you eat it.

for got to say. im not the smoking expert. but one that really made me relax and sleep was a northern lights. with in a half hour I passed out. got a full nights sleep. if you have the means. you can buy beens from a breeder , they have beans tailored for your purpose, one is called finest medical mj seeds. if your have the option to grow. but for now your best to buy. shes needs it asap.

I make cookies. Toll house recipe with 2 grams premium trim per dose.
I flattened them out on a cookie sheet for 12 bars.
Problem was I took one and described it as a narcotic body high like mild hydros.
Next one I took I was laying on the couch in fetal position for four hours thinking the neighbors where listening to me.
AAAAAAAAAAAhahahahahhahaahhahah!
fucking cookies.

the second one kept me high for well over 24 hours.
I dont know why.
Maybe I need to mix more and make smaller batches.
