2). Indica (commercially sold pot)
Shorter plant, spreads out and needs room, has easily identifiable large flowers/buds. More THC.
Grown in the north where damp and cold.


The fall is when government surveillance planes do their thing.
The commercial pot farms are easy to spot because of extra heat signature and the grow leaves have dropped leaving the curing buds behind.
I'm quite sure there is plenty of sophisticated photo-analytical software designed to identify plants from the air.
1) Wrong. Sativa is not “Mexican diet weed”. Sativa and Indica grow in different climates. That’s about it. Sativa can have just as much THC as Indica. The difference is how it affects you. Sativa is a body high. Can make you giddy, feel euphoric. Indica is a head high. It gives you what is called “couch lock”. Makes you tired and fall asleep. Those are the two major differences. The medical industry is finding out the two strains may also aliviate pain, nausea, swelling.... Depending on which strain is used.

As of today, there are really no more true Sativas or Indicas. They have been crossbred so much over the years, that almost all marijuana plants are hybrids.

Edit: Yea, I grow, so I do know what i am talking about.
