The Sativa vs Indica Debate, Explained

For decades, the cannabis world has split the cannabis plant into two categories: cannabis sativa and cannabis indica.

Sativa strains traditionally bring uplifting effects — creativity, energy, sociability. Indica strains lean into relaxing effects like deep relaxation and couch-lock.

But today’s cannabis industry doesn’t play by those old rules.

Most cannabis strains on the market are actually hybrid strains, crossing sativa and indica plants to create unique cannabis cultivars. These hybrids often blur the lines between expected effects.

Understanding the differences between indica and sativa strains might help when smoking flower. But when consuming cannabis edibles? It’s all about the formulation.

And that’s where Mood shines.

Why Edibles Don’t Fit the Old Labels

Indica and sativa edibles don’t act like their flower counterparts.

When you eat cannabis products, your body processes the cannabinoids and terpenes differently. You get delayed onset, longer duration, and potentially stronger physical effects depending on dose and formulation.

So the effects of an indica edible vs a sativa edible are less about the strain and more about the chemistry.

Mood skips the confusion and builds each edible around desired effects. Want focus without fog? Or a smooth drop into chill mode?

Mood’s effect-first approach means you don’t have to know cannabis strains by name — you just pick your vibe.

Marijuana vs Hemp: What’s the Difference?

Let’s clear up a major myth in the cannabis industry.

Marijuana and hemp both come from the cannabis plant. The main difference? THC concentration.

Marijuana strains contain more than 0.3% Delta 9 THC by dry weight. Hemp, on the other hand, contains less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC, making it federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill.

Mood uses only hemp-derived cannabinoids to craft cannabis products that are potent, legal, and shippable nationwide.

So while the word “marijuana” might pop up in older conversations around indica and sativa strains, the new school of cannabis use focuses on hemp-based, precisely-formulated edibles with real psychoactive effects.

And yes — those calming effects, euphoric highs, and additional benefits still apply.

Mood’s Modern Approach to Edibles

Forget navigating the endless maze of cannabis cultivars and consumption methods.

Mood makes cannabis consumption simple. Each edible is built from the ground up using cannabinoids and terpenes chosen for their effect, not a strain name.

You won’t find vague descriptions or mystery outcomes. Just clearly labeled effects—Energized, Focused, Aroused, Chill, Sleepy — backed by modern science and top-tier ingredients.

Whether you’re new to consuming cannabis or a seasoned enthusiast, Mood makes every experience intuitive and intentional.
