Product details
Origins
This strain of cannabis is one of the most well-known Indica strains. It is a mixture of KC 33 and Afghani.
Composition
Patients can purchase Tilray Indica Strong in containers with 5 grams of the whole, dried plant flower. Each batch targets a THC level of 21.5% and a CBD level of less than 1%.
The following terpenes are present in this strain: a-pinene, Myrcene, and Caryophyllene. Terpenes are a vital component of the cannabis plant and they contribute to the benefits of medical cannabis. In fact, healers have utilised the a-pinene terpene (from trees) for centuries to help treat infections and wounds. Myrcene is found in mangoes, and interestingly, research has indicated that consuming mangos before consuming this strain of cannabis may increase its absorption rate and strengthen the benefits and effects of THC. Caryophyllene is well-regarded as a balancing terpene that has demonstrated potential in treating the symptoms of depression and anxiety.
