Cannabis Sativa: cultivated hemp

Plants of cannabis sativa, or cultivated hemp , are native to equatorial regions such as Jamaica. Accustomed to the heat, sativa is a high plant that easily reaches several meters in height (usually around 1m80 and up to 6 meters), and does so in just a few months. It is also distinguished by long, slender leaves.

In industry, sativa is particularly appreciated for the strength of its fibers, which can be used in fields as varied as construction,cosmetics or paper-making. Its fibers also make an excellent raw material for weaving ropes and fabrics.

When consumed, it is known for its psychotropic effects and its high natural THC content. It is then credited with euphoric effects, providing its consumer with a strong dose of energy. It is thus often preferred for daytime use since it acts directly on the brain. It motivates, excites and encourages creativity.

Thanks to the selection and reproduction of plants with low THC content and high CBD concentration, there are now perfectly legal sativa plants in France, Belgium, Luxembourg and the rest of Europe. In particular, it is these EU-approved plants that are used as industrial hemp or at the origin of the products offered by sensemilla shop .

Effects of cannabis sativa, for a cerebral high

Cannabis sativa is distinguished not only by its slender buds and long, slender leaves, but also by the effects it produces. When it comes to sensations, expect to receive a high dose of energy, stimulating above all the mind and ideal during the day.

Aromas, meanwhile, are predominantly tropical, alternating between fruity and floral tastes, depending on the variety. If cannabis sativa were a beer, it would tend more towards an IPA, with its hops, often American, scented with passion fruit and mango.

Cannabis sativa CBD: top 10 best legal strains

1. Strawberry Haze

As its name suggests, Strawberry Haze is a fruity sativa weed that smells of strawberries and wild berries. Notably derived from a Swiss Sativa, it derives its sweetness from this. The rest of her family tree is made up of Northern Light #5 and Haze C , which bring her Thai and Afghan roots. Originally, it boasted an impressive ratio of 20% THC to just over 1% CBD. Strawberry Haze CBD reverses the trend, with 12 to 14% cannabidiol and less than 0.2% THC, making the variety perfectly legal in Franceas in the rest of the European Union.

2. New York City Diesel

The New York City Diesel is a hybrid, sativa-dominant strain. This gives it a nice balance, providing an energy boost while feeling soothed. In this sense, it's a perfect alternative to Sour Diesel, which comes a little further down this top. What's more, you can count on its typical diesel taste, sublimated by citrus and pepper notes that bring subtlety to its fiery temperament. If you like Diesel and Haze, New York City Diesel CBD is for you!

3. Harlequin

Another sativa-dominant hybrid with character! The Harlequin is often the favorite strain of Nepalese hash lovers, familiar with its subtle berry aromas, with flavors that are at once woody, flowery and earthy. Harlequin CBD is ideal for those who want to relax, while maintaining an energy level that will allow them to fully enjoy this colorful strain!

4. Orange Bud

A classic among classics, Orange Bud clearly leans in favor of weed sativas, enabling it to offer an excellent energy/headiness ratio. On the genetic side, we're on a purely Skunk marriage dating back to the 1980s. The result is an energizing strain full of tropical flavours. Orange Bud CBD is ideal for those for whom exoticism rhymes with energy.

5. Amnesia Haze

Amnesia Haze CBD flowers take the traditional strain of the same name to the land of legality. Energizing and a good-humor vector, Amnesia Haze has established itself among marijuana enthusiasts as a mythical, must-have variety. Vegetal, peppery and lemony, it will transport you into pleasant, creative mists ("haze").

6. ACDC

The ACDC, in addition to the name of a mythical band, takes the phenotype of Cannatonic, a variety naturally loaded with CBD. Leaving you with a clear head, it lets you take full advantage of cannabidiol's soothing virtues. It thus helps to relax and reduce anxiety, qualities that allow it, in some countries, to join the ranks of therapeutic cannabis.

7. Dance World

Between Dance World and Dance Hall, it was a tough choice when it came to compiling this top 10 list of the best CBD-rich cannabis sativa strains. It has to be said that Dance World is a direct descendant of Dance Hall and therefore takes on some of its qualities, including its energizing character. If it grows like an indica, it behaves like a sativa weed in terms of effects. Its earthy, spicy notes will finish off any marijuana lover's experience.

8. Sour Tsunami

Sour Tsunami is, quite literally, an acid tide raz. It's a cross between NYC Diesel and Sour Diesel, both of which feature in this top, which says a lot about the quality of its origins. Herbal and fruity, Sour Tsunami is a soothing hybrid that made an early name for itself on the modern cannabic scene as one of the first strains specifically designed for its high natural cannabidiol and anecdotal, THC content.

9. Sour Diesel

The Sour Diesel, or Sour D to those in the know, is fully in the Diesel lineage , with its instantly recognizable aromas. Peppery and lemony, it first appeared in the early 1990s and quickly became one of the superstars of the black market. Now available in a cannabidiol-rich version, it's making a logical comeback, legally this time!

10. Hulkberry

Let's end as we began, on notes of red fruit and, of course, strawberry. The Hulkberry comes to us straight from the meeting of OG Kush and Diesel Strawberry. All the strength of the Hulk, hidden behind subtle aromas of wild berries. Drink in moderation!
