Indoor cannabis strains are, in the Northern hemisphere, generally only intended for growing indoors with artificial light. The optimal light conditions available indoors will allow these strains to reach their full potential.
Outdoor cannabis strains are those that may be grown outside during spring and summer. Their hardiness and early-flowering tendencies will allow them to ripen even in a short, cool summer.
Greenhouse strains are suitable for the widest range of growing conditions. Greenhouse cannabis seeds may be grown indoors with artificial lights just as successfully as the regular indoor strains, but they can also be grown in a greenhouse with just the power of the sun.
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the principal psychoactive constituent (or cannabinoid) of the cannabis plant. THC has mild to moderate analgesic effects and has marked antiemetic properties.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is considered to have a wider scope of medical applications than tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). A 2010 study found that strains of cannabis containing higher concentrations of cannabidiol did not produce short-term memory impairment vs. strains with similar concentrations of THC, but lower concentrations of CBD. Cannabidiol is what gives cannabis its sedative effect.
