Cannabis strains are a pure or hybrid genetic variation of the plant Genus Cannabis. There are three main species: Cannabis Sativa, Cannabis Indica, and Cannabis Ruderalis.
Ruderalis is a particular strain that is not as popularly known as the others; however, it is a derivative of cannabis with the lowest THC levels.
Although they are popular among the cannabis community, hybrids are not considered a species as they are made of Sativa and Indica, with typically one or the other dominating the gene pool.
For marketing and medical marijuana purposes, cultivators will develop a cannabis strain to highlight specific desired characteristics, such as:
Color
Density
Flavor profile
Aroma
Medicinal benefits
Psychoactive effects
Cannabinoid percentages
THC vs. CBD content
Those within the cannabis community report nearly eight hundred unique weed strains worldwide, but that number has increased steadily.
It's important to remember that they all originated from landrace strains imported at some point in history. Different strains are created yearly as botanists experiment with crossing classic marijuana strains with hybrids to change their genetic qualities.
People illegally smuggled the cannabis plant into North America from outside countries in previous generations for decades. Landrace Sativa strains came from regions such as Thailand, South Africa, and Mexico, while landrace Indica strains originated from Afghanistan and India. Many classic and rare landrace strains got their names from the area of their origin.
The Couch Lock strain offers a pleasant physical buzz followed by a soothing body high that relaxes even the most stressed-out people. All in all, the unique Couch lock buds have a strong narcotic effect when the cannabis high wears off; trust us on this one, the name says it all when it comes to causing couch lock sensation.
The couch lock bud has a sweet and fruity flavor that is reminiscent of sugary berries. You may also notice hints of fresh honey, spicy diesel, and wood.
The aroma is similar to the flavor, with a strong earthy diesel overtone followed by blueberries, sweet bananas, and honey.

Couch Lock strains have moderate THC levels ranging between fourteen and nineteen percent, with little CBD content.
Couch Lock plants have a flowering time of between 54-70 days. It does best indoors and has a moderate yield of around fifteen to twenty ounces per plant. Being an indica dominant, it will resemble an Indica when growing and require similar conditions; however, the seeds are rare, so there isn’t too much cannabis cultivation information for this breed.
Cannabis Sativa does well in warmer regions of the Earth and can thrive with high humidity levels. The typical locations where Sativa strains are grown are Central America, South America, and Southeast Asia. Sativa is tall and slender with thin, light green leaves.
Many people report that smoking Sativa makes them feel energized, creative and focused. These psychological effects make Sativa strains best for daytime use because using them at night may cause insomnia due to the higher THC levels.
Easing depression symptoms
Headache and Pain relief
Decreasing Nausea
Fighting appetite loss
Better Focus
Head High over Body High
Cannabis Indica is commonly found growing in the dryer climates of the Middle East. They are short and bushy with large, dark green leaves. The buds tend to be much denser in Indica versus Sativa. Indica strains have higher CBD content than Sativa.
Most Indica weed contains an almost even amount of CBD and THC levels. Since Pure Indica strains tend to be relaxing, they're best for nighttime use due to the intense body high.
Relieving intense body and muscle pain
Reducing nausea and increasing appetite
Easing insomnia and promoting healthy sleep
Reducing anxiety symptoms
Depending on the location and quality of the flower, a gram of the Couch Lock strain typically runs around eighteen to twenty dollars.
