Indica plants are short, bushy, mature early, have more chlorophyll and less accessory pigments (accessory pigments protect the plant from excessive sunlight).
As Indica strains have more chlorophyll than sativa they grow and mature faster.

Sativa plants are taller, take longer to mature, have less chlorophyll and more accessory pigments (accessory pigments protect the plant from excessive sunlight).
As Sativa strains have less chlorophyll than Indica they take longer to grow, mature, and require more light.

Hybrid plants have a combination of both Indica and Sativa growth characteristics which are relative to strain ratio.

If you want advice on which strain or hybrid to grow, you must include enough information:
  • Are you growing indoors or outdoors?
  • What climate zone do you live in?
  • Sativa or indica?
  • Soil or hydro?
  • Do you prefer an up high or a couch stone?
  • Are your priorities yield and finishing time or quality and aroma?

This should be current:

marijuana seeds are still illegal in many parts of the world, including the United States. Please check local laws before ordering and always use a safe address. Never order the marijuana seeds directly to your grow.

CLICK HERE for the list of marijuana seeds retailers

All of the Overgrow Sponsors have proven to be safe vendors of high quality seeds from the highest quality breeders. marijuana seeds are a live product and will never be the same from batch to batch so order at your own risk!

It is no longer updated, but for archives of ratings of Cannabis / marijuana seed retailers and advice on ordering, see: Seedbank Update

Ok i want to grow indoors and the climate is england so its not exactly warm.
i plan to have both reasonably fast flowering but i want a decent aroma.
im thinking more indica then sativa and i want to grow in soil.
I've been told that white widow or nothern lights would be good to start with and they are quite easy to grow, is this true?

Definatly pick an indica to grow in doors.Its shorter faster and better highs then the sativas.Also easier to grow and more forgiving.If you want big buds fast with maybe a sog do an Ak-47 or Ak-48 to start also.They are good learning high yield strains.good luck on it

Filthy is correct indica would be the best choice for starters. I

ndica plants have a heavy, stony high that is relaxing and can help different medical problems.

Sativa plants have an energetic, cerebral high which can stimulate brain activity.

Hybrid strains have a combination of both Indica and Sativa highs which are relative to strain ratio.

So when you smoke how do you want to feel?
