Indica vs sativa: a useful myth

The classic shorthand — indica relaxes you, sativa energises you — is a handy starting point but botanically loose. Decades of crossbreeding mean almost everything sold today is a hybrid, and the labels often describe plant shape more than effect.

What actually drives the experience is the chemistry: the THC:CBD ratio and the terpene mix, plus your own tolerance, dose, and setting. Two "sativas" can feel completely different.

So use the indica/sativa label as a rough compass, not a guarantee. In Greenpert it maps to the indica % slider, which is one input among several — pay just as much attention to the effect and terpene bars when picking a strain.
