Cannabis is a species of flowering herb that is split into three subspecies: Indica, sativa, and ruderalis. Ruderalis plants are small and yield relatively little medicine; what they do provide lacks potency and is generally not appealing to patients. Because of this, ruderalis strains are typically avoided by breeders and cultivators; the focus of the medical cannabis community is on indica and sativa strains.Indica and sativa plants differ not only in their physiological effects, but also in their appearance. Indica plants are short and stocky, featuring leaves that are broad and “chunky.” Sativa plants tend to be taller and skinnier and may even be lanky in appearance, with leaves that are thin and pointed.

How to Care for the Plant
Water
Hemp seedlings perform best at a 65-70% humidity range. Keep the humidity dome over the seedlings for the first week or two to manage humidity levels.
Fertilizer
Use a water-soluble, nitrogen-rich fertilizer with a target 3:1:2 NPK ratio at 1/4 the recommended application strength, to water or mist seedlings until transplanting.
Sunlight
Keep grow lights on 18-24 hours per day. If seedlings stretch, lower grow lamps closer to the plants and add time to their light cycle. Use a timer to automate the grow lamps.
