Thought this is pretty appropriate for understanding cannabis types.
I find the nearer a strain is to landrace genetics the more medicinal it'll be .
More equatorial strains will be Sativa and by nature are tall lanky plants and good for focus and motivation.
The other side of the spectrum is Indica which will grow smaller but chunkier ,be more sedating and relaxing by nature.
Most strains available to us are a balance between these two.
Ruderalis is the other type of cannabis that has no medicinal benefits except for it can add an autoflowering aspect to genetics meaning they'll flower in any light cycle, Companies will use this to speed up production but it seems this is just a commercial cost cutting thing and probably be to the detriment of the finished product.
