Indica vs. Sativa—What It Really Means
Labels like “indica” and “sativa” are broad botanical categories, not guarantees of effect. Real‑world experiences depend more on the chemotype (THC/CBD levels and terpene blend) and your tolerance. Still, most growers and menus list Blue Dream as sativa‑leaning and Blueberry as indica‑leaning, which aligns with many user reports.
When to Choose Each
Pick Blue Dream for daytime creativity, social activities, or a balanced boost without heavy couch‑lock.
Pick Blueberry for evening relaxation, post‑work stress relief, or support with winding down.
