Understanding cannabis strains is one of the most important parts of starting your medical cannabis journey. Each strain is unique, and knowing the difference can help you find better relief for your condition. Whether you are just beginning or looking to refine your treatment, GrowLegally is here to guide you. From our Medical Cannabis Clinic in Toronto, we support patients across Ontario and all provinces in Canada with trusted, personalized care for Medical Cannabis use.
There are three primary strain categories: Indica, Sativa, and Hybrid. Indicas are often chosen for nighttime use due to their calming, body-focused effects. Sativas tend to be more uplifting and energizing, making them ideal for daytime relief. Hybrids combine elements of both and can be tailored to suit a range of symptoms, depending on their genetic makeup and terpene profile.
Strains also differ by cannabinoid content. THC and CBD are the most well-known, but other compounds and terpenes—like myrcene, limonene, and pinene—can impact the way a strain works with your body. That is why two people using the same product may feel very different effects. What matters most is how it interacts with your individual condition, symptoms, and overall wellness.
At GrowLegally, we take the time to understand your needs. Whether you are dealing with chronic pain, anxiety, arthritis, sleep challenges, or PTSD, we work with you to find a strain and format that fits. Since our early days, we have proudly helped Canadian veterans access medical cannabis through Health Canada, supporting them with doctor authorizations and personalized guidance every step of the way.
We also help patients apply for a Possession Only licence or ACMPR grow licence through Health Canada. If you are registering with a licensed producer for your medication, this service is completely free. Our team has vetted LPs since the very first licences were issued in Canada, and we have preferred relationships with some of the best in the country. This means you get access to top-quality products, trusted sources, and fair pricing—all without paying us a dime.
Whether you prefer oils, capsules, flower, vapes, or edibles, knowing the right strain makes all the difference. We ensure you get expert care and support from the first consultation through every renewal.
