Marijuana leaves and their effects are often broken into Indicas and Sativas. Indicas are short but thick leaves and are associated with relaxation and often used for a greater body high and stress relief. Sativas are longer but thinner leaves that are often used for a more active high that boost creativity without added fatigue or sedation. There are also many hybrids with terpenes that can give you the desired high.
