Sativa Strains
Sativa, along with indica, is one of the two main species of cannabis. Each species delivers a different high and comes with various medical benefits, but sativa is more commonly associated with euphoria and productivity than its more sedate cousin. As a result, sativa is often used as a herbal treatment for ailments such as ADHD, depression and bipolar disorder.
At Shango, we supply a broad selection of sativa strains that are available as pure bud, concentrates, vape cartridges and edibles. With sativa strains varying in strength and flavor, we have the perfect remedy for you, whether you need a fast-acting pain reliever or a lasting mood-lifter.
We only source sativa strains from licensed and regulated suppliers that have our seal of approval. All our strains are monitored for quality control throughout every stage of the production process, from planting and harvesting to cultivating and packaging.
If you’d rather avoid potentially addictive and dangerous pharmaceutical drugs to treat pain or a mental health condition, we highly recommend trying sativa. We have dozens of strains available at our stores in Las Vegas and Portland. If you live in Oregon, you can order sativa online for delivery.
What Are the Most Popular Sativa Strains?
Cannabis sativa is native to eastern Asia, and it’s been cultivated throughout history as a source of food, seed oil, medicine and industrial fiber. Today’s sativa strains are usually hybrids of both sativa and indica, with the sativa dominant strains containing the most THC (the main psychoactive constituent of cannabis). Some of the most popular strains in the US are:
- Ghost Train Haze
- Sour Diesel
- Bruce Banner
- Trainwreck
- Green Crack
- Amnesia Haze
- Euforia
- Jack Herer
- Maui Wowie
- Laughing Buddha
Because each strain varies in strength, we suggest talking to our professionals to find out which one will best suit your lifestyle.
What Are the Medical Uses for Sativa?
Because sativa contains more THC than indica, it’s generally used to treat mental health conditions rather than pain or physical illnesses. Medical uses for sativa dominant strains include:
- Appetite stimulation
- Depression relief
- Increased energy
- Elevated mood
- Improved focus and creativity
You should be aware that sativa is generally considered more mind-altering than indica. Side effects are rare, but they can include paranoia, dry mouth, itchy eyes, light-headedness, headaches, and anxiety. Visit our store or call us for advice on which strain to purchase.

What Kind of High Do Sativa Strains Give You?
Unlike indica, which gives you a “body high”, sativa is more commonly associated with a “mind high”. While indica can make you feel drowsy and relaxed, sativa is more likely to make you feel energized, productive and euphoric. If you consume cannabis throughout the day, you might want to try sativa rather than indica. Or, you can try one of our hybrids.
