this information is pretty easy to find
google sativa vs indica
Cannabis Sativa Cannabis Sativa is a tall, slower growing and maturing plant that typically has long thin leaves which may vary in color from light green to darker greens. Sativa buds are long and thin and turn red as they mature in a warm environment. In cooler environments the buds may be slightly purple. Sativa plants smell sweet and fruity and the smoke is generally quite mild. It is a source of fiber for rope and other products.
The cannabis sativa medicating effect is often characterized as uplifting and energetic. The effects of a cannabis sativa are mostly cerebral. They give a feeling of optimism and well-being, as well as providing a good measure of pain relief for certain symptoms. A few pure sativas are also very high in THC content. They are known to have a quite spacey, or hallucinogenic, effect. Sativas are a good choice for daytime medication.
Cannabis Indica Cannabis indica is a short to moderate height bushy plant, generally between 3 and 6 feet, and its leaves have short broad fingers. The leaves are generally dark green, and are sometimes tinged with purple. As they near maturity, the leaves may become significantly more purple. It is a strong smelling plant with a “stinky” or “skunky” smell. The smoke of indicas is generally thick and more prone to cause coughing when inhaled. Indicas are the traditional source of hashish.
The cannabis indica medicating effect is most often described as a pleasant body buzz. Indicas are great for relaxation, stress relief, and for an overall sense of calm and serenity. Cannabis indicas are also very effective for overall body pain relief, and often used in the treatment of insomnia. They are the late evening choice of many patients as an all-night sleep aid. A few pure indica strains are very potent in THC, and will cause the “couchlock” effect, enabling the patient to simply sit still and enjoy the experience of the medicine.

He probably meant when dealing with amounts like grams or something.
But yes, if the search engine were used more often, half of these posts would cease to exist.

I've been smoking for two years and as far as the psychedelic properties of pot are consistant in both strains I say this becaues during the past two years I've tried dmt, mdma ,salvia shrooms and pot of course and I have taken up medatating w/ my trips and pot exibits small trates of many of these other ethogens and indicas are more like mdma If used as a consintrate and none of the next week side effects and indicas can sedate you in trance state of creative minded medatation such as dmt salvia and shrooms they have even triggered flash back to a trip and I could continue where I left off I think this all depends on ones ability to enter theses other dymentions of mental being
