The 5 Most Potent Indica Cannabis Strains (2020 Update)
After a tension-filled day of being on top of everything, all we want to do is relax. If that’s your goal, too, then you could use some quality indica flower. For us cannabis enthusiasts, only the best will do. Gear up for red eyes, a ruthless appetite, and lots of laughs. These five indica strains will blow your mind and melt your tension in 2020.
Indica-dominant strains serve up a mellow, relaxing, and stoning experience. However, not all of them soothe the body to the same degree. Here at Royal Queen Seeds, our expert breeders have produced some of the most potent, body-slamming indica strains on Earth.
We’ve assembled a list of classics and newcomers alike, all with one thing in common: sheer strength. With their unique blends of terpenes and high THC levels, these strains deeply pacify the body and mind.
Without further ado, these are our top five indica strains of 2020.
GREEN GELATO
Even with our massive genetic archive, Green Gelato ranks among the most popular indica hybrids, and for good reason. She packs THC levels rarely seen elsewhere, and a mouth-watering mix of aromatic terpenes complements her incredible potency. She puts out compact flowers that boast stunning shades of dark green, deep purple, orange, and yellow.
These pretty blossoms pack a heavy trichome load, a physical sign of the mind-blowing THC content of 27%. Approach this strain with caution, especially if you haven’t been smoking cannabis for very long. High productivity also sits high up on Green Gelato’s long list of impressive traits. She develops a thick and fruitful canopy both indoors and outdoors, considering she receives adequate nutrition and a warm environment.

TRIPLE G
Our breeders forged Triple G using two of the most powerful specimens in our seed library, Royal Gorilla and Green Gelato. They utilised the former for its potency, and the latter for its sugary sweet flavours. After some tweaking, they landed on a genetically stable 85% indica-dominant specimen. Triple G's THC content of 26% will place your mind into a still and blissful state while flavours of pine, earthiness, and sweetness set your tongue ablaze.
She won’t match the productivity of sativa giants, but her potency means her relatively strong yields last longer than expected. Indoor plants will produce 525–575g/m² after a brief flowering time of 8–9 weeks. This speed makes her perfect for small-scale commercial growers and low-key cultivators.

WEDDING GELATO
Along with the classic Gelato, our team blended Wedding Cake and Gelato 33 to achieve the breathtaking Wedding Gelato. With a total of 60% indica genetics and 40% sativa, the strain’s effects are on the stoning and relaxing end of the spectrum. Featuring deep orange pistils on a deep purple canvas, her gorgeous looks are easily one of her best traits.
The beauty of these buds doesn’t stop at stunning colours, though. In fact, the delightful scents and tastes of citrus, herbs, pepper, and sweetness makes them even more attractive. Just don’t let her beauty make you drop your guard. THC levels of 25% and a body-slamming high are nothing to take lightly! Expect a good yield of 450–550g/m² after 8–9 weeks of flowering.

SHERBET QUEEN
Sherbet Queen descends from a flavoursome and stoning lineage of Pink Panties and Sunset Sherbet, which infused the strain with a super-stoney high and a rich blend of terpenes including humulene and limonene. Her colourful and frosty flowers produce a heavy THC content of 24%. Take things easy to avoid sinking into the couch right away. An ideal dose will plunge your mind into a meditative space and make everything seem a little less serious; one toke too many will hit you with an overpowering urge to take a nap.
It won’t take long—around 7–9 weeks—until you’re trimming a yield of 450–525g/m². Outdoor plants take on a taller and bushier structure. Let your plants run wild and produce one massive cola, or train them into a neater and more productive canopy that sits at around 140cm. She’ll put out 450–500g/plant in October.
