Sativa, Indica, or… Mood-Based? Rethinking How You Shop for Cannabis
Forget Sativa vs. Indica. PotMates helps you shop by effect—like Calm, Flow, Dream, and more. Here’s why it’s a smarter way to find your perfect high.

Still shopping by Sativa vs. Indica? You’re not alone. But the truth is: those categories barely scratch the surface. At PotMates, we help you shop by Mood—because it’s how it makes you feel that matters.
Why Indica vs. Sativa Is Outdated
Science shows that terpene + cannabinoid combos affect you more than strain names or plant structure. That’s why some Sativas make you sleepy and some Indicas make you social. It’s all about chemistry.
The PotMates Mood System
Our menu is organized by effect—so you can shop based on how you want to feel:
• Calm – For decompressing, reducing anxiety, quieting the mind
• Flow – For creative projects, dance floors, or hiking Forest Park
• Dream – For deep sleep, or those nights you never want to leave the couch
• Activate – For energy, movement, or midday vibes
• Relieve – For body tension, recovery, and inflammation
• Lift – For social hangs, mental elevation, and light euphoria
How We Curate
We lab-test every product for terpene content, potency, and subjective effects. Then we place it into the category it
actually
belongs in—not just what the label says.
