Cannabis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Cannabaceae. 

The number of species within the genus is disputed. Three species may be recognized: 

 Cannabis sativa
 Cannabis indica
 Cannabis ruderalis


There are two main types of cannabis, Rick recommends "Indica or indica dominant strains" to make the oil with for internal conditions such as cancer:

Indica = relax
Sativa = energise

If we use the wrong type of cannabis strain(s) ( Sativa or sativa dominant ) it can keep the patient awake and be unpleasant as they cannot rest and people want to stop the protocol altogether.

Most cannabis dealers / dispensaries know the strain of cannabis they sell - a simple Google search will tell us if its indica or sativa ( or a mix of both plus the % of the indica ).
In some situations we have to use what is available - ( so make a smaller batch with an ounce or 2 ) while you look for better indica strains.

Ruderalis is an auto flower that is generally speaking much smaller and has less of the THC that we look for in a strain to make the homemade RSO, it is not mentioned as part of Rick's protocol.

If the plant produces a "Couch lock" effect when recreational users smoke / vape it, it normally indicates an Indica strain that may be suitable.

Always research the name of the strain and seed company to verify its possible THC content to see if it's suitable.

Rick recommends using either pure Indica or 90% Indica dominant strains, high in THC ( typically 20 to 25%++ ) and low in CBD ( typically 1% ).
