In the terms Indica and Sativa, to what substance do they refer?

Marijuana

Indica and Sativa are terms used to classify types of the cannabis plant, which is the source of marijuana. They refer to marijuana, not tobacco, alcohol, or synthetic drugs. While these labels once helped describe different effects or plant characteristics, modern hybrids mean the distinction isn’t a reliable predictor of what a product will do; what matters here is that both names point to cannabis used to produce marijuana. Tobacco comes from Nicotiana, alcohol is ethanol from fermented substances, and synthetic drugs are manufactured chemicals—none of these are what Indica and Sativa describe.
