The Best Marijuana Strains & Products for Sleep

While many people smoke weed for their enjoyment, keep in mind that cannabis products can also help with relaxation. The euphoric feeling you get when consuming THC products can also help with anxiety, pain relief, appetite, and even sleep. 

Does Weed Help You Sleep?

There are countless CBD and THC products that can help a person wind down at the end of the night. Depending on the type of weed you smoke, additional cannabinoids will flood into your endocannabinoid system and stimulate the feeling of tiredness. This ultimately means that a puff (or a snack) before heading to bed may be all you need in your fight against insomnia.

Is Indica Better for Sleep?

It’s worth noting that indica strains are generally preferred for sleep due to their higher THC content, though there are always exceptions. If you’re unsure about what strain of weed is good for sleep, below is a list of popular marijuana strains and other THC & CBD products that can help you get some much-needed rest. And, lucky for you, you’ll be able to find all of these products at one or both of our EarthMed Dispensaries.
