Top 10 Best Strains For Sleep 2018

10 strains to sleep

Sleep. We need it, in quantity and quality. The lack of it, can make everything else in your life more difficult to deal with. We’ve all been there, the alarm goes off, you open your eyes, and immediately realize it’s going to be a loooooong day.

If you are a regular smoker it might be that you are not getting a proper rest because you`re smoking the wrong strain before going to sleep. If you have trouble sleeping or suffer from insomnia it might be that the right variety will sort out your problem and send you to a land of pleasant dreams and infinite wisdom. In this article, we’ll sort out the 10 best strains out there, for getting a good night´s sleep.

The beneficial effects of cannabis on the sleep cycle depend a lot on you; on how often, how much, when and of course the strain you smoke. Usually the Indica varieties, known for its ¨body high¨ and relaxation effects, are more suited to be used before going to sleep. Because Sativas usually contribute to increased energy and brain activity they might not be the best choice if you are about to call it a night. Plants with a high level of THC can make your brain race around for a long time, which makes trying to sleep right after smoking not a very good idea, if you do like plants with high levels of THC its best to give it an hour or two between smoking and sleeping. If you have insomnia, plants with a high level of CBD and low level of THC might be your best bet, a good CBD-THC ratio might provide you with the ideal amount of relaxation to be back to dream land in no time. Studies show that heavy usage might affect some people negatively, while occasional smoking relieves most people of their sleeping problems. Dosage and frequency are complex matters, everyone is different and its really up to you to know what works and what doesn´t.   

With this in mind we made a selection of 10 strains (in no particular order) that can improve the relationship you’re having with your pillow.
