Everything You Need to Know About What is the Strongest Weed

Sativas are the energizing strains. They are the ones that give you a pick-me-up, and often a boost, both physically and mentally. If you want to get a heady high and still have energy, sativas are the way to go. You can use them to battle stress and anxiety or use them for creative pursuits. Want to be a wake-and-bake smoker? Then go with a sativa, and if you get a strong-enough strain it can give you a bigger boost in the morning than your coffee. Now, at this point, we will note that pure sativas and pure indicas are getting increasingly rare. Hybrids are the name of the game after all these years of selective breeding and cross-breeding on the marijuana front. Now, there are balanced hybrids, but there are also hybrids that are sativa dominant or indica dominant. For the purposes of this article, we will toss in dominant strains into these sections, provided they are still synonymous with the effect of that type of cannabis. Perhaps the quintessential sativa these days is Durban Poison. We have a Durban Poison strain that comes in at 23 percent THC. Anything over 20 percent is packing a real punch. Not only that, our Durban Poison comes in an autoflowering variety. That means the plant will flower based on age, not due to light cycling. This is easier for beginner growers. Durban Poison is earthy, spicy, piney, and great for anxiety. If you are looking for a potent sativa, we definitely would go with Durban Poison. It’s definitely up there among the strongest weed strains.

Sativas are energizing, while indicas rule the roost for people who want to chill out—looking for a relaxing body high? Want to ease sore muscles and tension in your body and mind? Need help sleeping, perhaps fighting insomnia? Then indica is what you are looking for! Indicas are great for mellowing out. Just don’t use them when you need to be busy and productive, especially if you are using one of the strongest weed strains which is an indica. These strains are known for inducing “couch lock,” so if you are using a particularly-potent indica, you might be in for a day of just hanging out and lazing on the couch. We mentioned our 23-percent THC Durban Poison that is of the autoflowering variety. We have a potent, popular indica that is autoflowering as well. Meet Critical Purple, which comes in at a whopping 27 percent THC. That gives this strain a powerful sedative effect, which is what a lot of marijuana smokers want, of course. Otherwise, why would Critical Purple routinely be one of our most popular strains? It’s fruity and sweet flavor and aroma help as well, of course.

Hey, we’ve been on an autoflowering kick thus far, so why not stay in that realm? Heavy-duty THC and an easy plant to grow and nurture? Talk about a winning combination! White Widow is available in an autoflowering form from Growers Choice as well, and it’s a nicely-balanced hybrid. And, of course, it is still quite strong. White Widow tends to come in at 26 percent THC. People tend to characterize White Widow as providing a heady high, but also still being relaxing. Truly, it’s a best-of-both-world situation with this hybrid strain. When you are trying a strong strain for the first time, though, we recommend taking it easy. Don’t jump in right from the get-go and overdo it! Moderation is not a dirty word.

You know, maybe getting super high isn’t for you. Is strong weed still in the cards? In a way, yes. Let us introduce you to high-CBD medical strains. These strains focus more on a different cannabinoid, CBD. They tend to be low on THC but high in CBD, a chemical compound that helps with medical issues. Is your primary goal with marijuana to help out your physical and mental health? Then the strongest weed for you may be the weed that is strongest on the CBD front. We have several high-CBD medical strains you might want to consider, which include:

• Critical Mango
• Critical Mass
• Blueberry
• Moby Dick
• Shark
