Understanding Sativa, Indica, and Hybrid Strains

Understanding what sets the three main categories of cannabis products apart from each other is key when it comes to making sure that you are considering cannabis strains that are actually capable of providing the specific benefits you have in mind. Cannabis strains are typically Indica dominant or Sativa dominant, which describe the types of plants that are used to make them. Indica strains contain higher levels of CBD than THC, while Sativa strains contain more THC than CBD. 

Sativa strains are made from tall and thin leaves, and they are generally known for their energizing properties. While there are exceptions, these strains are typically the best starting point when considering cannabis products that have the best potential to boost productivity. Indica strains generally take the opposite approach. These strains are made from shorter and wider leaves, and they provide a calming and relaxing effect that often makes them a more appropriate choice for enjoying in the evening than earlier in the day. Hybrid strains are capable of providing reasonably high results in both areas. 

Top Energizing Strains for Productivity 

Most types of cannabis that are known for providing energy and productivity are classified as Sativa strains. Some of the most popular options to try when exploring productivity-boosting cannabis products include: 

• Golden Goat 
• White Buffalo
• White Durban 
• Durban Zkittlez 
• Quantum Kush
• Jack Herer
• L'Orange
• Super Lemon Haze 
• Night Owl Haze 
• Sour Diesel 
• Jet Fuel OG 

Combining Cannabis With Productive Techniques

Responsible cannabis consumption can be a helpful part of a productive lifestyle, but it is generally a good idea to avoid relying too heavily on its effects alone for more than occasional needs. How a specific product affects your body may fluctuate over time if you consume an unusually high amount of it, and many products are impractical or illegal to consume at work or in certain other public places. Combining your new favorite cannabis product with a variety of productivity techniques often provides stronger and more sustainable results. Some ideas for adding non-cannabis productivity to your life include: 

• Using a planner and creating a to-do list each day 
• Getting plenty of sleep and taking short power naps as needed 
• Using time blocks to focus on a specific task for a specific amount of time 
• Finding ways to reduce interruptions, such as turning off notifications on devices you use for work and asking family members or coworkers to avoid talking to you frequently while you are working
• Identifying specific ways in which you may be causing your productivity issues and taking steps to avoid sabotaging yourself
