Nighttime weed strains

Table of Contents

We’ve all been there: you’re snuggled up into bed, it’s late, and, suddenly, you’re no longer tired. Thankfully, that’s what nighttime weed strains are for. 

 

Here are some of the best options for granting your mind and body some natural relief — and a whole lot of sleepiness. 

Bedtime Weed: Indicas or Sativas? 

In the cannabis world, there are so many different strains that are popular specifically for their sedative effects. This means that even the most wired people can often feel relaxed, heavy-bodied, and potentially sleepy after a few puffs of these strains. 

While most people associate sleepy effects with indica strains, this isn’t always the case. In fact, both indica and sativa strains can help you experience some restful sleep.

Indica and indica-dominant hybrid strains tend to have terpenes that carry more relaxing effects than sativas and sativa-dominant hybrids. But, that’s not to say that you won’t find a nice hybrid strain, or even a sativa, that gives you the decompression you need. 

Typically, however, if you’re just diving in the world of weed, going straight for an indica strain tends to be a good option. 

What matters is that you find the right cannabis strain that works for you

Best Cannabis Strains for Sleep-Inducing Properties

Your options of high-quality, tasty nighttime cannabis strains are plentiful nowadays. But, with so many choices, deciding on the right one for your bedtime routine can feel tough. 

 

That’s why we’re here. 

 

Below, we’ve listed five of the best nighttime marijuana strains available on the market today. Not only are these strains fantastic for winding down the brain and body, but you can easily find them at your local dispensary, too. 

Purple Punch

If you’re looking for a full-bodied strain to help you decompress, Purple Punch is the one for you.

 

Purple Punch is the product of famous Larry OG and Granddaddy Purple strains, so it’s no wonder this weed has become so prolific in the cannabis industry. 

 

Many people find that Purple Punch offers a strong initial cerebral high that melts down throughout the body, making it great for a good night’s sleep. 

 

Best For: Body pain, nausea, racing thoughts

Green Gelato 

Gelato strains, in general, are some of my favorites. But this one takes the cake for the strongest nighttime cannabis strain out there. 

 

Green Gelato is a newer strain on the market. This indica-dominant hybrid is a cross between Sunset Sherbet and Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies (so you can bet this one is oh-so-tasty), making it the perfect strain for promoting deep relaxation and improved sleep quality.

 

It offers relatively high THC levels that makes it good for experienced consumers who are seeking something extra-potent for their bedtime routine. So, don’t be surprised when you find yourself melting into your pillows after a few hits. 

 

Best For: Insomnia, body pain, depression symptoms

Rainbow Runtz

Get ready for some high THC levels, y’all. Rainbow Runtz is a super-potent indica cannabis strain that comes from Zkittles and DoSiDos. 

This strain offers properties that are ideal for enjoying after a long stressful day, not necessarily right before bed. Instead, many people find that Rainbow Runtz offers the perfect relaxing effects to help them transition from the bustling day to the calmer evening. 

So, grab your favorite book, get cozy, and take a few puffs from the Rainbow Runtz strain. Before you know it, you’ll be ready to tuck yourself in. 

Best For: Reducing stress, calming the mind, boosting appetite

Northern Lights

If there’s one strain for sleep that you’ve heard of, it’s Northern Lights.

 

Northern Light is one of the most popular indica strains on the market, and it has been for quite some time.

 

Many people turn to this cannabis strain to help improve sleep quality, especially in the face of sleep disorders.

 

As one of the best nighttime strains on the market, particularly for medical marijuana patients seeking relief from chronic pain, you’ll likely notice the full-bodied effects that its genetics brings. After all, Northern Lights is a beautiful mix of Afghani with Thai.

 

Best For: Insomnia, chronic pain, deep sleep

Slurricane

When you want to completely dissolve into the comfort of bed, there’s no better nighttime weed strain to turn to than Slurricane. 

 

This heavy indica strain is the cross between DoSiDos and Purple Punch, so it’s no wonder that it produces heavy full-bodied highs. In fact, Slurricane is known for its couch-lock-like effects — so you know that a restful night’s sleep is in your future with this bud. 

 

Whether you’re having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, Slurricane and its strong indica properties may be exactly what your brain and body need to decompress. 

 

Best For: Promoting relaxation, body pain, high stress levels

About the author

Aspen Noonan isn’t your average CEO, and she’s not trying to be. As the powerhouse behind Elevate Holistics, Aspen is on a mission to make medical marijuana access easier, faster, and way less intimidating. What started with answering phones and scheduling appointments turned into building one of the most trusted telehealth platforms in cannabis. She's certified through Cannabis Training University and Healer.com, but her real education? Listening to patients and living it herself. Aspen isn’t just running a company. She’s helping lead a movement. A cannabis patient, mom, and fierce believer in plant medicine, she’s working to normalize weed in a world that still whispers about it. Her take? If you can unwind with a glass of wine, you should be able to do the same with cannabis. No shame, no stigma, no side-eye. Inside the business, Aspen runs a tight ship built on the strong foundation already in place. She’s focused on making patients happy, improving systems, and finding smarter ways to work. Since taking the reins at Elevate Holistics, she’s streamlined turnaround times, improved tech, and introduced a four-day workweek to support team balance and performance. She believes burnout is out. Balance is in. And when teams feel good, they do great work. Outside of Elevate, Aspen mentors other entrepreneurs (especially women breaking into crowded spaces), helps patients feel seen and empowered, and occasionally jumps on a podcast to speak the truth about cannabis and leadership. You may have heard her on Getting Elevated with Aspen Noonan (CannaBlogger’s Corner) and The Healing Plant: Cannabis Myths vs. Medical Miracles (Life Conversations with a Twist) -  insights that dive deep into plant medicine, leadership, and breaking stigma. She also trained Arlee Riveland, now CEO of Craft Telemedicine, and she’s just getting started. Aspen’s not here to follow rules. She’s here to rewrite them. For healthcare. For cannabis. For women in business. And for her daughter, who she hopes sees every day that purpose, power, and balance can all belong in the same life.
