The smoldering heat is nearly here, which means that it’s time to get equipped for the summer. That usually consists of swapping out winter boots for sandals and getting the warmer gear packed away, but it’s also an excellent time to rearrange your choices where strains of weed are concerned. It might not seem like a traditional change, but now that the weather is nice, you’ll want to be active, and enjoy it, which means packing away the heavy-duty couch locking strains and whipping out the lighter, more summery alternatives.

What to look for when searching for the best summer strains

One person's idea of the perfect strains of weed for summer might be slightly different than the next, but what you need to look for is something that can provide an invigorating boost and lift your spirits, so that you’ll have both the attitude and motivation to complete everything that you have planned for the summer. In some cases, it’s the terpenes that heavily influence this effect, but the best way to know for sure is to look up consumer reviews.

Indica vs Sativa

Some people might assume that Sativa strains would be the best option for the summertime as they are typically known to invoke gentler sensations and effects. However, that isn’t usually the case. There are just as many strains of weed from all three categories, including Sativa, Indica, and Hybrids, that are good for staying active in the hot weather, and here we're going to show you a little bit of each.
