5 types of marijuana that will help you hit Daylight Saving Time

Studies show that the one-hour time difference imposed on us by Daylight Saving Time can trigger underlying health issues and cause excessive fatigue afterwards. The following strains have been selected to help you either get to bed early the night before or clear your head the following days.

This heavy indica, praised for its high resin production and the body high it provides, is a great strain that will make you sleepy, very sleepy. The almost hypnotic effect is also great for relieving aches and pains that can arise at the end of the day, thus making it easier to catch a few Zs as well. Another benefit is its relaxing properties. Pure Afghani strains are often used to combat severe anxiety, so you don’t need to stress about the approaching summertime.

A perfect blend of Granddaddy Purple and OG Kush, this euphoric yet sleepy time strain will have you counting sheep so dreamily that falling asleep shouldn’t be a problem. Gentle and sweet on the palate, this high THC strain will add a bit of sparkle to your nap and you should wake up refreshed after the hour difference. Also a very resinous strain, a little goes a long way.

Sativa dominant and quite high in THC, this strain promotes a clear head and sharpness to get things going and move on with the day. If you’re feeling groggy from the night before, maybe you ate a strong edible or smoked something longer than expected before hitting the hay in hopes of recharging, this is one that will clear the haze, regardless from his namesake. An uplifting, happy high that should clear noggin when needed.

Sometimes an indica-dominant hybrid still does the trick to get out of a funk, especially in the case of this 40% sativa. When the 40% comes from the following strain, Durban Poison, she works magic with her OG indica base, calming and clearing the mind at the same time. Perfect for after-work recharging or while exploring creative endeavors, this sweet popular strain won’t leave you couch-locked unless you really go inside. Enjoy the taste, the lightness of being and above all the relaxed energy it offers.

Although you’ll likely choke, during the summertime you should be nothing but thankful for this pure sativa from South Africa. Perhaps the most important strain listed for fighting fatigue and really getting you going, especially if you’re picking up the house, pulling it together for a party, or even needing to get some work done (although driving is never recommended, to operate machines or the like for each variety). With the amount of resin Durban Poison produces, there’s a good chance your local pharmacy offers a concentrate version that will get you seriously buzzing.
