Zodiac Weed Strains: Leo Strains You’ll Love

Any stoner who follows the Zodiac knows that you don’t have to be a Leo to enjoy Leo season—especially if you’re a stoner.

The most attractive traits associated with this summer fire sign are creativity, warmth, sociability, and courage. In fact, of all the zodiac signs, lions are among the most charming.

Leo season also marks the peak of summer in the northern hemisphere, and frolicking around in warm weather almost always benefits from some cannabis. You could say it stands to reason that a curated list of strains with effects similar to those that define the Leo zodiac sign should be at the top of the stash can shopping list whenever the creativity and euphoria of a summer’s day are called for – at least until the Virgo season rolls around.

Whatever your Sun, Moon, or Ascendant sign, each of the seven strains listed has the potential to deliver pure Leo vibes, so embrace your inner fire sign and ignite.

afternoon treat

This banana, schrom, and tangie hybrid reportedly delivers a swooning euphoria and bright, creative focus. Consumers also report soft, relaxing energy that can quickly turn into couchlock, depending on the scene.

Afternoon Delight genetics can lend themselves well to uplifting qualities and calming mental attributes. For those who want to take advantage of the easy joy of Leo season, reach for this strain.

Expect a fruity, nutty exhale with a lingering pine aftertaste and a super pungent gassy aroma.

Confidential Cheese

Confidential Cheese is a balanced hybrid of LA Confidential and Exodus Cheese. It has measured sativa and indica genetics that can deliver a mood boost and a resilient body high that is stimulating and calming at the same time.

Leo is a particularly dynamic and social sign, and consumers report that this particular amalgamation of Confidential Cheese’s effects is great fuel for socialization. Expect a tart, sweet, creamy mouthfeel and a funky, deliciously lazy nose.

cracker

Firecracker is a rare hybrid that’s perfect for lion kings—or anyone who prefers an opulent, ultra-relaxing high.

Firecracker is a Wille D phenotype that can be effective in calming anxiety and restlessness without delivering an enormously intoxicating head high. Therapeutic users report this strain as a potent option for chronic pain, but be warned, too much too fast can lead to classic stoner paranoia. Drag slowly until you find your sweet spot.

Expect a tart, woody exhale and a fermented scent reminiscent of red wine.

Lodi Dodi

Another rare hybrid suited to Leo Season is Lodi Dodi, a sativa hybrid with seriously mysterious genetics. Considered a hybrid of GG#4 and Mt. Rainier, this strain is known for delivering potentially uplifting and energizing highs.

According to the zodiac, those born under the sign of Leo can be remarkably magnetic and creative, and Lodi Dodi reportedly delivers effects that speak directly to this Leo archetype: mood elevation, creative inspiration, and cerebral stimulation.

Expect the pungent taste of funky fruit with top notes of honey and lemon and a velvety, skunky exhale.

Rare gratitude

For those who relate more to the laid-back elements of the Leo sign — like clear confidence and laid-back demeanor — Rare Dankness could be the chilled strain to explore your calmer, Leo-like traits with.

Rare Dankness is the result of four generations of breeding, starting with a cross of the original Rare Dankness and Ghost OG, which was then double crossed with Triangle Kush. The resulting flower is said to be a calming hybrid that can deliver cashmere body highs, calming head highs, and deep restorative sleep.

Expect an earthy, peppery perfume and a delicate, berry-sweet extract.

velvet bud

Velvet Bud can be an energizing, euphoric strain bred from a cross between Dutch Treat and Blueberry. The genetics of this hybrid borrow the best from each parent strain, potentially delivering a blissful body high and a long-lasting head high that many report is a quiet confidence boost. For cannabis connoisseurs looking to indulge in the dynamic, fiery qualities of Leo season year-round, Velvet Bud is a good strain to stock up on.

Expect a floral, berry-sweet aroma and a correspondingly herbal-sweet extract.

Platinum Blue Dream

Platinum Blue Dream is a largely balanced hybrid of two extremely potent parent strains: Blueberry Kush and Haze. The resulting flower is a harmonious combination of effervescent energy and syrupy-sweet relaxation.

Users often report heavy, tingling body highs and calming head highs that are great for end-of-day use. Cannathusiasts looking for a lush effect rather than a lively high might consider this strain for their lion season stoner counterparts.

Expect a herbal, floral perfume and a spicy, fruity exhale.
