Many people turn to cannabis to help with sleep issues, but not all strains are equally effective for this purpose. Understanding which strains work best for sleep is key.

Indica-dominant strains are generally recommended for sleep due to their relaxing and sedating effects. Strains high in myrcene, a terpene known for its sedative properties, are particularly effective.

The timing of consumption is also important. Taking cannabis too close to bedtime might interfere with REM sleep, while consuming it 1-2 hours before bed can help with falling asleep.

Remember that individual responses to cannabis vary, so it may take some experimentation to find the right strain and dosage for your sleep needs.
