If you’re even a little socially anxious, parties and gatherings can feel intimidating. Read on for four cannabis strains to help you enjoy a more social summer (what’s left of it!).
The end of July and early August are peak summer: The days are long and lazy (even if you’re at work—you’re probably taking longer lunches and extra coffee breaks) and your social calendar is probably jam-packed. After so many pandemic-tinged summers, it feels good to socialize freely again. But if you’re a little socially anxious, walking into a gathering might feel a bit intimidating. Fear not—from backyard barbecues to afternoons at the beach, we’ve got four cannabis strains to help you enjoy the high season. (Pun intended, obviously.)
Cannabis Strains to Help You Enjoy a More Social Summer
Keep scrolling for four strains we love for social settings, but if you’re looking for information about other strains, check out our strains page. We’ve got the goods on more than 100 different strains, for whatever experience you’re after.
Super Lemon Haze
The child of Lemon Skunk and Super Silver Haze, Super Lemon Haze is an award-winning triumph that holds a high level of terpenes and a super citrusy aroma. The buds are elongated and sticky, with a THC content of between 15 and 25 percent. It’s well-known to have a stimulating cerebral effect with an incredibly tangy and lemony taste. The effects are uniquely energetic and lively.
Dirty Girl
Dirty Girl is a tropical delight, swimming in citrus flavor. Dirty Girl is from British Columbia and is a cross of Cinderella 99 and Arcata Lemon Wreck. Its THC content hovers around 25 percent and is known to give an energizing and smooth buzz. The bud has yellowish hairs and a sticky terpene profile reminiscent of Pine Sol (in a good way), or a walk in the woods. Smoking Dirty Girl will lead to feeling focused, uplifted and motivated enough to tackle to-do lists. It may also leave you feeling more talkative, which is great social activities.
CandyLand
Who doesn’t love a good game of Candyland? This strain is known for its playful and energizing effects. Candyland is a cross between Granddaddy Purple and Platinum Girl Scout Cookies. It’s a sativa-dominant hybrid with a THC content that can go as high as 29 percent. It’s both earthy and sweet, with a dense trichome coverage that smells of berry and pine. Candyland is a strain known for getting people out of their shell as it’s uplifting, happy and a good combination of relaxation and stimulation.
Doug’s Varin
Doug’s Varin is one of the few strains you can find with a reliably high THCV content. The strain boasts an unprecedented 6:7 THC to THCV ratio. It provides a clear-headed and focused high with bursts of energy that is well-known for mental stimulation. With an earthy, pine aroma with sweet citrus notes, there are hints of lemon and wood. This is a great choice for a long walk out in nature or if you need to focus on a new project.
