KillThePain

Q about killer strains. Which strains should I grow for seriously killing pain, killing stress, killing the need for opioid and sleeping pills. One to help you sleep and one to function during the day. Ideas? Or what should I be looking for in a strain apart from thc/cbd/cbn?

It would be good to pop in to your local dispensary and ask them the question too. But like the others have said there are plenty of high cbd strains out there to try. But indica heavy will be your best choice for sleep and pain although I find marijuana doesn't really cure our relief physical pains

Important to note that a lot of cbd strains are not pure cbd. A lot of cbd strains breeders are putting out are 50% thc and 50% cbd, so there still will be a psychoactive element to it along with the high level of medical effects. So that might be a good route if you still want that buzz we all enjoy with the added medicinal benefit. Now what strain does what to whom is complicated because our endocannabinoid system is going to be different person to person and thus different strains might effect people differently. This makes nailing down medicinal qualities difficult. This book has more in depth information. Cannabis Pharmacy: The Practical Guide to Medical Marijuana https://g.co/kgs/9akNF5 My completely anecdotal experience from california California dispensaries is that heavy indicas are a favorite amongst cancer patients in chemo as it helps sedate them more than a sativa would. Strains like diamond OG, Masters Mistress, and girl scout cookies are some examples. This article covers your question in more detail. https://www.marijuanadoctors.com/blog/top-medical-marijuana-strains/

Hi KillTheOain It is Really up to you do you just need pain relief or you want some high to. A lot off strains out there claiming pain relief attributes. I chosen some for you. For pain, it’s generally recommended to try strains with a balance of THC and CBD. 1-ACDC, a strain that is widely cherished for its heavy CBD content. ACDC helps many consumers find physical relief with little to no detectable euphoria, making this strain a great solution to pain when needing to stay sharp, focused, and productive. 2-Blackberry Kush is a heavy THC-dominant strain that wraps the mind in dreamy, blissful euphoria while lifting pain from the body. With the exhale of its sweet, berry flavors, it’s easy to sink into a new mindset—one that isn’t dominated by throbbing aches and pains. 3-THX dominant The White is a prolific hybrid best known for its thick coat of white crystal resin. Leafly reviewers praise The White for its pain-relieving qualities, and perhaps the reason for this is its rich terpene profile that typically boasts high levels of caryophyllene alongside a hearty cannabinoid content. 4- Balanced THC/CBD CBD Critical Mass delivers a one-two punch of THC and CBD to chase pain and inflammation out the door. For pain relief with only gentle euphoria, this is a strain you should surely keep in your rotation. 5-THC-dominant Descending from some of the earliest landraces of Afghanistan, Master Kush is a popular choice for pain with potency you can see in her heavy blanket of crystal trichomes. Master Kush not only wraps the body in soothing relief, it can also relax the mind from frustrations that naturally arise from pain. Good luck hope this helps.

hey it's not that easy to answer. I think it depends on everyone how something works. you should test yourself there. if i go on my own, i would go for noon, for example Recommend Dr Grinspoon from barneys farm (100% Sativa). for some indica in the evening, for example Kosher Kush from Amsterdam Genetic. I hope I could help you a little :-)
