Best uplifting weed strains

Uplifting effects in cannabis are among the most common. Most recreational smokers turn to weed for its ability to boost mood. It’s believed that Sativas have stronger uplifting properties, while hybrids have a two-stage effect: they start with an initial surge in good mood (with a desire to socialize, talk, and laugh) and end up in couch-lock. Indicas are less likely to be uplifting, but a few of them do offer Sativa-like effects, and this comes in handy if you want to grow a short-statured and fast-flowering plant but get an uplifting smoke nonetheless. It’s hard to say what chemicals make cannabis upliting. It’s certainly not just THC but also lesser cannabinoids, such as THCV, plus terpenes like limonene and pinene, that provide cerebral stimulation and can even help with depression. Below, we feature many uplifting strains that will help you take care of mood swings and create a positive outlook on life.
