In honour of the new year and almost making it through winter 2022, we thought it would be exciting to go over our recommendations for strains to smoke during each season coming up this year. These strains will compliment the tastes, colours and vibes of each season in hopes it helps users feel more connected to nature and the natural cycles in our world. We hope this article helps you to look forward to the rest of the year and maybe gives a new perspective on a season that’s not exactly your favourite!

Winter

If you’ve never experienced seasonal depression, consider yourself lucky! It’s true name, seasonal affective disorder (or SAD), is a legitimate depressive disorder that affects people generally at the same time each year, most commonly throughout the fall and winter months. Although cannabis is not the cure to this unfortunate issue, it can help lift you out of your SAD state enough to get some things done. 

• Maui Wowie – let yourself float away to the island fantasy of your dreams with this optimism-breeding sativa. This strain has a tropical flavour and scent profile that transports you to Hawaii for free and is sure to cure any winter blues. This high will have you in a great mood but also give you an increased focus.
• Jack Frost – this is the perfect strain to enhance a cozy day around the house. Jack Frost is a sativa dominant hybrid with a very smooth, clean smoke that makes it easy on the lungs and pleasurable in the mouth. The flavour profile feels like it was made for winter with notes of wood, pine and earth.

Spring

The season of new beginnings and rebirth – spring is a time when people are starting to get their bearings back after winter and don’t mind the rain as much knowing it’s helping to foster the flowers on their way. Spring is a beautiful time for growth, wearing lots of colour and cleaning out to prepare for summer.

• Green Crack – this is a perfect springtime strain as it is best known for its amazing ability to grant energy and focus. If you’re wanting to do some spring cleaning or maybe have exams coming up, this strain could help give you the boost of focus you need. Green Crack is an indica dominant strain and packs a punch, but still carries a lovely cerebral effect, making it the perfect strain for getting things done at home!
• Mob Boss – just one hit of this powerful sativa dominant and you’ll be engulfed in a good time. If you’re hoping to be outside more this year as the weather gets better, this may be the perfect strain for your next outdoor adventure – it fires up energy levels, inspires new ideas and even eases muscle tension. Mob boss has a sweet floral aroma making it increasingly appropriate to enjoy in the springtime.

Summer

Summer is the perfect time to kick back by the pool with a cold refreshing drink and joint in hand. Whether you’re looking for a CBD dominant strain to help you beat the heat or a high percentage THC strain to puff on through the night with friends, summer is one of the best times to indulge in cannabis. 

• Cherry AK – Summer marks peak cherry season, and the popular cherry AK strain is ripe for the picking as well. With a few puffs of this sativa dominant hybrid, its sweet yet piney flavour will transport you straight to a cherry orchard on a lovely summer day. The uplifting effects will give your mind a creative push and your body a euphoric high.
• Mimosa – like the name suggests, this strain has a sweet grapefruit, orange taste making it the perfect strain to enjoy in the summertime. Mimosa is a sativa dominant hybrid with bright and happy daytime effects that are perfect for chasing sleep away and giving you a positive mood as you take on your day.

Autumn

Fall is full of fluorescent colours, falling leaves and windy days. Many people will mourn the ending of summer but there truly is more to be happy about than sad – fall is harvest season and for most stoners that’s an exciting time! Combine that with great holidays, yummy food and drinks and fall has all the right ingredients to make a great season. 

• Maple Leaf Indica – some things scream “fall” as soon as they hit your tongue and to us, nothing screams fall in Canada more than maple syrup! Maple leaf indica is a strain that’ll deliver the fall vibes you’re craving. Complete with a spicy and sweet flavour profile, you can count on this strain to provide both boosted energy and soothing effects.
• Caramelo – known as a heavy hitter around the world, Caramelo can be both calming and productivity-boosting to the user –  we think puffing on this strain when the weather gets inevitably more dreary and you’re stuck inside feeling bored, is the best way to take advantage of the effects.
