Are you interested in smoking Delta-8 THC? How do you choose which strain is right for you? Or are you looking to try a new D8 strain?
Delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-8 THC) is a psychoactive substance found in the cannabis plant. It’s one of over 100 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant.
D8 has gained a lot of popularity because of its similarity to the most well-known cannabinoid: Delta-9 THC. D9 is psychoactive and the reason marijuana has been so popular across the globe for so long.
When it comes to smokable Delta-8 pre-rolled joints you have a few options between multiple strains. In this article, you will learn all about Delta-8 pre-rolls and which ones might be for you.
Strain: Indica Pre-Rolls
If you’re generally familiar with cannabis you already know that indica strains are thought of as relaxing while sativa strains are thought of as uplifting. That’s generally accurate for Delta-8 too.
Cannabis indica is a species of cannabis plant that grows small and bushy with dark green leaves. It’s for those who want to calm down and chill out.
Strain: Sativa Pre-Rolls
Cannabis sativa is favored by those who want to enjoy their psychoactive buzz as well as have energy. If you want to melt into the couch or go to bed then don’t pick this one.
Strain: Hybrid Pre-Rolls
Hybrid is a cross between indica and sativa that results in a balance of energizing and relaxing. That works because neither is too strong and the effects are a subtle complement to each other.
