As cannabis becomes more and more accepted and popular, those who consume it (that’s us!) look to more than just a quick high with their weed. Yes, we’re “cannasseurs” if you will – the stoneyest (just roll with it) of stoners that look for things like terpenes, flavonoids, effects, and specific strains for specific pains (and other needs). In fact, several studies have linked cannabis to creativity amongst other things, and these are the reasons why it is so popular with us. 

Here are some other reasons why we look for certain strains.

What “Cannasseurs” Look for in Strains

There are many reasons we turn to the wonderful weed, other than just getting stoned. Yes, we cringe when we hear people say, “Who cares what strain it is? It gets you high, doesn’t it?” or, “Oh, we just mix them all together.” EGADS!

Don’t they know that weed has so many other properties? If you’re looking for connoisseur strains, you’re looking for healing properties, anxiety-reducing properties, and much more. Here are some typical reasons us “cannasseurs” are looking for specific strains – either to promote, help with, or relieve certain issues:

• Nausea
• Insomnia
• Creativity
• Energy
• Anxiety/PTSD
• Pain (Relief)
• Productivity
• Sleep
• Stress
