Which Strain Should You Choose?

For daytime

Lamb's Bread

Its sativa profile is commonly described as energetic, uplifting and creative, making it the clearer fit when you still want to do things after you light up.

For winding down

Northern Lights

Northern Lights is the stronger match when you want a slower, heavier, more relaxing experience and the couch has started looking unusually persuasive.

For creative sessions

Lamb's Bread

Lamb's Bread is regularly associated with mental energy, focus and creativity rather than the body-forward calm that defines Northern Lights.

For a classic indica

Northern Lights

If what you want is one of the best-known old-school indica names, this isn't much of a contest. Northern Lights is the archetype.

For herbal flavor

Lamb's Bread

For nostalgia

It's a Tie

Jamaican sativa legend on one side, 1980s indica royalty on the other. Different decades, equally strong old-school credentials.
