Top 10 Cannabis Sativa Strains Of 2020
Although a lot of people tend to gravitate towards strong indica strains, there are a lot of sativas that are equally impressive! Here are the top 10 sativa strains of 2020.
It’s a common misconception that sativas aren’t as potent as indicas. On the contrary, numerous sativa strains contain between 20–30% THC, just like top-shelf indicas. This way, you get all the high, without the drowsy, couch-lock feeling you might get from an indica. Fancy a nice hike or looking to engage in a creative endeavour? A sativa strain is one you might prefer!
To help you find the right specimen, we’ve put together a list of the top 10 sativa strains of 2020. Enjoy!
1. GREEN CRACK PUNCH
Green Crack Punch is the offspring of two extremely popular strains: the sativa-dominant Green Crack, and Purple Punch, a potent indica-leaning strain. This makes for a great high—energetic, uplifting, and creative at the start, then finishing off with a nice lazy feeling. It’s also a great strain to use for muscle aches. When cultivated in ideal conditions, preferably indoors, growers can yield up to 500g/m² of flowers with roughly 20% THC.
2. HAZE BERRY
Our Haze Berry is a classic marijuana strain that combines the taste of Blueberry with the cerebral high of Haze. The cured buds have a sweet flavour, and the energising high is ideal for those who have goals to accomplish during the day. Haze Berry offers excellent yields, and its sativa growing characteristics make for huge plants that fill out indoor and outdoor gardens nicely.
3. SHINING SILVER HAZE
Haze is one of the most sought-after sativa strains, and our Shining Silver Haze delivers top-quality genetics that have been stabilised for years. With its lineage tracing back to Skunk, Northern Lights, and Haze, Shining Silver Haze is suited to indoor or outdoor marijuana gardens. The plant loves full sun outdoors, and indoor growers can expect yields of up to 450g/m². Seasoned smokers love the taste and instant high of Shining Silver Haze.
4. MOTHER GORILLA
Mother Gorilla is the latest addition to our hybrid lineup. This cross between GG #4 and Reina Madre is a 70% sativa and 30% indica blend. The plant scores with a super-potent THC content of 25%, making Mother Gorilla an ideal candidate for seasoned stoners. Mother Gorilla is also the perfect choice for growers seeking a fast-maturing plant, as she takes only 8 weeks to bloom—and looks good while doing it!
5. AMNESIA MAC GANJA (AMG)
This strain is a four-time cup winner known for leaving smokers happy and at peace. A fierce combo of the infamous Amnesia and Ganja Mac Haze, it’s a great strain for anyone needing a nice pick-me-up without the heaviness. AMG offers about 22% THC and has a lovely spicy, earthy, herbal flavour. It’s one of the most popular strains in Dutch coffeeshops, and if you try it, you’ll instantly see why.
6. SOUR DIESEL
Sour Diesel is known by experienced smokers around the world for its unique flavour profile and buzzing high. With roots on both the East Coast and West Coast of the US, our Sour Diesel strain is suited to indoor and outdoor growers alike. The plant's sativa characteristics are easily seen in its huge structure and large branches teeming with resinous buds after 10 weeks of flowering. Get ready for an uplifting effect beloved by daytime smokers.
7. LEMON SHINING SILVER HAZE
Similar to Shining Silver Haze, this strain adds Lemon Skunk to the mix to shake things up. Like other strains dominant in the limonene terpene, this strain has a sweet, citrusy taste that people also describe as dank and skunky. The effects of Lemon Shining Silver Haze are energetic and euphoric, even bordering on psychedelic. Good yields at the end of a 9-week flowering phase sweeten the deal.
8. EL PATRON
El Patron is a Highlife Cup-winning strain made by crossing AMG with Shiva. With its striking head buzz and body high, El Patron offers the best of both worlds. Due to its interesting blend of terpenes, El Patron is a favourite among cannabis chefs who specialise in making sweet edibles. It’s also very easy to grow and performs well indoors, outdoors, or in a greenhouse. El Patron produces medium yields of 22% THC bud.
9. HULKBERRY
HulkBerry is a smashing hit in Dutch coffeeshops and American dispensaries alike. This combination of Strawberry Diesel and OG Kush boasts a massive 27% THC content. Toking only a little of this monster delivers a long-lasting high like no other. Seriously, this popular sativa strain is not just flavourful—with delicious hints of strawberry and citrus—it will blow your mind with its powerful cerebral high too. Despite such huge potency, HulkBerry is not a couch-locker, unless you smoke a whole bunch of her.
10. SHOGUN
This top sativa strain shares genetics with Amnesia Haze and Royal Gorilla. Shogun was bred for potency and typically exhibits THC levels of up to 25%. Although Shogun is an uplifting sativa, it’s also great for easing the body due to its strong physical high. It’s also very easy to grow and does well indoors and outdoors in various climate zones. Shogun’s aroma blends notes of earth and pine for a revitalising sensory experience.
