Are you looking for something energising, cerebral, and motivating? Then you need to cultivate some sativa varieties in your grow room or garden. These strains feature a cocktail of terpenes that synergise with THC to create laser-like focus and concentration, making them perfect for wake-and-bake sessions and daytime blazing. But not all sativas are equal. To help you find the greatest, we’ve detailed our best sativa strains of 2023 below.
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. Mimosa

Mimosa will fire up your central nervous system and help you hone in on your goals for the day. These large and sticky flowers possess a THC content of 22% and a terpene profile that hits the tongue with notes of citrus and earth. Fire up these buds in the morning alongside a strong cup of coffee for a surge of motivation early in the day. Despite her sativa genetics, she maintains a small size throughout the entire growing cycle. Indoor plants top out at 80cm and yield around 400g/m², and outdoor plants grow to 100cm and pump out 550g/plant.
7. Wedding Crasher

These flowers are a sight to behold. They’re tall, thick, loaded with trichomes, and feature shades of dark green and purple. It almost feels like a shame to grind them up, but your regret will instantly fade into euphoria and contentment as soon as you blaze them. Wedding Crasher exerts a hard-hitting high that boosts alertness and creativity. Reach for these buds any time you need a pick-me-up. Fancy growing her indoors? Then expect a superb yield of 450–500g/m². Prefer cultivating outdoors? Prepare to harvest up to 600g/plant during late October.
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.
