It's 2 a.m., you're wide awake and have to be at work in less than six hours. What're you going to do? Booze or sleep medication will leave you a zombie throughout most of the workday. Counting sheep does nothing. A good smoke, on the other hand, will give you a restful slumber and still let you wake up sober and clear-headed in the morning.

 

So, choosing weed as a sleep aid is a no-brainer, another question is, what strain should you choose? That's more complicated, but the general rule is to steer clear of Sativas, or you can simply pick your favorite from these five heavy-hitting Indica autoflower strains.

Sometimes, it's best to stick with the classics. West Coast OG Auto is Fast Buds’ autoflowering version of the beloved and legendary OG Kush. The strain is known for inducing euphoria, relaxation, and making smokers laugh their asses off.

Our autoflowering take on the legendary Medicine Man, aka White Rhino, will knock you out. Originally a popular remedy for chronic pain and chemotherapy-related nausea, these genetics have proven themselves over decades of use by insomniacs in California and elsewhere.

Like Rhino Ryder, Afghan Kush Auto is an autoflowering version of another curative cannabis classic. The legendary Hindu Kush has served as the genetic backbone of dozens of famous and fashionable strains, but Fast Buds went back to the fundamentals and crafted an autoflowering version of the original.

Strawberry Pie Auto is an Indica-dominant eyecandy of a strain that will help you relax and put the day's worries out of your mind. This smoke induces perfect calm, and the accompanying couch-lock makes your eyelids heavy, while the mild Sativa influence sends you smoothly sailing into dreamland.

Banana Purple Punch Auto is what you want when you're tired after a long day of work and all you need is a good night's rest to recharge your batteries. Our Banana Purple Punch Auto is equally suited for watching stoner comedies in the evening or getting some quality zzs's before a hard day of work.

It's not a one-punch smoke, but it'll slide you slowly and peacefully into a good night's sleep. As one of Fast Buds' master growers put it, "Just smoked it for the first time today and felt focused but laid back. I would say it's mostly a nighttime smoke. Definitely at the higher end of the THC average…"
