Top Cannabis Strain For a Relaxing Labor Day Weekend

We're kicking off the Labor Day holiday weekend here in the United States. Labor Day officially marks the end of summer for many. And while the weather may remain hot for another month or two, depending on your location, Labor Day makes sense as a turning point. Summer vacations have come and gone, kids are headed back to school, and it's the final stretch before the end of the fiscal year.

But Labor Day actually has a long history in the United States. Celebrated on the first Monday of September, Labor Day is a federal holiday enacted to recognize the American labor movement and honor the contributions of the nation's workers to the country's establishment and continued growth.

Labor Day first gained prominence in the 1880s when established as an official state holiday in Oregon. Steadily adopted by more than 30 states over the next 10 years, the holiday was eventually signed into law by President Grover Cleveland in 1894.

Ultimately, the Labor Day holiday serves as a "day of rest" for American workers. So, why not enjoy it while imbibing a little cannabis? Sounds like a great plan to us here at Cannawayz.com. That's why we created a list of top cannabis strains for a relaxing Labor Day weekend!

Sour Cookies

A Sativa dominant hybrid, Sour Cookies is the product of a cross between GSC (formerly Girl Scout Cookies) and Sour Diesel strains boasting average THC levels ranging from 15% -17%. Like many Sativa strains, Sour Cookies is noted for its euphoric, uplifting effects. But only when consumed in small amounts. When consumed in larger quantities, the music is renowned for its "couch lock" impact that will keep you glued to your sofa as you while away your Labor Day downtime.

Candyland

Bred from a combination of Grandaddy Purple and Bay Platinum Cookies, Candyland is a Sativa dominant hybrid with an average THC level of 19%. Known for its sweet candy taste, Candyland offers an excellent middle ground between cheery euphoria and effortless relaxation. It can help keep you upbeat and engaged at your Labor Day barbeque while maintaining a chill, laidback vibe.

OG Kush

Likely a cross between Chemdawg and Hindu Kush, this Indica dominant hybrid became a household name (in the cannabis world anyway) in the mid-90s when Cypress rapper Hills B-Real name-checked OG Kush as his personal favorite. Highly potent, the strain averages 20% THC levels, but tests have revealed levels as high as 26%. The strain is most notable for helping you relax while remaining clear-headed and alert. Attributes that make it a great strain if you're aiming to chill but still have plans to attend a pool party, picnic, or other Labor Day event.

Italian Ice

An Indica dominant strain that combines Forbidden Fruit and Gelato 45, Italian Ice averages THC levels ranging from 15% to 18%. Notable for its delicious hints of citrus and cherry, the strain serves as both a relaxant and a mood elevator. It's excellent for low-key social gatherings, like a Labor Day dinner party or intimate hang with a small group of good friends.

Purple Punch

An Indica dominant hybrid, Purple Punch is a cross between Larry OG and Granddaddy Purple with an average THC level of 20%. Great tasting, with hints of grape candy, blueberry muffins, and tart Kool-Aid, the strain is an excellent sleep aid, perfect for winding down your Labor Day festivities. A few tokes will have you relaxed and drowsy as you drift off into a restful night's sleep.
