Marijuana can make everything better if you know what strain, dose, and setting to choose. A lot of consumers just love playing video games or watching some great movies after they roll up a joint or bake some edibles. Why? Because cannabis can make good moments excellent. The horrors are scarier, the comedies are funnier, and melodramas are more romantic. Indie films are becoming more creative, and documentaries are easier-to-understand. But which of the hundreds strains to choose to turn watching a movie into the euphoric experience? Well, let us find out.
What Effects a Good Strain for Watching Movies Should Produce?
This question is very difficult to answer. The thing is it depends on plenty of factors and circumstances. To narrow the search, just ask yourself the following questions:
Do I want to watch a drama, comedy, thriller, etc.?
Do I want to watch it alone or with my friends?
When do I want to watch it, in the middle of the day or maybe in the evening?

There are tons of great strains for watching a movie. You can choose an energetic one, the laugh-inducing machine, a strain that will make you creative and focused, and so on.

Blue Diesel has famous parents. They are still popular Blueberry and NYC Diesel gave birth to this hybrid, and their offspring is even better than parents, at least when it comes to movies.

Moreover, it is considered medical rather than recreational strain because it helps people with bipolar, patients suffering from pain or insomnia, as well as consumers who want to get rid of stress.
