Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and there’s no better way to celebrate the incoming holiday season than doing what we do best—smoking some good old fashioned ganja. Obviously, for a holiday like Thanksgiving, you’re going to want to find strains that, well, give you an intense case of the munchies. This is especially true for those who frequently stumble to the dinner table hungover, or still a little drunk, after some intense partying on Thanksgiving Eve. Luckily, we were able to find the best Thanksgiving strains for those looking to amplify their hunger to new levels this year.

9. Northern Lights

The classic indica strain Northern Lights certainly packs a punch. The acquired high will make its users ultra-relaxed for the holiday, however, be warned—it’s known to put its users in a deep sleep after smoking. So if you’re already prone to falling asleep after eating some Thanksgiving turkey, there’s almost no chance you’re going to stay awake if you pregame with this strain. But is it really Thanksgiving without the food-coma, anyways?
