Best TGA strain for anti-anxiety and insomnia?

Hey folks,

Any recommendations? I'm going to be growing some Space Dawg for anti-anxiety and body pain, but was looking for a recommendation for something that will calm the mind when someone is super-anxious and stressed and either can't fall asleep or does but wakes up an hour or two later with a racing mind and then can't go back to sleep.

Ideally, this would help someone get to sleep and then let them stay asleep.

Thanks in advance!

Anything leaning towards the indica side is gonna be what your looking for, the spacedawg is probably gonna be more than enough from what I hear... I'm growing it for the exact same reason actually but anything thats 30/70 (sativa/indica) or more in the direction of indica is probably gonna do what your asking..... The descriptions on the TGA website really couldnt be anymore accurate about the strains and what they do for you....

Thanks Whitey78,

I seem to remember the old TGA web site had a comment about one of the strains and insomnia, but it's gone from the redesign. I have seeds for Space Dawg, Plushberry and Qush -- over time I'll be growing them all, but if someone had a particularly strong recommendation toward one of them, I would help me make the decision of what to grow next.

Personally, I've never really smoked indica-dom strains so this is new territory for me.

I'd say either the qush or spacedawg will do you right honestly.... I really dont know too much about the plushberry.... I'm running ace of spades which is similar to plushberry in respect to them sharing a mother (black cherry soda) but I dont have to much experience with the aos either, I havent finished the run yet so I cant say how the smoke is gonna be..... anything kush is gonna be indica-ish so you'll be good and spacedawg is supposed to be some heavy shit according to the description but its another one I'm growing now so I dont know yet....

Also, know that each strain puts out different phenotypes so you'll get some variety out of each strain..... They all dont come out perfectly 50/50 from each parent so you can pick the one that works for you as well as letting the plants flower a bit longer letting the resin heads turn more amber for a more stony/couchlock high....

Thanks again for your input! I know I'm going to have to grow them all out and try them because everyone reacts a little differently, but I'll go with either Space Dawg or Qush unless someone weighs in with a better recommendation.

i havent tried any tga but jillybean looks so tasty and wonderful.. i always get the best high from a kush though so maybe try qush

Thanks Nizza, but I'm looking for a specific anti-anxiety, anti-insomnia effect and am hoping someone can speak directly to that need.

i also want a good anti-anxiety/anti-insomnia, in fact im just a few days away from harvesting 7 space dawgs i grew from seed. i already have plushberry and i plan to replace it in my garden with my keeper space dawg. as far as plushberry goes, the coloration is cool and it smells nice but i didn't find any phenos with much potency in my 10 pack.

Thanks, Kane! Good to know that Plushberry might be a good smoke, but not the medicine I'm looking for on the next run. Please report on your Space Dawg when you're done with curing. That will be just about the time I'm going to go Space Dawg or Qush. I have room for two plants, so I could do one of each, but I like the best shot at an even canopy, and mixing strains can be a problem.

If you can get your hands on some Cheesequake it will do the job as far as the insomnia goes. It's pretty heavy. Not sure about the anti-anxiety benefit of it though.

Space Dawg is the shit for anti-anxiety, and is my go to herb right now.....If you want a knock-out, grab some Qrazytrain and select a Querkle dom. pheno.....good luck bro, and let me know how it goes for you, as anxiety is my biggest problem to date also....nugs

I am dealing with back pain, anxiety and insomnia. I wrote down Space Dawg on my "wish list".

i vote for the space dawg as well. those are two of my biggest ailments so I know how important finding a proper medication is. after growing and smoking it, space dawg is one of my favorites. however i also use vortex for anti anxiety/anti depression. it's a very motivating, creative, set your mind right type of high. that's how these two strains affect me at least.

Thanks Jahlove! Would you say you use Vortex more during the day and Space Dawg at night? Thanks!
