Welcome to our Hybrid Strain Finder. If you’re into marijuana at all, you’ll undoubtedly get into hybrid strains at some point. Below we explain what hybrid strains are, go into some of the best and strongest strains out there, and answer some FAQs.
What Is a Hybrid Strain?
The word “hybrid” refers to a mixture of two different prominent elements. In the case of hybrid marijuana strains, those two elements are sativa and indica cannabis plants.
Traditionally, sativa is associated with a more energetic, cerebral, “upper” sort of high, while indica is more associated with a warm, mellow, sleepy body high. However, in recent years this has been disproven. The answer is more complex, which is a good thing because that means there are far more options in any given hybrid plant than simply drawing from two types of parent plants.
A hybrid can pull a startling number of specific effects from each parent strain so that you can find a strain that gives you a head high with a body buzz but without the munchies, for example. This is all thanks to the complete profile of cannabinoids and terpenes in the plant matter.

What Are the Best Hybrid Strains?
The following are among the most killer hybrids out there today, though talented growers are constantly cultivating new ones:
Lemon Cookies
If you’re a touchy-feely type and are looking for a hybrid strain that will give you a hug, look no further than Lemon Cookies. This strain is both soothing and stimulating. As a cross between Girl Scout Cookies and Lemon Haze, it leans sativa yet delivers a mellow, sense-heightening high. It’s great for relaxing without getting sleepy.
The taste is dominated by citrus fruits, nutty and spicy cookies, and sweet herbs. With an average THC content between 21% and 28%, this is a great destresser and creativity booster.
Tangerine Dream
Sometimes we turn to hybrid strains not for a catnap but for a boost. Tangerine Dream is just such a strain. This bud is uplifting and thought-sharpening, giving you a gentle energy boost while simultaneously calming your thoughts. What more could you ask for? This hybrid combines parents G13, Neville’s Haze, and Afghan strains.
With a THC level between 20% and 25%, this citrus-heavy hybrid is also great for soothing pain. Its flavors also include earthy berries and sweet tropical fruits.
Scooby Snacks
Based on curb appeal alone, it’s no wonder Scooby Snacks is such a popular strain. This strain wants to do more than just charm you with its nostalgic name, though — it’s an uplifting, mood-improving experience that can sharpen your focus without leading to paranoia or anxiety. Even though it gives you energy, it also delivers a calming effect that’s great for focus.
The mouth-watering flavor of Scooby Snacks includes a light sugary sweetness, the earthy tang of pine trees, and a cooling, refreshing mint flavor. You might just find it’s your new favorite go-to for day-to-day weed that keeps you functional and boosts performance.
Cherry Diesel
If the name Cherry Diesel makes you think of cheap cherry air fresheners dangling in the cab of an 18-wheel big rig, let us redirect your instincts. Cherry and diesel actually go together beautifully to create a hybrid that is simultaneously relaxing and inspiring.
This uplifting bud is strangely delicious, with the flavors of sweet and sour cherries and classic diesel coming together. The THC level is just 15%, making it accessible to newcomers and popular among seasoned smokers. The strain is a fairly even balance between sativa and indica, giving you that calm energy that the best hybrids are capable of delivering.
Strongest Hybrid Strains
Not for the faint of heart, here are some of the stronger hybrids out there:
Animal Face
Oh, mama, here it is — Animal Face. This strain (which is sometimes labeled Animal Face #10) is rare and sativa-dominant and is widely known for its hard-hitting set of effects. With a THC level of 25%, this strain has similar effects to Lemon Skunk and is enjoyed for its energy-boosting charisma.
The scent of this bud is nutty and tasty, utterly unique, and great for use at various points throughout the day. Because this is a strong bud, it’s recommended that you start small and work your way up as you figure out your tolerance.
Ghost OG
True to its name, Ghost OG has a way of turning you into a ghost — be prepared to leave your body and take a journey. This potent, highly regarded strain of indica-dominant marijuana has won awards and become a popular choice among those looking to relax while also feeling uplifted.
A hybrid of OG Kush and an Afghani indica, this 70/30 indica/sativa hybrid has an average THC level between 19% and 24% and contains almost no CBD. Interestingly, even with these moderate THC levels, it hits fast and hard, delivering a powerful, stunning body high that relieves pain and tension.
This is immediately followed by sensations of euphoria and cerebral activity, which last until comedown (which will probably put you right to sleep).
Superglue
Looking for a strain that will glue you to your couch? Try the new miracle product Superglue, specially formulated to induce couchlock while delivering a powerful medicinal punch.
This 70/30 indica/sativa strain has between 18% and 28% THC and around 1.5% CBD. That means a body high that can soothe pain and calm your mind. And here’s a secret: take it in small doses, and you might actually feel focused, productive, and socially comfortable. Go overboard, and you’d better have a comfy couch to crash on.
