Say Hello To 2025 With These 5 Strains

2024 has been a journey.

Global conflicts, national elections, and international tensions caught our attention. In the weed world, the DEA finally decided to review cannabis scheduling for the first time in 50 years (it’s about time).

Will our favorite plant be removed as a Schedule I controlled substance in 2025? We can only hope. Until then, Canadians and legalized states are leading by example while showcasing the benefits of legalization not just for society but for the economy. 

If you reside in a weed-friendly region, we’ll help you start your year with a bang. Say hello to 2025 with the 5 strains below. 

You don’t have to drink champagne on New Year’s Eve. Why not smoke it? Pink Champagne is a hybrid strain with 22% THC, crossing popular strains like Grandaddy Purple and Cherry Pie.

It’s a relatively potent strain, especially for beginners. The grape and berry flavors make it a pleasure to smoke, and it’s a great socializer to keep your mood lifted while you’re out and about.

Hoping to get lucky in 2025? Purple Panty Dropper can lend a helping hand. This potent strain sits at 22% THC and is a three-way cross between Purple Haze, Oregon Grape, and Matanuskan Mist.

This strain is praised for its deep purple tones and superb trichomes, not to mention its alleged aphrodisiac effects. Purple Panty Dropper is an Indica-dominant hybrid that unleashes perfect amounts of bodily relaxation and cerebral stimulation for steamy between-the-sheets pleasure.

8 Ball Kush is another top-tier choice this year. It’s a pure Indica strain, so be prepared to liftoff into a euphoric high and plunk down on a comfy couch.

This strain sits at 22% THC and comes from an Afghani landrace strain. The earthy and spicy aroma will leave your mouth watering for a taste, and the overall flavor profile offers a woody, earthy sensation on the palette.

Smoke it for a good time, whether at a gathering or a party for one.

What would New Year’s be without confetti? Rather than bursting the confetti all over the room, inhale some Confetti Cake to celebrate 2025. This Indica-dominant hybrid features 21% THC and crosses Cherry Pie and Secret Cookies.

Confetti Cake is an upbeat strain, even though it’s more on the Indica end of the spectrum. It’s great for mood elevation, focus, and relieving stress. Whether you’re deep into a conversation or kicking back solo, Confetti Cake is here to help.

Why not start your new year with some Pancakes? Instead of whipping them up in the kitchen, roll a joint with this sweet strain to start your day bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

Pancakes is a hybrid strain with a whopping 27% THC, and its flavor profile dances on the tongue with notes of butter and berries. The relaxing high paired with the mood-lifting effects is an excellent way to leap into 2025.
