Introverts and extroverts draw their energy from different places: While introverts are energized by solitary pursuits, extroverts recharge by spending time in the company of others.
Extroverts tend to be talkative and outgoing. They enjoy experiences that maximize interpersonal interaction, and they are generally willing to seek out these experiences. Conversely, spending time alone may cause an extrovert to feel bored, anxious, or a little bit blue.
For extroverted cannabis consumers, the best strains will augment social occasions, keeping conversations kindled for hours. The following are a few of our top picks.
Sour Diesel
Widely popular (and perfect for sharing), Sour Diesel keeps consumers happy and upbeat. Though its mental effects have been described as dreamy, this energetic strain definitely won’t put you to sleep—rather, it’ll keep the party going all night long.
“Great for socializing, parties, skateboarding and excellent for the blues.” —GhostOfJack

As Leafly’s Strain of the Year in 2018, Gelato’s popularity is currently soaring: Last year it was the highest-trafficked strain page on Leafly. It’s a great variety to have on hand for an impromptu smoke sesh because others will be excited to sit down and sample it with you.
