Kinda curious because I want to target certain effects like energy and focus and avoid anything that would couch-lock me.

You’ll in general react to different strains differently. I find that recommendations generally steer me in the right direction, but it’s not the word of god.

Sativas tend towards more energy and brighter highs, but can just as easily have you in the couch.

Indicas tend the opposite, being more mellow.

However, there’s no pure strains of anything anymore, so they’re more trends rather than concrete fact.

Try a bunch of different ones and find something you like. Just like alcohol, you won’t like everything, so try something else.

Personally I prefer indica dominant strains even for energy, as sativas tend to trend towards paranoia for me specifically
