As the leaves turn golden and the air takes on that familiar crispness, it’s the perfect time to explore the best fall strains in Maine. At JAR Cannabis, our mission is simple: Made in Maine, Crafted for You. Each season we highlight strains that fit the moment, and autumn is all about crisp hikes, cozy firesides, and evenings spent with friends.
This year’s lineup of fall strains blends seasonal flavors with effects that match Maine’s autumn lifestyle. From uplifting sativas that pair with foliage hikes to hybrids that shine around the campfire, here are the strains our staff loves most.
Silver Kush Is a sativa-dominant cross of Silver Bubble and OG #18, and its pine and lemon notes are the perfect match for Maine’s crisp autumn air. The clear-headed, uplifting high provides energy for daytime adventures like foliage hikes, apple picking, or outdoor photography, while larger doses settle into an indica-like calm ideal for cozying up with a movie when the nights turn chilly.
“My favorite fall strain is Silver Kush. The sweet piney flavor and kush notes are perfect for a crisp fall day. The effects are uplifting for the first few puffs which pair great when I’m out in the woods walking my pup. Absolutely my favorite fall ritual given the foliage in Maine. I also enjoy it in the evening as Silver Kush can act like an indica in larger doses given its potency. Perfect for a movie or winding down after a long day.”
— Bob, Store Manager Berwick
Winter Sunset A frosty hybrid created by crossing Chimera with Sugar Cane, is one of the most flavorful fall strains around. Its sweet blueberry and grape notes are layered with hints of pastries, cream, and butter like a seasonal dessert enjoyed fireside. The calm, creative high makes it a go-to for reading by the fire, listening to music, or camping under the stars on crisp nights.
“I find myself reaching for Winter Sunset when I’m outside having a campfire, reading my book.”
— Catherine, Budtender Windham
“Winter Sunset still gives you the sweetness of summer along with the cool taste of fall. Enjoy while it’s here!”
— Charles, Budtender Berwick
MAC 1: Adventure and Everyday RitualsMAC 1 Also known as Miracle Alien Cookies, is famous for its dense trichome-coated buds and spicy citrus diesel flavor. This strain balances a euphoric lift with a relaxing body high, making it versatile for autumn hikes, afternoons in the garden, or watching sports on a Sunday afternoon. Among our fall strains, MAC 1 stands out for both adventure and downtime.
“My fave strain is MAC 1. My fall ritual is hiking with my dog Eddy to the local waterfall, playing some music, and relaxing.”
— Chase, Budtender Carrabassett Valley
“MAC 1 is my go-to for watching sports and tending to the garden once the cooler weather sets in.”
— Jason, Budtender Carrabassett Valley
For evenings when the days grow short, Deep Space (limited release) is one of the best fall strains to help you unwind. A cosmic hybrid of Oreoz x Zero Gravity, it blends sweet cookie richness with diesel funk for a bold autumn flavor. The high starts with a burst of laughter and euphoria before melting into deep body calm—ideal for Halloween movie marathons, blanket cocoons, and slow evenings at home.
“As soon as the air gets cool and crispy, I go for warm and cozy. But that also means it gets darker earlier, which makes me a little sad. So, I really like Deep Space for fall. It lifts my spirits during the day, but also melts away all my tension, making it easier to fully enjoy those evenings of cozy blanket cocoons and Halloween movies without being immediately put to sleep.”
— Christina, Budtender South Portland and Portland
Devil Driver Is an upbeat sativa created by crossing Melonade with Sundae Driver, and it’s tailor-made for fall adventures. Its citrus and tropical fruit punch flavors feel refreshing and bright against Maine’s brisk air, while the motivating high provides the boost you need for apple picking, trail hikes, or tackling seasonal chores. It’s the strain that keeps energy high and spirits lifted, even as the days grow shorter.
“My favorite strain this time of year is Devil Driver. I love to go apple picking at Five Fields Farm in Bridgton and then for a hike at Bald Pate Mountain. Devil Driver keeps me motivated and is a nice sweet treat on the trail!”
— Elisabeth, Budtender Windham
