Degelis Pilla, CFA CEO and Co-Founder

We ranked eight sleep gummies on what the label actually discloses: the dose per gummy, whether melatonin is in it, and real review volume. TribeTokes THC Gummies for Sleep ranks first as the only formula stacking a cannabinoid with the L-Tryptophan and B6 pathway. Charlotte’s Web is the CBN-only pick, cbdMD is the one with melatonin, and OLLY is the no-cannabis option. New to CBN? Start with our guide to CBD for sleep.

Every competitor fact on this page was verified directly on that brand’s own product page on November 1, 2026, and is re-checked every 90 days.

Quick Answer

The best gummies for sleep in 2026 are TribeTokes’ THC Sleep Gummies ($45), a melatonin-free formula that stacks 10mg THC and 20mg CBN with 250mg L-Tryptophan and 1mg B6 so three sleep pathways work at once instead of one. Want it without THC? The TribeTokes CBD Sleep version swaps in 10mg CBD. Every TribeTokes formula on this list is in our sleep gummies collection.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Melatonin: melatonin-free is the norm on this list. Only cbdMD’s Lights Out, OLLY and Natural Vitality add melatonin; the other five, including both TribeTokes picks, skip it.
  • CBN: shows up in six of the eight picks, anywhere from 8mg to 20mg per gummy. It’s the cannabinoid the sleep-gummy category has converged on.
  • Formula: TribeTokes is the only formula here pairing a cannabinoid with the L-Tryptophan plus B6 melatonin-precursor pathway, so it works three angles at once instead of one.
  • Price: the non-cannabinoid picks cost the least, at $13.99 to $15.82 a bottle; the cannabinoid picks run about $45 to $70, tracking roughly with dose.
  • Testing: every hemp-derived pick here tests under 0.3% Delta 9 THC by dry weight and publishes third-party lab results.

The 8 Best Gummies for Sleep, Ranked

We ranked these by what’s actually disclosed on the label, formulation strength, and real review volume, melatonin-free first unless noted. Prefer a vape or a tincture? Our best cannabis for sleep page ranks every format by customer reviews.

TribeTokes THC Gummies for Sleep

The best overall pick because it’s the only formula on this list working three sleep mechanisms in one gummy: 10mg THC for relaxation, 20mg CBN for sedation, and 250mg L-Tryptophan plus 1mg B6 for your body’s own melatonin pathway, with zero synthetic melatonin.

Why it’s #1: three sleep pathways at stated milligrams instead of one ingredient doing all the work, and every batch is third-party lab tested.

The honest gap: 95 reviews is a smaller base than the big names below, and the THC means it isn’t the pick if you’re drug tested.

TribeTokes CBD Sleep Gummies

Same four-ingredient stack as the THC version, minus the THC: 10mg CBD and 20mg CBN instead, so there’s no psychoactive effect and nothing to plan a drug test around.

What it does well: the L-Tryptophan and B6 melatonin-precursor pathway without cannabis intoxication.

Where it falls short: 48 reviews, and without THC some people will feel it as calm more than sleepy.

Pick it if: you’re drug tested or just don’t want a high. More THC-free options are in our CBD gummies for sleep collection. Shop CBD + CBN Gummies →

Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep CBN Gummies

Charlotte’s Web keeps it simple: 20mg of CBN by itself, no CBD, no THC, no melatonin.

The strong points: a single-ingredient formula with the review volume to back it up.

Worth knowing: the brand’s own product page says not to combine it with CBD, since that can blunt the sedating effect.

Go here if: you want CBN without a cannabinoid blend. View on charlottesweb.com →

Slumber Deep Zzzs Gummies

Slumber’s flagship pairs 25mg CBD, 8mg CBN, and 3mg THC per gummy for what the brand calls full-spectrum entourage support.

Why it made the list: it’s the brand’s best seller, and the brand cites its own sleep study on the product page.

The trade-off: 8mg of CBN is the lightest CBN dose on this list.

Best for: a low-THC blend with a bigger CBD dose. View on slumbercbn.com →

Cornbread Hemp CBD Sleep Gummies

Cornbread skips CBN entirely and leans on 25mg of full-spectrum CBD plus 1mg THC layered with valerian root, chamomile, and lavender extract, USDA organic certified.

The proof: the most-reviewed sleep gummy on this list by a wide margin.

The honest gap: no CBN, so it relies on botanicals for the sleepy side.

Good option if: you want a botanical sleep blend over a straight cannabinoid stack. View on cornbreadhemp.com →

cbdMD Delta 9 THC Lights Out Sleep Gummies

Most picks on this list skip melatonin on purpose. cbdMD’s Lights Out goes the other way, adding 5mg of melatonin on top of 50mg CBD, 20mg CBN, and 3mg THC, the heaviest cannabinoid dose on this list.

What stands out: the highest-potency option here.

Where it falls short: 5mg is the melatonin dose where some people report next-morning grogginess.

Pick it if: synthetic melatonin doesn’t bother you. View on cbdmd.com →

OLLY Sleep Gummies

No hemp, no cannabinoids at all: OLLY’s classic Sleep formula runs on melatonin, L-theanine, and a chamomile, passionflower, and lemon balm blend.

Why it’s here: it’s the cheapest pick on the list at $13.99.

The trade-off: melatonin is the main active, so it’s not for anyone avoiding it.

Reach for it if: you’d rather not use cannabis products for sleep at all, or can’t where you live. View on olly.com →

Natural Vitality CALM Sleep Gummies

No cannabinoids here either: CALM Sleep pairs 3mg of melatonin with 50mg of L-theanine and magnesium citrate per serving, from the brand behind CALM magnesium powder.

The strong points: magnesium and melatonin in one gummy, under $16.

Worth knowing: no cannabinoids, so it works on a different system than the top six.

Best for: anyone who already takes magnesium at night. View on naturalvitality.com →

How We Chose

We screened for sleep gummies with a disclosed cannabinoid or active-ingredient dose per gummy, not a vague “proprietary blend.” Every competitor fact here was verified directly on that brand’s own product page on November 1, 2026, and we left out anything we couldn’t confirm ourselves.

  • Disclosed dose: milligrams per gummy for every active ingredient.
  • Melatonin, checked: whether melatonin was actually in the formula versus just implied by the word “sleep” on the label, because that’s the biggest formulation split in this category right now.
  • Review volume: real reviews on the brand’s own site.
  • Our own rank: TribeTokes ranks first on a specific, checkable formulation fact: it’s the only pick here stacking a cannabinoid with the L-Tryptophan and B6 melatonin-precursor pathway instead of relying on one ingredient to do all the work.

How to Pick the Right One for You

Decide on melatonin first, then the cannabinoid, then the dose. Those three choices narrow eight picks to one or two.

  • Melatonin-free vs. melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone that helps regulate your circadian rhythm; it works well for a lot of people, but some get grogginess, vivid dreams, or a next-morning hangover feeling from a synthetic dose, especially at 5mg or higher. That’s why five of the eight picks here, including both TribeTokes formulas, skip it and lean on CBN or a botanical blend instead. If you’ve tried melatonin and didn’t like how it felt, start with a melatonin-free pick. Melatonin’s benefit is real but modest: a meta-analysis of 19 trials found it helped people fall asleep about 7 minutes faster (Ferracioli-Oda et al., 2013).
  • CBN vs. THC vs. CBD. CBN is the cannabinoid most associated with sedation and is showing up in nearly every formula on this list, from 8mg to 20mg per gummy. THC adds relaxation and, at low doses (1 to 10mg here), a mild cannabis effect; it’s also the ingredient that will produce a positive result on a drug test. CBD is non-psychoactive and mostly contributes calm rather than sedation on its own, which is why the CBD-based picks here pair it with CBN, botanicals, or both. A 2025 meta-analysis found formulas built on cannabinoids other than CBD improved sleep quality, while CBD-only formulas didn’t (da Silva et al., 2025).
  • How many mg of CBN should you take for sleep? Most of the CBN-containing formulas on this list land between 8mg and 20mg per gummy, and the safest way in is half a gummy on your first night, then adjusting based on how you feel the next morning. More isn’t automatically better: too high a dose is the most common cause of next-day grogginess across every product reviewed here. 20mg is also the dose with the most direct trial support: in a 2024 placebo-controlled trial of 321 adults with poor sleep, 20mg of CBN reduced nighttime awakenings, though it didn’t improve overall sleep quality (Bonn-Miller et al., 2024).
  • Will it show up on a drug test? Any gummy containing Delta 9 THC, including the low-dose formulas here, will produce a positive result on a standard drug test. If you’re subject to drug testing, the THC-free options (TribeTokes CBD Sleep, Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep) or a non-cannabinoid pick (OLLY) are the safer lane. We compare THC-free CBD gummies head to head in our best CBD gummies with no THC list.
  • Timing. Take your gummy 30 to 90 minutes before bed, since edibles have to pass through digestion before the effects kick in. Our guide to how long before bed to take cannabis for sleep covers it by format.
  • Is it daytime stress that keeps you up, rather than sleep itself? That calls for a different formula. Our best gummies for stress relief list compares THC, CBD and non-cannabis picks by dose per gummy, with the daytime-safe options marked.

How to Avoid Next-Day Grogginess

Next-day grogginess usually comes down to dose and timing, not the ingredient itself. Start with half a gummy (the half-gummy column in the table above shows what that works out to for each pick), take it 30 to 90 minutes before bed, and leave room for a full night before you need to be sharp. If you wake up foggy, lower the dose before you switch products. Some people feel groggy after melatonin at higher doses, so if that’s you, a melatonin-free pick is the easier test.


Frequently Asked Questions

Seven questions sleep-gummy shoppers ask most, answered from the same label checks.

Are TribeTokes sleep gummies melatonin-free?

Yes. Both the THC and CBD versions use 250mg of L-Tryptophan and 1mg of vitamin B6 instead of synthetic melatonin. That combination works on the pathway your body already uses to produce its own melatonin, rather than adding a dose from outside it.

What’s the difference between CBN and melatonin for sleep?

CBN is a cannabinoid that binds to receptors in your endocannabinoid system and produces a sedating effect. Melatonin is a hormone that signals your circadian rhythm that it’s time to wind down. They work through completely different systems, which is why some people who don’t respond well to melatonin still get results from CBN, and vice versa. In a 2024 trial of 1,020 adults, CBN at 25 to 100mg improved sleep quality about as much as 4mg of melatonin (Kolobaric et al., 2024; a CBN ingredient maker funded it).

Will CBN or THC gummies show up on a drug test?

THC will, even at the low 1 to 10mg doses used in sleep formulas, because standard drug tests look for THC metabolites. If you’re subject to drug testing, a THC-free CBN product or a non-cannabinoid option is the safer choice.

How many mg of CBN should I take for sleep?

The formulas on this list range from 8mg to 20mg of CBN per gummy. Start with half a gummy on your first night and adjust from there based on how you feel the next morning, since taking too much is the most common cause of next-day grogginess.

How do I avoid feeling groggy after a sleep gummy?

Start with half a gummy, take it 30 to 90 minutes before bed, and leave room for a full night of sleep. If you still wake up foggy, lower the dose before switching products. Some people feel groggy after melatonin at higher doses, so a melatonin-free formula is worth trying if that’s you.

What are the best gummies to help you sleep through the night?

If waking up in the middle of the night is the problem rather than falling asleep, look at the CBN-forward picks: Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep and both TribeTokes sleep gummies carry 20mg of CBN per gummy. In a 2024 placebo-controlled trial of 321 adults, 20mg of CBN reduced nighttime awakenings, though it didn’t improve overall sleep quality. Start with half a gummy 30 to 90 minutes before bed and adjust from there.

Is TribeTokes a legitimate, lab-tested brand?

TribeTokes has been making hemp-derived cannabinoid products since 2017, is woman-owned, and has been covered in Forbes, Allure, and Rolling Stone. Every batch is third-party lab tested for potency and purity, with certificates of analysis published at tribetokes.com/certificates-of-analysis/.


Bottom Line

For most people, TribeTokes THC Gummies for Sleep is the pick: 10mg THC, 20mg CBN and the L-Tryptophan plus B6 pathway, no melatonin, $45 for 20. Go TribeTokes CBD Sleep or Charlotte’s Web if you’re drug tested, cbdMD if you want melatonin in the mix, and OLLY or Natural Vitality if you’d rather skip cannabis.
