This is very subjective and also highly dependend on the mix of Cannabinoids in the plant. The Terpenes where found out to have no real effect (some strains called "Sativa" have the same as others called "Indica")
The more CBN is in the plant (Cannabinol) the more sleepy and less psychoactive it is. CBN comes from degradation of THC, so old plants (more UV, older resin) have more CBN.
"Sativa" Strains like Haze are often harvested very early, while "Indica" strains like Afghan Kush are harvested very late.
So Indicas are probably very good for sleeping, but for me personally Sativas make it impossible for me to sleep
