When I tried Voodoo, I wasn't sure what to expect; it was my first time smoking a pure sativa. I was very happy to have found it, because in my area, Voodoo is an extremely rare strain - so when I found the opportunity to buy some (and for cheap!), I jumped at the chance. The CRAZY thing was that this didn't hit me like a stereotypical sativa. I noted that "They should have called this 'Don't worry about a god**** thing'" because that's how I felt. I smoked about a third of a joint, then waited. And waited. At first, nothing. Then, about 15 minutes in... a very awesome, mellow, carefree euphoria. I was relaxed, smiley for no reason, and VERY horny. I still haven't tried Voodoo as sex weed, but after that experience, I think it's going to be a winner in that category. As is, though... wow. If I see more Voodoo pop up around here, you'd better believe I'm going to scramble to buy a LOT more of it. As far as I'm concerned, it's an incredible strain.

I smoked about 45% of a joint of Glass Slipper by myself and then started taking notes. The first thing I thought of typing out was "Ohhhhhhhh yeahhhh." I don't normally notice significant differences in the taste of weed, but one of my exhales reminded me of vanilla cake frosting - really nice. The high was weird, but not completely in a bad way. At first, I was relaxed. Then, I started looking at pictures of parties from when I was younger, and I started feeling really nostalgic and melancholy, almost bummed out. Then, things twisted around and I started feeling happy again and very chilled-out. I was surprised that Glass Slipper didn't make me very horny... in fact, I didn't feel aroused at all. I felt like eating snacks and watching a horror flick. So, that's what I did, and eventually headed to bed. This was not a bad high, and luckily I still have some around to try again. It's nice, but not something I would go way out of my way to hunt down again.

When I tried Sunset Sherbert, I was chatting with a friend of mine online, and I noted that the lights got fuzzy, I was walking funny, I was grinning like a fool randomly, and I felt horny and really FUNNY. My notes included, "I'ma gettin' LOST in the grip of the munchiesnessness and the weednessness" and "As I stood up from my office chair to go on my snackyfood run, the bassline Blondie's 'Rapture' started playing in my head." This wasn't a favorite by any means, but it was really, really a fun high and I would definitely smoke it again, especially with friends.

I'm not a big fan of the Critical Kush, but perhaps I just had a bad batch or didn't smoke enough of it. I smoked most of a whole rather skinny joint of it, by myself. I noted that I felt a little more relaxed mentally, and I didn't get very "loopy" or out of my head. However, after staying up about a half-hour or so and then heading to bed... I couldn't get to sleep. I twisted and turned and wanted to pass out, but it took a long time. Overall, Critical Kush was a real disappointment and one that I would avoid in the future.

This is currently one of my absolute favorite strains. AWESOME sex weed. After about a year of wanting to try Atomic Northern Lights, I finally found it at a local dispensary. I tried it myself and felt amazing. Then, I tried it as sex weed... and it was ridiculously good. Purple Dream had been my #1 choice for sex weed up to this point, but Atomic Northern Lights took the crown. My skin felt sensational, and I had visuals in my head but I could still focus on the task at hand. She climaxed countless times and when I finally reached the finish line - HOLY COW. Plus, I noted that I felt more creative, and for a while, my head tried to figure out how a particular Black Keys bassline would mash up well with some other song (which I can't remember). My only gripe about Atomic Northern Lights: It's VERY hard to find around here. Fortunately, I stocked up quite a bit, so as far as this strain is concerned, I'll be set for a while.

The first time that I ever tried Space Queen, I was in the first few months of strain research/collecting, and it gave me such a good, fun rush that I immediately thought, "This is one of my favorite strains ever." I also noticed that it amped up my arousal, and I made a note that I wanted to "go bang a hottie with a VENGEANCE." A while later (maybe a few weeks), I smoked some with my #1 honey, thinking we were going to have some mega-intensive sexytime. The funny thing was... neither of us got horny. We tried playing and we both got totally relaxed and passed out. It was the exact same batch of Space Queen that I had smoked originally, so maybe we were just too exhausted for it. I still get amped when I see it for sale around here, as it's pretty rare... and even though we had that one lackluster experience, I'll probably buy more. Definite recommendation, even if not a current favorite.

The people at Nirvana have been great to deal with; most recently, Poppy (Rachel) was a delight. Not pushy, very courteous, and a pleasure to chat with. My problem is this: If you advertise that you have Citrus Sap on Leafly, and I come in that day to find that it's now sold out (and thus, I buy another product), and then the next day, you're still showing it on Leafly 14 minutes after you've updated your menu... well, that doesn't exactly seem right, unless you magically got some new Citrus Sap really early that day. It wouldn't be so much of an issue if I hadn't had similar issues in the past with strains I'd been hunting being shown on Leafly and then not being available when I called or dropped by. I'd buy from Nirvana again, but they're not going to be a dispensary that I can confidently recommend.

Today is June 22nd, and at the time of this writing, this dispensary hasn't updated their menu on Leafly since May 1st. I went in looking for Valley Girl and got into a room with about six or seven other customers and about four or five active budtenders. It was loud, chaotic, and frustrating. When I was finally able to talk to a budtender, I asked for Valley Girl. He advised me, with a bit of a blank stare, that they didn't have it. I asked him if they had Platinum Girl Scout Cookies, and he said that they did, but I didn't want it. As you may imagine, this came as a surprise to me, since I thought I knew what I wanted and I had just clearly asked him for it. He then proceeded to tell me what I should get instead, and I proceeded to leave and give my money to a better dispensary nearby. This place is a joke.
