Acapulco Gold

9/17/2017
Speaking from a purely subjective experience, I would not recommend this strain if you are sensitive to sativas and high THC content, however if you can handle that kind of strain I imagine it would be phenomenal. I normally go for hybrids or indicas with high CBD ratios to deal with stress, poor sleep, and anxiety. However, feeling experimental, I decided to test out a particular strain of Acapulco Gold that my go to dispensary was selling, which boasted a 9%THC to 13%CBD rating. After a mildy strenuous four hour hike I decided to mix a pretty small amount with tobacco and the result was about a 3 hour trip through one of the worst anxiety attacks I've ever experienced. I was in full panic mode; sweaty palms, dizzy, lightheaded, tense, fast heartbeat, shallow breathing, fear of passing out, and more. I began feeling feverish and eventually fell asleep for three hours with what felt like intermittent sleep apnea only to wake up with a pounding headache. Consindering some variables, I do experience some of these effects occasionally without smoking, and hiking before hand was probably exhausting, so my conclusion is that this particular strain I tried just heightened everything to it's max (both the good and bad). I'd highly recommend it to someone experienced who enjoys a long and heightened recreational sativa high. But my body chemistry just didn't handle it well. I guess I'll just have to stick to high cbd strains.
