After smoking this strain over the last few weeks I have sadly come to the conclusion that this strain is not for me. While it does seem to help my body relax and sleep a little bit better, there are negatives I can't ignore. It kills my ambition and intensifies my anxious thoughts. More often than not, when I smoke this I think about things I'm working on and this weed makes me not want to continue those projects. For example, if earlier in the day I say "I should start doing something creative like writing or composing music" this weed makes me have second thoughts. It also seems to make my anxious thoughts bubble up and take the spotlight. Whatever it is the made me slightly anxious earlier in the day will intensify with this weed. I'll give a couple examples. I've recently had bouts of insomnia and sleep anxiety. Although this strain helped me get more sleep, it has ironically made me doubt my abilities to sleep. Another example, after reading news headlines, smoking later made me start to overthink world issues that I have no control over and gave me a sense of impending doom, something I'd normally be able to gloss over. While I thought it was just me, other strains don't seem to have this effect. So I'd say this is a weed strain I won't be going back to.

I have only ever used Alien OG in vape form, but I can tell you that it is my go-to when I need something quick. I consider Alien OG like a multi-tool because it's truly the perfect hybrid. It's great for daytime use, social events, before bed, and sometimes even to help you fall back asleep. If you're looking for a vape with little to no taste, this is a good option. This strain makes me feel however I want it to make me feel. Basically it enhances what you're already feeling. So if you're up, alert and energetic it's going to enhance that. If you're sleepy, it's going to help make you more sleepy. But there is a downside. There was a time I felt heightened anxiety, but it was completely situational. I had hit the vape a couple times before a concert, and my seat was in the nosebleeds. I was completely unprepared for nosebleed seats and sitting that high up while being high was not fun. Again, it enhances any feelings you're already having. So since I already have a fear of heights, this made it 10x worse. That said, it also makes you very talkative, so I distracted myself by chatting with my gf the whole time 😂

A mid-range hybrid great for everyday use. It's not going to get you incredibly high, so if you need a simple buzz while doing day to day tasks, this is a great strain. I find that the high doesn't last too long, but it's a solid high without the paranoia.

Kush mountains is interesting to me. I originally got it because of the high THC potency but also to see if it would help me sleep. This weed definitely relaxes me, but makes me wanna sink into the couch and do nothing. The one issue is that all though it made me relaxed, it did not make me sleepy. In fact my sleep is usually poor when I smoke this. I think one of the reasons is it makes me feel incredibly high, like high up in the sky where I feel like I'm gonna fall. Not a great feeling when you're trying to fall asleep. Nevertheless, it is a strong strain. If you're looking to chill out during the day, probably a good strain.

Blue Dream is one of my favorite strains of all time. Don't let the mid-level THC content fool you, it is stronger than you'd think. It makes me energized, happy, and talkative. I will say that if you are needing to focus on something, this is not the strain. For example, I smoked this and tried to watch a movie, but instead wound up daydreaming and missed the first half of the plot. This is not a new experience with this strain for me and I wonder if anyone else experiences that. When it happens it's often sad thoughts and daydreams, not to be confused with anxiety or paranoia; last time it made me think about someone I miss. Maybe that's why they call it blue dream.

It's a very chill high without the brain fog. It seems versatile, like you could smoke this on a walk when you're out and about, or for just relaxing while you're watching TV. It smells sweet. A good high without the paranoia.
