NOT FOR DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, PARANOIA, OR ANY MENTAL ILLNESS RELATED TO DEPRESSION OR ANXIETY!
This is a strain for the *happy* average college student or any kind of worker really. It can be energizing, enhancing in focus and brain power, and uplifting in the search for knowledge. It is a relatively clear headed high that doesn't have a low over-do limit like most Indicas and Hybrids.
Others have recommended it for Depression, PTSD, and Anxiety but I highly advise AGAINST doing that. I suffer from all three and usually have a lightly enhanced level of paranoia no matter what strain I smoke. That being said this strain made my mind so focused on the feelings that are bringing me the most suffering, while energizing me so I can't easily fall asleep to escape. No matter what I've done to get myself out of fits after smoking this while feeling lost, I could not. My mind would go directly back to that negative feeling and images flashed in my mind of memories tied to the cause of the suffering. As you could imagine, not too fun.
About it: It looks fake, to put it bluntly. It is the most distinct strain in many ways that I've come across. It is PUNGENTLY lemon/ammonia smelling that is overpowering sometimes to some, very pleasurable for others. It also gives the appearance of being fake because it buds in dense fat nuggets that are lighter green and almost covered in THC and vibrant colored hairs. HAIRS everywhere! Definitely one of the hairiest strains I have ever seen, and I have had it tested to make sure it wasn't some other herb compress or fake weed. It is indeed just a very distinct and bold strain of Sativa.
I would recommend buying a small amount and seeing how it effects you. I've seen positive and negative reviews for Depression, Anxiety, ADD/ADHD, and mental disorders so it seems the strain chooses the smoker in a way.
Give it a shot if you have taken or have needed to take medications like Ritalin, Adderall, Welbutrin, or similar drugs. Or if you are one of those college "dopers" cramming for finals.
