As a latecomer to cannabis(38), I decided ACDC should my very first strain which I chose for its low THC and high CBD content, hoping it would be beginner friendly.
It turns out, this was a great first strain for me.
It had a really clean, pine smell that somewhat reminded me of hops.
The taste was as earthy and piney as the nose indicated, and upon my first draw on my vaporizer I felt an immediate calm wash over me. I felt very relaxed and content. Other than some slight heart racing, The only noticeable effects were a sense of calm, and I began to enjoy an almost zen feeling where I wasn't hyper focused or obsessing over my problems.
The one thing that I wish I got a bit more from ACDC was more pain relief. I suffer from a lot of chronic back and joint problems, and I was really hoping this would have put more of a dent in that, but maybe if I got some that was a bit closer to a 1:1 THC/CBD ratio, it might help more in that department.
Recommended as a good all rounder any time of day, but preferably before evening.

Great for CBDs! This one will make you feel a bit high though and thats a good thing :) 2 family members have tried that are non users and both agreed it helped with pain and that was by eating a raw bud
good for pain relief, not feeling motivated to go do things but hurting less helps

Good for post seizure treatment
Nice aroma
Super relaxing
Kills pain and nausea
This strain has approximately a 1:20 THC:CBD ratio, meaning that it's psychoactive effects are essentially null. CBD works well as an anti-anxiety, anti-nausea remedy (There are other uses as well, I think for epilepsy).
Nevertheless, the fact that AC/DC was marked as a Sativa in the dispensary was a bit random, but I'm sure that if the CBD were lower, there would be more heady effects.
With this strain, I was very clear headed, but do feel warm in my face and in general, a calmness comes over very gently.
The nugs themselves are like little popcorn kernels, they're very small and dense. The taste isn't necessarily the best, but I would recommend this one more for medicinal use than anything else.
This strain is one of my go to's whenever I have pain in my knee. I normally do a 7:1 mix for every 14 grams of weed I try and cut 2 grams of a high CBD. its great for out door activities, the taste was rather earthy, not one of my favorite taste but it wasn't bad. BudTender Approval.
