Dank Commander

Dank Commander, Listed as a hybrid on most websites and articles, however, Cresco Labs decided to declare it an indica in the LLR cart. I haven’t fallen in love with an indica, or hybrid/indica in quite some time. Honestly, it just feels like a really heavy indica with super sedating effects, but a nice cerebral, almost headband like feel to it. It does cool your thoughts down, if you are somewhat hyper-vigilant such as myself. Warm body, warm head feel. Nice and chill. Highly recommend. Taste: I love the pungent taste you get from this one from the Cat Piss as funny as that sounds! It’s like an old school smell. I love it. Just such a skunky mix of that and almost like berries or some deep purply, with deep citrus undertones. Effects: body + mind Body: heavy relaxed limbs, tingly, massage like sensations. Mind: total relaxation, less thoughts, euphoria is high on this one, and i feel it cooling my racing thoughts. I can see this being a great strain to expand on and really look into for its medical benefits...if you’ve ever smoked blueberry before, it has a similar level of relaxation. Also, some strains still just make me laugh more than others, and this one definitely carries that attribute in my experience. Overall, 9/10

Spectacular, this is indeed one of my favorite strains. This always gives me the best kind of high. Lots of giggles and good vibes. Goon on pain and inflammations.

First, I saw one person mention how Cresco labs labels this an Indica. The fact is that everything you buy in dispensaries are hybrids, even ones proporting to be 100% pure indica or sativa. This has been widely observed through genetic testing. Since those terms are not really valid outside of the botanical context anyway, but they are so widely used that companies are forced to market their products accordingly. I tend to ignore branding and make choices based on the individual character of a given cultivar. What Cresco has done, if I understand correctly, is base the indica, hybrid, sativa label on the average percentage of myrcene in a strain. I guess that's one way to do it. Anyhow, this is an incredible strain flat out. Cresco provides a very consistent high quality product in my experience and their genetics seem excellent (The katsu Bubba kush cut they have is unreal. The crosses they have produced with said cut are even better) The aroma of the commander is nutso. Upon opening the container and shoving my nose in for a good sniff, all I smell is rotting fish. WTF? Once ground, however, and incredible smells blooms forth. A strong floral base with hints of citrus and other more complex notes. Underneath it all is dankness. Not the rotting fish smell anymore but slightly skunky and reminiscent of a wet moldy basement. Together, the effect is unique and memorable. Flavor wise, DC is more subtle. Much more of the dank earthiness with hints of the floral and fruit that create pleasant and smooth overall tasting smoke. This bud was cured properly. The effects, for me, fit perfectly into the early evening transition from work to relaxation. Euphoric and putting the mind and body at ease, it can couch lock you but that can easily be remedied. If you don't enjoy that sort of thing, keep your dose in the average range. Strong muscle relaxation highlights the body high and the head high is not real intense or energizing but neither is it too heavy or narcotic. A great strain for chill conversations, watching a movie, or binging on a TV show. 5 thumbs up.
