Each person has a unique experience with each strain. Here is my experience:
-Good energy boost
-Heavy head high and a little foggy
-euphoric
-not very social
-uplifted
-motivated
Not a fan that my head was a little foggy and my decision making was a little slow especially since it gave me so much energy and motivation. I was a little down on this strain until I paired it with an indica(tigers milk) at a 1:1 ratio. I had an absolutely amazing high. Super head and body high. Very happy and very uplifted. No paranoia or anxiety. I was a bit couch locked but not tired at all. Binged on some tv with pure carefree enjoyment.
Astounding to say the least, buds are very crystaly and not too dense, powerful high and very relaxing, makes me quite talkative which is great because I'm usually quiet.
I got this as a free sample from a dispensary in Seattle. This was my ONLY bad experience with one of their products.
Tried smoking it 3 times. Within MINUTES I had a panic attack each time and the panic attack lasted at least an hour each time.
This strain amazing as concentrate. I picked up a half gram of ISS & my only regrets not buying more. Definite skunky taste, earthy & has a tropical scent mixed in.
The buzz is great for wake n baking, gives you energy without making you feel too jittery. I love skunk phenotypes. Also gives me deep relaxation from head to toe. Last about 2 hours. This strain didn't trigger any anxiety or paranoia, it's an energizing yet relaxing strain. I love to be social on this strain, and I love going outside to walk my dog on Island Sweet Skunk.
This strain is uplifting yet it can be very calming for ptsd when you're stuck in a ptsd induced panic attack (at least for me). The medical marijuana concentrate I have has a cbd rating higher than some indica strains but I can not remember the percentages. For concentrate: Taste is good, sweet and only light skunk notes on the exhale and when enjoying the aromatics of the vaped concentrate. Small doses are recommended for newbies as it can cause worsening panic attacks if you take too much. Yes this review seems to contradict itself, but different times of day give me different effects. Very much suggest this strain for overall daily use. will have to explore this strain more in a few months once Pennsylvania has full flower now that full flower has been approved by the medical marijuana advisory board for Pennsylvania. Here's to the future
I like to use cannabis to see if I can enhance spiritual practices. First vape SATIVA strain “Sweet Skunk Island”. Three second draw and hold for short period. You experience almost instant blissful energetic experience with remarkable lucidity. I was playing Michael Hammer followed by Faure on the CD player as I prayed the 72 Divine Names for about 45 minutes taking a second and third draw during the prayer session. These were INTENSE devotionals to God on behalf of this entire reality. You know you are praying and petitioning and you know you are heard. Your prayers do seem to be magnified. To dream the only possible dream in this reality, and to feel that the realization of that dream is imminent. Now that is encouraging! This experience was cerebrally Cosmic in nature, the crack in the cosmic egg seems to open, you feel you are disengaged from the matrix, it’s literally a pure 3.5 hour LSD session in which you pretty much forget your Earthly identity, impersonally detach from the problems of this reality and focus on your inner spiritual identity and the Joyous Cosmology behind this reality. Remarkable, wonderful, joyous, blissful, hopeful, peaceful, beautiful! Nothing negative, no paranoia, other than slight pungent taste and little more harsh on the lungs than the Indica strain. I realized that you could take one draw during the day as a “pick-me-up” as you go about your business functioning without any impairment (though no driving). Unlike the Indica strain you feel neither wasted nor stoned. Since I now have both Sativa and Indica strain resin cartridges I can create my own hybrid experience going forward.
Wonderful upbeat strain. Your body is relaxed and you have energy to do the things you must do ...and you'll be in a great mood while you're doing these things. It's hard not to smile. Nice strain for your friends who are new to cannabis...Just don't let them over do it.
This is an odd strain. It's got that Skunky funk you want, and it manages to live up to the name with a noticeable sweetness to it. It is a fine example of a well cultivated Sativa. Unfortunately the buzz on this is somewhat lacking in the euphoria/happy/uplifting department.
One solid hit (dry herb vape) gets me nicely focused and alert. It's a great mid-day strain when you keep it moderate. In fact this can be a great way to pull yourself up from an Indica/Hybrid stone or any other kind of sleepiness or lethargy in your day. You get a nice healthy swell of energy, but not too much and not anxious/nervous energy! But there's very little happy in this flower. I have Dysthymia. I just need some happy throughout the day, in a way that is not impairing.
A second hit will set me firmly elevated. This is a potent Sativa. Only at this point does it start to impart some more euphoria, but unfortunately we're now also in impaired territory. It is a clear Sativa high that you can still do math on... but you're not going to be doing it very fast, and gods help you if you need to remember anything complex. The strain continues to deliver a lot of healthy energetic vibes at this level.
