As a huge sativa head I'm always looking for any I can get my hands on. Unfortunately being in the Bible Belt on the east coast I can't exactly go to a store and shop, I've got to rely on some friends across the country, however I just purchased 2 new sativas I've never tried, this one and Flo. The high from this one was phenomenal, very outgoing and talkative, however for me it only lasted about 2-2.5 hours and didn't help my pain at all.
The perfect strain if your going through something. I felt a little dingy but my mind wasn’t thinking about anything stressful. (Took me 10 minutes to write this lol 😂)
First time I packed a bowl of this stuff I accidentally ended up cooking a bomb ass bowl of pasta, watching an incredibly entertaining movie, reading roughly 100 pages of my newest book, and taking the perfect shower, and then following it all up with a solid two hour nap. if that doesn't tell you enough about the strain suffice to say that were I to use five words to describe it they would be: energizing, creative, focused, euphoric, and calming.
I picked this strain up based on reviews.
I use cannabis as medicine vs rec. high, so my review is based on how it did medically for me.
1. It triggered a horrible headache, both times I smoked it. I do use cannabis as a way to help
Treat migraines, so this ended up being an awful strain for me.
2. No body relief of pain at all
3. The nugs were dense and thickly covered with trichomes.
4. I smoke in order to keep
Food down & keep me
From being too nauseous to eat. This allowed me
To eat about 1/2 banana before horrible headache hit, then I couldnt eat due to nausea from Headache.
Overall, I have almost an 1/8th left and hate it.
The strain, is really good for early morning headache relief. It's soft easy smoke, pairs well with a coffee. The high isn't super cerebral, however does offer the heady motivational style effects of a typical sativa. The hind doesn't hit you all at once, it's a slight creeper. The high lasts a decent length I'd say about an hour. Maybe more but not much. I found it helps me deal with the waking up anxiety that comes with PTSD. Overall I give it a four out of five
1st bowl helped wwith anxiety/depression very well. 2nd bowl about 5 hours later put me to sleep. Overall a good strain...but only good for 1 bowl a day.
My friend brought this down for me from Colorado and I got to say it's one of the best strains I've had! Definitely caught me and a couple of friends off guard. Luckily I found a seed on one so I'll be seeing the red headed stranger soon.
I can see why this strain won the Dope Cup. It's really awesome! When I smoke this, I feel very euphoric, giggly and energetic. It's really a great strain for going out and doing things, and I also recommend it for depression. The taste is really interesting, not the tastiest, but still really unique. I'm still giving it five stars because the feeling is truly amazing.
