I smoked the real UW cancer research strain in 1987 and will never forget it. Got it from a student that knew someone growing it for the UW and of course it got around to a few select groups. The stuff going around now is some purple strain that's been mixed into it, possibly and it's called UW Purple. The original was lime green, had an extremely Indica buzz and had a real light piney taste. It was super light weight buds, that were very dense though, not airy at all. It gave you a very heavy feeling behind the eyes and you could eat 3 Dicks Deluxe with fries, tartars and a Chocolate Shake, no problem. That's why they called it Cancer research weed. Chemo patients were able to eat.

Strongest indica I've come across so far. This numbs my brain and body and puts me into a muscle relaxing sleep. Unfortunately if I smoke too much of this it's difficult to wake up from it the next morning I feel like I have a minor hangover... coffee usually sweeps me out of it though. This stuff is pretty intense so next time I have a migraine I will be using this to medicate.

UW is like a warm bath or hot tub. It slowly eases your pain and you just feel warm and floaty. Expect a good amount of couch lock. UW has no real flavor. It is a pretty flat, sterile flavor. I think this is its biggest drawback.

"What is this strain? It puts me to sleep." "UW" "What's it supposed to do?" "Put you to sleep." "Then I love it."

I allowed a friend to record our experience: Very content, feeling of need to sleep. Not overly happy just a sense of contented resignation that things are carrying out in an expected sort of way. Now I will type the word toilet.

Here in Spokane Wa, I've had a few batches of UW Purp from a few peeps. Fatty baggies of buddah and these buds were straight purple. Like undeniably heavily mainly purple. Covered in fat sugary crystals literally all over the nugs. Dense fluffy bright purple and the crystals just jump off the nugs it's so easy to see. Looks like sour skittle dust. Tastes like fucking fruity candy straight up and down. Get some UW purp and if it's not how I described maybe it's just not the real thang. Great weed.

UW by Mother Earth Farms listed as an indica with a THC of 21% the most recent batch of which had 2.86% CBG and 13% CBG in the rosin version. This was my go to everyday strain for six months! Its has a earthy minty taste with a eucalyptus retro nasal. the high is a relaxing functional one very balanced body high super low anxiety. I think the CBG in conjunction with the terpene profile and other cannabinoids hit me personally very well. A better all around mood about life and it has the unique ability to help me be more awake when I wake up in the morning if I have it the night before. I highly recommend this strain to any indica lovers or people who just like to kick back and unwind to some good music.

It's a great origin story, and the dispensary around the corner from my house got some UW in ("the Purp" as they called it) the week before Seattle won the Superbowl. It felt like a good time to support a hometown strain, so I bought big into it. After sessioning UW for a couple weeks, I appreciate it as a somewhat mellow, but very pleasant high. It has a mild flavor and aroma that is appealing and sort of stereotypically weedy -- a bit of mint, a bit of skunk, and some flowery overtones. I wouldn't be surprised at all if this strain really did come from UW or somewhere nearby. UW has been doing some great research on marijuana and its effects, and has done so for a long time now. The origin story seems a bit plausible, and if it isn't true then it still feels "truthy." There are a lot of great new strains coming out of WA and CO these days. This is one of the early classics in that tradition. I definitely recommend checking it out.
