Over time I've tried almost three hundred different strains. None of the classic sativa strains, like Durban Poison, Panama Red, Jack Herer, Acapulco Gold, Tangie, Harlequin, Lamb's Bread, Legend of Nigeria, just to name a few, have given me anything all that great. Most don't have ANY effect whatsoever, actually. But then I decided to give Alaskan Thunder Fuck a try... and it was the ABSOLUTE BEST HIGH I'VE EVER HAD. Seriously. I suffer from several pain conditions, PTSD, Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Major Depressive Disorder, nausea, appetite loss, and memory loss and other problems due to a bad fall a few years ago that left me with brain damage. No strain I have tried has ever effected more than three or four of those things, and usually less, but this strain took care of everything except my nausea.
My body pain just vanished, subsumed by a buzzy, numb feeling all over, I was no longer falling over with exhaustion, and I actually had energy! This is the only strain that's ever made me feel like I just needed to get up and do things. I was definitely high, but yet still clear-headed enough to think. Onset took a while - as in almost an hour. But once it hit, it lasted seemingly forever, and all the way down - as in, I was just as high going downslope as I was coming up it. I was euphoric and chatty, happier than I ever remember being. As well, my daughter, when I gave her some, I even told her it was a creeper, but I could see her face and knew what she was thinking, after all, I'd thought the same. It took so long to kick in neither of us thought we were going to get anything from it. But then all of a sudden, she blinked, like she'd just been whacked in the face, and said, "Whoa... I am REALLY high right now. Holy hell." And all I could do was say "See? Told you!"
Two cautions; THIS STRAIN IS NOT FOR THOSE NEW TO CANNABIS. I have a very high tolerance, and this stuff kicked my ass. Also, on the comedown, once it was all over, I was WIPED OUT. That worked well, 'cause it was time for sleep, anyway. In closing, this is a ten-strain on a scale of one to five, and my absolute MOST FAVORITE STRAIN of all time.
It was from Pagoda, and every eighth they showed me was uniformly beautiful. When I opened it, the scent just smacked me, and the bud itself was dense and sticky, just amazing. I really can't rave enough.
