OMG! I've been new to this and bouncing around a bit. Most of my preferred ways to indulge have been ingesting edibles, vaping small samples of flower and the oil THC cartridges. It's mostly for anxiety and muscle spasms. Teaching...
Anyway, (shout out intended) I went to my awesome dispensary and was first introduced to this and another strain by Jenn. She initially suggested a different one for me. But I'm a rebel and heard so much about the controversy over this strain.As an English teacher I like conflict so I just had to try.
Meh! and disappointment, especially compared to other hybrids tried. Wish I listen to the experts. You live and learn.
But let's fast forward.
Just gave it another try based on a friend's suggestion. I used a bong!
This. Weed. Is. The. Best!!!
Finally, (again, shout out intended) I feel something that addresses my anxiety, tension spasms and elevates my mind! I came home at 6ish after being in traffic to visit Ermont for weed and then home. I cooked and went shopping for a school project and am now writing this. After I will grade some quizzes I intended to do tomorrow. It is 10:30pm, and usually I am dead tired and achy.
You should also know I am 45, a woman going through "the change" and nights are often uncomfortable. I haven't had a flash. They are regular at night regardless of whether I sleep. I feel relaxed but so calm in mind too and ready to focus. Also, in the background there is a tingly sensation, euphoria? Arousal? Not sure. It is slight but there.
My friend said earlier when I tried it, I wasn't practiced with the method. Maybe I did something wrong? I think so as I only had a gram, but probably wasted most with clumsy skill.
I give this 4 stars. It was earthy, sensual and smooth on inhale. Almost musky and herbal on exhale. First I noticed a keen sense of self, sinking and relaxing. Then, the world got lighter, less burdened and the weight was binding and comforting, but not entrapment. I was able to continue business as usual. I have mental stamina, but not so much as to cause insomnia. I know I can sleep at will.
I've had a few other strains that were indica hybrids. Most don't last very long. This is lingering and softly dissipating, no anxiety rush or desire to take another toke. I'm all good!
Mother earth and skillfull growers, thank you for this strain. Thank you Jenn and Ermont for helping me have access to it!
