Acapulco Gold
Acapulco Gold effects are mostly energizing.
Acapulco Gold potency is higher THC than average.
Acapulco Gold is a rare sativa marijuana strain. As one of the most well-known strains, Acapulco Gold has been likened to dinner at a five-star restaurant. This strain produces effects that are motivating and energizing. This strain comes from the area in and around Acapulco, Mexico, and its orange hairs resemble a gold nugget, with gold, green, and brown colors and plenty of resin on the buds. An aroma of burnt toffee lingers when the bud is broken up. Acapulco Gold has a reputation for being one of the best cannabis strains ever created, and it's becoming more difficult to find.

Acapulco Gold strain reviews(877)
I am fairly new to smoking flower, three years. I like to do a wake and bake and have yet to go " Jeezus this is dog poop, I will never smoke this again!" I am not a weed snob. I am not a beer snob, booze snob, destination snob or a coffee snob. I am the fifth kid in an Irish Catholic family. I'm just happy to be included and not get a nugie. I am very open to try new things.
That said.
Acapulco Gold really is smooth. It's like sitting next to a pleasant fire with a hot coffee laced liberally with whiskey, thinking of everything and nothing at all. The kids are asleep. Your spouse is asleep. The dog does not have to go out. The cat has not lauched itself into its nightly reign of terror. The bills are kinda-sorta caught up. No one is sick. The car hasn't shit the bed. The dog hasn't snacked out of the litter box in a week. The cat hasn't thrown up a hairball in two days. The kids are decidedly not the shit heads my siblings were or the asshats his siblings were. They're on the honor roll, play sports and have friends.
The sound of the washing machine churning and the drying turning along with the crackle of the fireplace and for one perfect moment in your chaotic life, everything is pretty f*cking good.
Then the sound a cat horking on the carpet brings you back to reality, you finishing your Acapulco Gold, clean up the gack, decide to vaccuum the entire room, pick up everything in the room and realize the kitchen floor is a wreck, so off it goes to sweep and mop land! Hey, the garbage needs to be emptied, off we go the cans. No one took the cans down this week.. which means no one emptied the upstairs bathrooms...... Oh yes, the cans are full and finding their rooms to be hazardous in daylight, under the cloak of darkness, empty their cans and take out the laundry while they sleep. Two-three productive hours and several piles of laundry later, you finally go to bed, falling asleep instantly.
Finally found a strain for excellent day time use, as far as staying grounded only Jack H, comes even close. Now I’ve smoked both flower, and live resin. There is a difference, but it’s not negative at all. Now with flower it’s way more subdued, and then ramps up to a pleasant body high, and functional if not sorta creative (I am an artist). Now the live resin bits like a freight train ! It’s a concentrate so the potency is in your face. I don’t like to use THC levels as flower; to resin is just not apples to apples. So the equal factors; same taste, same lung expansion, same mostly being motivated to do stuff you never done before. Positives, it’s the same damn thing.
Negatives, flower is mellow and gradual to full effect, live resin is a punch to the head, and body, and it’s easy to dab to much.
Overall, wow it doesn’t come much better. Seriously there’s not a crazy amount of difference, but for how quickly one hits, and the coming up stage.
I’d highly recommend either flower or, concentrate. Just be careful not to over do it too fast. For my Sativa strains this is in my top 3.
AN AMAZING CHORE DAY STRAIN.
My dispensary saw me browsing and suggested this AC flower to me. More so that it was new to the store and on sale, and they heard it was good too. Got it for the hell of it.
You can baaaarely notice you've got a high going on. I thought it was just a weaker strain at first. The next two days of smoking it I rearranged and cleaned up my room and other spaces and did a lot of things I put off for a long time. Didn't feel like anything was 'too much trouble to get to' which is what kept be to getting to these things for so long. I just kept going at it.
I wasn't sure why, I was on my period so by all accounts I shoulda just been curled up in bed.
I thought maybe it was this strain so I looked it up and sure enough, it seems to be the case with others too. Never had a strain make me SO FUNCTIONAL lol
