Black Afghan is a complex indica-dominant strain with euphoric and relaxing effects. The flowers develop as jade, pine tree-shaped colas with dark green, nearly black sugar leaves. Black Afghan’s terpene profile is an aromatic mixture of pepper, earth, and sage smothered in dark berries, alluding to the strain’s cerebral and physical effects. This strain’s heady, uplifted buzz and relaxing, munchie-inducing body effects make it perfect for a lazy afternoon.

This is a super heavy dank strain I always go for when I just want to get knocked TF out. The smell on this one is heavy and gassy, with notes of pine pepper and sage. The taste is earthy, tar, sage, and pine with an underlaying layer of sweetness to the finish. This one is a creeper, but definitely has more of a heavy body high and narcotic effect.

This is an all time favorite of mine. The smell is so mesmerizing. It has this deep herbal sagey type of nose with almost a dark berry like touch to sort of round it out. It’s probably the one strain next to bad Azz Kush that I’ve continued to take the lid off the jar and huff just for the sake of it because it’s so nice smelling and yet so absolutely unique that it’s hard to pin down what it really smells relative to. Anyways, the effect is pure gold for those of us with low tolerances but still love cannabis. It’s about as calming as you can get, won’t make your head spin with thoughts and that rushy panic feeling. Instead, classic stoned relaxed body relaxing buzzy weed. It will make you voraciously hungry though, and due to its Stoney, relaxed, carefree, sleepy nature, you’re going to only want to have this when you’re ready to just chill, end of day, or I’m on vacation and you don’t mind a mid day nap, because you’ll be taking one for sure. Definitely not something you want to hit before doing errands. You’re probably not going to make it.

A 100% Indica that leans more to the mild side of the spectrum. Highlights of the experience with Black Afghani: Low and mild body vibes at onset with a sense of grounding. Mind calming at lower doses and early into the experience, but gives way to a very dreamy state where deep, and even profound thoughts can occur. The stone is pleasant but mild. During the peak of the experience, if the dose is high enough rising sensations can be felt for a short time, but they dissipate rather quickly. The come down on this one is very easy without any negative side effects like some other strains can produce. The feeling after having come down from this Cannabis strain is one of having just taken a small nap. Imbibed at night it can cause one to become somewhat more sleepy than they normally would at that time, but Black Afghani is not by any means a knockout Indica from my experiences with it. Black Afghani smokes hot, but not harsh. Can induce ravenous hunger that is impossible to sate. This is what I dislike the most about this strain, but for those who need an appetite boost, Black Afghani's ability to do that is one of the strongest Ive felt. The smell of the buds is one I can best describe as Copal like with notes of pine. It is a sweet and soft scent which is probably the best bud smell I have so far experienced. When crushed, there is a citrus scent that becomes apparent. The taste is somewhat piney. I give this strain a solid B rating. I prefer heavier, deeply stony Indicas personally, but I have found no other strong negatives with this strain aside from its propensity to smoke hot, and its induction of ravenous, insatiable hunger. Otherwise though, Black Afghani is an excellent winding down strain at the end of the day that will neither knock you out, nor blast you into space, but allow you to both either stay lucid and chill out, or close your eyes, relax, and drift on gentle waves until you are ready to hit the sack.
