Second time around with this strain I picked up some shatter for $12.50 a half gram. It's 11:45pm & I have been trying to medicate since 8pm, but some weird & stressful stuff prevented me from doing so. My blood pressure was so high then I immediately went for blackwater. Just one dab and my pain was gone, my appetites back, and I'm having a hard time fighting off the sandman. The flavor is similar to most kush strains.

very beautiful buds, almost a forrest green covered with what looks like sugar there are so many trichromes. I have what I like to call an absolute immunity to indica's effects, basically I smoke predominantly indica's & have raised my tolerance. Considerably, however Blackwater blew me away. Upon finishing a bong load I was able to relax and slowly drift to sleep.

It's 12:40P.M., and I'm about to make a bold and daring move....I've just loaded my 43 year old pipe with a beautiful piece of BlackWater flower, and will give you a detailed appraisal of it's effects on this 60 year old mind and body. What the hell...it's after noon. Before I fire up the bowl, here's a description of the flower top: Big, dense, covered with orange hair and huge crystals. Very impressive! Ok...here goes the ignition of herbal medicine. Immediately I know that this is a strong smoke; not in its very smooth exhale, but upon inhale. A , "hard-hitter", that this old toker looks for in his medicine. I just put on the Beatle's album, "Help", and I am high. One good hit and the cerebral tranquility is quite real. It's now approx. 20 minutes since first inhale, and I swear, I'm still enjoying the effects of this herb, both in my mind and my body now. Very fine! Hit #'s 2 , 3, 4 and 5, reveal a strong , "woodsy" flavor, almost like a fine cigar of the cannabis world. The effects are both mentally elevating, and bodily relaxing. Let's put it this way, I'm playing my harmonica to the Beatles, and I actually think I sound good. A 5 Star strain of this Gift from God, Cannabis. I will be on the couch for the remainder of the day, if you're looking for me.

This review is of venom brand shatter blackwater purchased from Prime leaf North in Tucson, Arizona I dabbed this using the nectar collector configuration of the yocan wulf evolve maxxx 3-in-1 vaporizer on the medium heat setting. With my first go, I did a small dab, maybe a 4 second draw. Then as I was exhaling my second larger dab, about an 8 second draw, I felt it starting to hit. A third 6 second draw got me where I wanted to be. My brain felt tingly and fuzzy It slowly worked it's way down with a pleasant warmth and tingling from stomach on down town where I found it quite arousing. Sometime during those traveling tingles, the head high hit me right between the eyes. I'm not terribly dizzy or couch locked. Mild munchies. Full body relaxation with impressive levels of pain relief. Mind is mostly blank. Anxieties gone. Overall sense that everything is and will continue to be fine in life. Relaxation gives way to sleepiness about 30 minutes into the high. Thoughts remain clear and focused through the whole high. My only complaint is that the high was relatively short compared to other strains I use more frequently, clocking in at around 45 minutes. The high also leaves very suddenly. No slow come down, just high one minute and fine the next. There was a little bit of lingering pain relief. I can't say how long that lasted as I fell into a pretty nice sleep as soon as the head high was gone. The smell was very pungent classic weed smell, however the dab had very little taste.

I have almost an immunity to the sleepy effects of any indica because of my tolerance, I can rely on this strain for insomnia relief. Blackwater is almost purple/grape tasting.

The high has an enchantingly slow come on, then increases in power more quickly. Pupils feel dilated and vision brightened. Physical sensation around the head becomes noticeable. A surprisingly good balance of being “with it” while also totally gone. Mental space is cool, mellow, and rock solid. No bad vibes...but at the cost of all vibes. Very pain medicine like emotional suppression with similar glowy vision and heavy lids. There’s a cloudy coziness replacing the ability to think, but that warmth is notably absent in the body. The experience, while heavy, is more in-the-head sativa and feels a bit imbalanced due to the absence of any body high. Music is exceptional, layered, rich, and encompassing. The low key emotional component does reduce sensitivity and ability to be moved, but the experience is rewarding enough to deserve praise.

Opened up my eighth & smelled a sweet fruity grape scent. Buds were medium to dark green with a ton of trichomes & amber colored pistils covering the bud. Taste i got was a fruity pine. Got an mellow relaxed high which can put you to sleep at the end of the day like a lot of Indica's. The strain may have received the Third Best Indica Strain at the 2014 Los Angeles Cannabis Cup but, i just found it to average because there was nothing memorable about it for me. $@)

Ah, Blackwater. Reminds me of playing a game of inconsequential poker in the bustling hub of Red Dead Redemption. Only this time, the lonesome cowboy has a different adversary. He’s battling a foe from within that’s nearly as powerful as that gang I can’t remember the name of right now. It’s harmless enough at first. A little pressure at the base of the skull. Maybe a bit tingly. A gentle suggestion of inflation, nothing a hardened old Westerner can’t handle. And then that pressure slowly crosses the line into a persistent force, and the result it’s pushing for is irreparably destructive. How does a morose outlaw retain any sense of a passably mysterious origin when he’s discreetly fighting off cheesing? Just cheesing it so right like some average dillhole. It’s unthinkable. And even as he’s beginning to comprehend the hopelessness of his position, he’s so far gone that his instinct for survival has been eclipsed by his desire to find a decent ice cream sandwich around here. Considering this is 1911, and information is so slow to move, he isn’t even aware they’ve only barely been conceived of. By the time he realizes he just independently invented ice cream sandwiches and that his whole life may have been leading to this moment, it’s game over. Be warned.
