INCREDIBLE STRAIN! This is one of those strains i tend to keep quiet about when im discussing weed with my friends lol Its like my dirty little secret. I first tried this in Amsterdam. After 2 days of non stop smoking i was getting to the point where i was all weeded out and a lot of strains where just tasting the same and making me feel the same. But not this. I vividly remember sparking up a nice joint of this in Susies Saloon with a nice round of cold Heinekens. By the time i had finished smoking this strain it had transported me back to the first time i had ever gotten high, that amazing soaring feeling that just unlocks your mind and puts you at one with the world and everything around you. Lots of laughter, incredibly euphoric, incredible smoke. I advise anyone to try this atleast once, it really is like finding a Diamond in a haystack (no pun intended).

Good middle of road Sativa. As the name hints (your mood will improve)! This strain is a laugh inducing machine compared to most..well maybe it helps that I had Rick and Morty on. If you smoke mainly Indica this Sativa will give you an adventure time urge. Even if that's just to the backyard or porch! Mid range high 1 (1/2) - 2 Hrs, mellow finish. Flavors: Spiced black rum,Sweet under tone, Earthy finish. Tender's notes: Have your favorite beverage at the ready! Your eyes may glaze like the doughnuts...!

This stuff is wonderful. It is my favorite so far. Depression, stress, anxiety... Buh bye! Very high CBD for such a strong sativa. Taste: I don't remember what it tasted like but I remember liking the flavor. Perfect for doing yoga, or going on an adventure!! (As long as someone else is driving). Its funny how after dark it eased my anxiety and made me paranoid at the same time. Example: I was walking down a dark street at night and thought I saw some wild possum or raccoon rustling in the bushes, but I wasn't really nervous about it, especially since I think I may have imagined it. I experienced true tranquility and serenity on this stuff. I was sort of even able to meditate and gain a little faith in the universe and myself. It connected the scientist in me with the hippie in me and let me study myself in a personal yet somewhat objective way. It was the priciest flower I've ever paid for, but the most worth it purchase of flower I've ever made.

The oversized colas often need pruning and extra support, but the added work pays off come harvest time when full, frosty buds cover almost the entire plant.
