I have very high tolerance to most strains. I had this one as a vape. I'm an old toker so I'm comparing this strain to ones that go back to the 70's - tough acts to follow. In two draws of RHS I was in a warm euphoric bath. So rare for me to go there. A third draw and I was giggling helplessly over something someone said. Also hard to go there for me, a chronic pain, PTSD patient. I stopped there (for awhile) because I didn't want to get anxious, pure sativas like this can sometimes do that. Not a tiny bit of that, and I never had a single paranoid thought. None of that. I was able to get some writing done, and I had some great ideas for how my story should be written. After about an hour of creative thinking I found myself wanting another draw, it took me right back to the warm bath stage. This almost never happens for me to be able to recreate a high. Red Headed Stranger will be on my go to strain shelf.

One of a kind. Used to see it now its been a few months and I've not seen anymore. There's only so many strain "types" out there and this is one them for sure. I worry about never finding this again. I will buy no other sativa if I do find this again. This set the standard.

This is my favorite strain and I can't find it anywhere anymore. This strain gives me such an uplifting feeling that I walk around smiling and talking to strangers. My heart will be broken if I never see it again..

Extreeeemely peppery so heads up. Didn’t like it at first (almost tasted like a cigarette to be honest). I ended up mixing this strain with lemon cherry runtz to reduce harshness, which made for an extremely interesting high. Really lucid and talkative, extremely functional high but with also feeling the head high of a good indica. Overall not my favorite to smoke alone but damn what a cool high.

This is the only strain I use. The vape cartridges I get taste like orange/diesel/cinnamon. It’s an unusual flavor profile at first but when you get used to it it’s absolutely delicious. I can hit it first thing in the morning and have a good day. I can take a few puffs on my lunch break and still hold a conversation with my boss, no anxiety, and still be productive. My favorite thing is when it gives me the giggles. I’ll be lost in my thoughts and realize I’ve been laughing to myself about something and usually don’t even remember what it was. I don’t really know the medicinal benefits because I was looking for something I could use regularly. I found that. Great for going out to run errands or for going to a bar or concert, great for sitting on the couch watching a movie or for reading, great in the morning, at night, and any time in between. I can’t recommend it enough.

I have very few absolute favorite strains. I do believe there could be significant strain, differences based on growers, which makes obvious sense. Red headed, Stranger, is possibly my all-time favorite strain. It is a perfect daytime or night time sativa, very uplifting, creative, yet, and extremely calm and attentive mood. I have paid significantly more just to obtain this strain as it’s so rare where I am from. Seems to be available in the Summer months in PA. If you have the option to try this, you really should. Even if you do not like sativa’s, this is not that kind.
