Live Resin: Live Resin is a form of cannabis extract that attempts to preserve the complex terpene profiles of cannabis plants by using flash-freezing as part of the extraction process. The problem facing the makers of cannabis extract products is that traditional forms of extraction often substantially degrade the terpene content. Of course, a complex terpene profile of a cannabis plant is crucial to the degree to which the user is likely to consider it an effective and enjoyable product. Not only do traditional methods of extraction effectively reduce the plant’s original aroma and flavors, but they also reduce the product’s potency. The usual method of extraction involves curing - cut cannabis plants are hung to dry until all moisture is removed. However, it is at this stage of the process that many of the important terpenes are lost before they can be extracted. Some cannabis producers have sought to address the problem of how to ensure the full flavors and aromas can be transferred from a cannabis plant directly to the consumer. To ensure loss of as little as possible of the original characteristics of each cannabis plant are lost, producers have sought to develop more refined methods of extraction. To this end, Live Resin concentrates are produced through the flash-freezing of cannabis plants immediately after they are harvested. The plants are then kept at very low temperatures while the extraction occurs. The results are overwhelmingly positive. Not only does scientific testing demonstrate that a greater range of terpenes are transferred into the Live Resin extract, but Live Resin also pasts the taste test, with cannabis consumers noticing a clear difference. In short, Live Resin is noticeable more potent with lighter, fresher flavors. You can find more Live Resin products at, Dispensary

The aim was to create a strain with equal THC and CBD levels. The outcome is a strain that is rapidly becoming a great favorite of the medical cannabis community and is an increasingly popular product at online dispensaries.

A well-balanced high is produced by the even mixture of sativa and indica. Gelato is perfect for those who wish to experience elements of both stimulation and sedation as it combines a relaxing body-high with a cerebral-buzz.
Durban Poison: With most commercially available strains developed carefully in almost laboratory-like conditions, it is increasingly difficult to find anything resembling a ‘pure’ sativa or indica. To varying degrees, it is hybrids that stock the shelves of cannabis stores and online dispensaries. Durban Poison is a welcome change to the homogeneity. It is not a strain that is the result of complex crossbreeding, rather it is closely related to the sativas that grew naturally in South Africa. Durban Poison, however, is not simply interesting genetically, many experts argue that it is one of the best medical strains available and produces a clean, pure and pleasant high. The high is very typical of sativas. Users find Durban Poison is ideal for encouraging creativity, sociability and a positive outlook. It can be used to energize users who are feeling lethargic, migraine sufferers and anyone who has nausea. Durban Poison is a classic marijuana strain and should be on the wishlist of any cannabis connoisseur. Moreover, it's incredibly high-quality is evident to those who use it and Durban Poison is regularly at the top of cannabis outlets’ bestseller lists.
King Tut: King Tut is a rarely seen strain that you may not always be able to find easily in cannabis stores or online dispensaries. It is a sativa-dominant strain that includes AK-47 in its lineage and is most well-known for the fact that THC levels can reach an astounding 27%, making it perhaps the most potent sativa in the world. Needless to say, this is not a strain of cannabis that is recommended for novice users. It does, however, have many admirers who are big fans of its effects. As you might expect, the effects of this sour and fruiting smelling strain are the energizing and invigorating sensations to be expected from a sativa. King Tut is a good choice for those looking for a burst of creativity and especially for sparking social situations into life - King Tut serves as a great party guest! It is also taken by users in order to control inflammation, painful conditions and depression. However, all users should take into account its high potency which can produce racy rather than relaxing results.
Maui Wowie: The name Maui Wowie goes right back to the 1960s and the Hawaiian cannabis industry. For much of the last fifty years demand has outsrtipped supply and this strain has been difficult to track down. Now, however, Mau Wowie (often referred to by budtenders as just Maui or Waui) is stocked in cannabis outlets and across the online dispensary scene. Maui Wowie is well-regarded for its tropical vibes - a smooth, sweet, citrusy scent that have hints of pine. The flavor is similarly pleasing with clear notes of lemon. Maui Wowie has built its excellent reputation on what can be described as a ‘controlled sativa high’. The high is fast-acting but dissipates fairly quickly. While it lasts, users are uplifted and energised and many report feeling more creative. Maui Wowie does not give any of the heavy or fuzzy feelings of other strains. Instead, users are able to focus on tasks. Although Maui Wowie is not the most appropriate strain for combatting pain or inflammation, it does appear to be well-suited to relieving conditions such as anxiety and depression.
Amnesia Haze: Amnesia Haze was developed by Soma Seeds in Amsterdam and is a sativa-dominant (70/30) hybrid. In 2004 it was awarded first prize at the High Times Cannabis Cup and then in 2012 it won first place in the sativa category. Amnesia Haze is an expertly-crafted hybrid that is regularly among budtenders most recommended strains. It is available from cannabis outlets and online dispensaries. Amnesia Haze is famous for tightly curled buds that are covered in thickly resinous, honey-colored trichomes. As a plentiful source of resin, Amnesia Haze is often used for producing hashes, oils and other extractions. User describe the exotic fragrance as containing elements of lime and toffee. THC content is up to 22% and most users report that Amnesia Haze has powerful effects and novice users are warned not to over-indulge. The potency of the sativa inspires many creative impulses and greater focus and mental clarity. Amnesia Haze is often used in an outdoor setting and intensifies the colors and sounds of nature. The positive outlook Amnesia Haze inspires means it is often used to combat stress and anxiety.
Chernobyl: Chernobyl was developed by crossbreeding Jack the Ripper, Trinity and Trainwreck. The result is a sativa-dominant (80/20) hybrid that has become well-known for its potent and positive effects. Chernobyl is often recommended by budtenders as the go-to strain for anyone looking for an uplifting high. It is also one of the best-tasting cannabis strains around and is available from cannabis outlets and online dispensaries. Once experienced, the distinctive mixture of earthy and lime aromas that Chernobyl produces is difficult to forget. This is only reinforced by the extremely strong fruity flavors the strain releases when smoked. Many users claim they taste sour lemons, while others describe a cherry tang hitting the roof of their mouth. Chernobyl is a potent sativa with THC levels of between 16% and 20%. The wide-ranging high lingers, lasting up to three hours. Users universally agree that the main sensation is one of happiness. Chernobyl has the wonderful quality of effectively releasing the user from anything that might be weighing them down. The uplifting effects are also motivational allowing users to complete tasks and be generally more productive. Chernobyl is often compared to drinking several cups of strong coffee. The impulse of physical energy Chernobyl inspires is accompanied by calm thoughts and clear ideas.
Agent Orange: Agent Orange was bred by TGA Subcool Seeds using three well-known strains - Jack's Cleaner, Space Queen, and Orange Skunk. This created a sativa-dominant (75/25) hybrid which has a signature aroma and is known for its cerebral effects. Agent Orange is one of the most reliable and well-liked sativas around. Due to its potency (Agent Orange can contain 25% THC) budtenders usually recommend it to more experienced marjiuana users. Agent Orange is easily recognisable due to a sweet aroma that is reminiscent of citrus fruit and undercut by dark, spicy tones. On combustion, Agent Orange displays more earthy odors mixed with pine. The high THC content of Agent Orange is evidenced by the covering of gray-white, crystalline trichomes. Amber hairs also cover the buds which are predominantly pale green but can also become purple or maroon. As a mixture of sativa and indica influences, Agent Orange can produce a dual body and cerebral high. However, most of the time the sativa is certainly dominant and the mental-buzz that affects the user can be psycho-active. The euphoric sensations are not long-lasting but they are often intense. Experienced users are able to manage the effects of Agent Orange to be more productive, but they can be disorientating. An Agent Orange high will quickly slide into a period of relaxation, calming the body. For experienced users, this is certainly a strain that should be investigated at cannabis stores and online dispensaries.
Black Diamond: Black Diamond was developed by crossbreeding two famous marijuana strains - Blackberry and Diamond OG. The result is a very potent, indica-dominant hybrid. As well as possessing a high THC content, Black Diamond is also well-known for being extremely effective. For this reason, budtenders are likely to advise caution, especially for novice cannabis users. For those who are more experienced, however, Black Diamond offers the chance to sample a serious indica strain. Black Diamond is available from both online dispensaries and cannabis stores. Black Diamond has a slightly unusual appearance with long curling flowers and leaves that exhibit sharp contrasts of green and purple. The dense buds are covered in a thick blanket of resinous trichomes, so thick that they can be difficult to break up. A grinder is essential. Black Diamond maintains the strong blackberry aroma of its lineage, although more tart and acidic than the scent associated with Blackberry. Black Diamond also gives off an unmistakable and strong earthy aroma. When ground the buds can produce a rich, nutty scent. Some have even compared the scent of Black Diamond to Cuban cigars. The smoke is pleasantly smooth. The high from Black Diamond can be intense, with colors and sounds altered and amplified. Euphoria can melt into giddiness and laughter is not uncommon. This cerebral-buzz is invigorating and energizing. However, the sensation soon mellows and the body relaxes and feels calm. The sedative nature of the latter part of the high means Black Diamond is sometimes used to combat insomnia and anxiety.
UK Cheese: During the 90s in Britain UK Cheese was bred from a particularly smelly phenotype of Skunk #1. The name is self-explanatory with the strain easily identified by a characteristic musty-cheese pong. Although not everyone is likely to find this scent appealing, UK Cheese has garnered a solid reputation as a fantastically well-balanced strain. UK Cheese is a sativa-dominant hybrid with very high THC levels that can reach as much as 23%. The buds on UK Cheese are usually cone-shaped and covered with resin-rich trichomes. It also sports an attractive contrast between light-green leaves and bright orange pistils. But, of course, it is the smell, or perhaps stench, of the plants that UK Cheese is best known for. The highly pungent odor of blue cheese is undercut by dank, earthy tones. While users may enjoy the scent of UK Cheese, many are less enamoured by the flavor. The taste is very sour and for some can stick in the throat. Marijuana connoisseurs, however, are wise enough not to be put off by the flavor as the high from UK Cheese quickly makes users quickly forget about the taste. As a balanced hybrid, UK Cheese produces a delightfully even combination of mind and body relaxation. As well as sensations of deep calm, UK Cheese also produces clear-headed thoughts and the energy and creativity to take on a range of tasks. UK Cheese also has a number of medical benefits with users claiming the strain can calm muscles spasms, soothe headaches and migraines and reduce stress.
Jack Frost: Jack Frost was created by crossing three famous strains - Jack Herer, White Widow and Northern Lights. The result is a sativa-dominant hybrid that is predominantly known for its invigorating effects. Jack Frost’s reputation for helping users feel upbeat has meant it is frequently associated with fun and has seen it become part of the marijuana mainstream and one of the most popular strains around. It is likely to be easily available in both cannabis outlets and online dispensaries. The energetic effects of Jack Frost partly derives from its high THC content of up to 23%. The high is characterized by feelings of tranquility, but in particular, waves of happiness. Users almost universally agree that Jack Frost is a social strain, ideal for engaging in conversations, whether they be philosophical or lighthearted. Jack Frost is also often used for activities, such as being out in nature, a meal and a movie, or simply partying. The high tends to last about three hours. Jack Frost is recommended for anyone suffering from social anxiety. Its sativa-like, positive, uplifting effects also make it ideal for those dealing with depression or stress. Jack Frost is also used to help ease gastrointestinal concerns, such as nausea or lack of appetite.
Lemon Kush: Master Kush is one of the most well-known and respected cannabis strains, appreciated, not only for its outstanding quality, but also its vigorous potency. It was, therefore, an obvious choice when growers were looking to cross Lemon Joy, a strain marked by its pleasant taste and aroma. Lemon Kush was the result and it has to be assumed the growers got exactly what they wanted - a high-strength, high-quality strain with a taste and fragrance to entice marijuana lovers everywhere. Lemon Kush sets out to satisfy the mind, the body and the senses. To experience how well it does this, check out your local cannabis outlet or online dispensary.

The potency of Lemon Kush is also apparent in the thick, resinous buds that are covered by crystals. Lemon Kush produces a strong body-high, resulting in feelings of physical relaxation. However, there are definite sativa influences in this strain and any danger of couchlock is prevented by a clear dose of mental stimulation. The overall result is a well-rounded high that encourages users to be sociable, communicative and often very giggly. Users often report feeling energized by Lemon Kush and it is a good strain for completing tasks. Despite its potency, Lemon Kush is sometimes said to be a good choice for less experienced users as the high tends to be manageable. It is also frequently used by those wishing relief from chronic pain and to help anyone suffering from stress to relax. All in all, Lemon Kush is an excellent all round strain which manages to combine both a great flavor and an enticing potency.
Violator Kush: Violator Kush is an indica-dominant (80/20) hybrid that has developed a reputation as the perfect strain for simply chilling out. This soothing marijuana strain is becoming increasingly well-known for producing enjoyable effects and this popularity ensures it can easily be found in cannabis stores and online dispensaries. As well as having high levels of THC, Violator Kush also contains a significant quantity of CBD. Violator Kush is not one of the strains with a sweet taste. However, for those users who prefer something a little more spicy, Violator Kush could be perfect. An intense aroma with tones of Kush-like earth and pine, Violator Kush is easily recognisable for a pungent spicy pepper that may even cause you to catch your breath. Users often find that vaping Violator Kush helps bring out the pine and pepper notes and enhances the flavor when inhaling. The high Violator Kush creates is recognisably indica-like. The body is quickly relaxed and stress and tension is relieved by soothing waves of euphoria. Tranquility is the word users most often associate with Violator Kush and it is an ideal strain for kicking back at home. The sativa influences, however, are present and this mental stimulation works to keep the user alert and focussed. One often mentioned advantage of Violator Kush is that, when used in moderation, the effects do not feel uncontrollable. Violator Kush is a part of the Budget Buds lineup, therefore, great for casual use, enabling the user to relax. The high levels of CBD also mean that Violator Kush has several medical applications. Users take Violator Kush to provide relief for a wide-range of painful symptoms. Its use can also work to help manage the symptoms of stress and depression. Insomnia can also be treated with Violator Kush.
Sensi Star: Of the hundreds, perhaps thousands of strains available in cannabis outlets and online dispensaries, there are a few that have slowly garnered a reputation as ‘premium strains’, Sensi Star is one of these. This reputation has been won over a quarter of a century, during which the strain has been improved, won awards and won over fans. It helps that Sensi Star is expertly bred and possesses extremely potent levels of THC that can reach an astounding 26%. Not only is Sensi Star one of the most powerful strains you will ever get your hands on, it also boasts an impressive terpene profile that lends itself to an exciting aroma and taste. Fresh pine is combined with stimulating spices to create one of the most recognisable marijuana scents out there. The appearance of Sensi Star is also impressive, dark green and purple plants with buds that are thickly covered in crystals. With very high THC levels, it is no surprise that the body-relaxation caused by Sensi Star is pretty powerful. Users will feel an immediate wave of relaxation travel throughout their body. This is coupled with a mental stimulus that may be a little overwhelming for very inexperienced users. This strong cerebral high will give way to more soothing sensations that happily sedate the user. Sensi Star is known to be a popular choice for countering the symptoms of stress and anxiety. It can also be used to fight chronic pain.
Master Kush: Master Kush is straight from the canon of classic marijuana strains and one of the most famous cannabis names of all time. It can trace its lineage all the way back to the Hindu Kush mountains and maintains that wild Kush potency. However, Master Kush is not some basic, unrefined strain, over many years successive growers have perfected its genetics to produce a strain that is ideal for the modern cannabis enthusiast. For the last quarter of a century Master Kush has been incredibly popular and it is sure to be stocked by cannabis stores and online dispensaries. Although clearly a descendent of the indica Hindu Kush, the refining process has involved the introduction of some sativa elements. This is important to note as it means Master Kush provokes an alert focus that is not normally associated with pure indicas. Master Kush does possess the earthy, pungent aromas of the Kush varieties. Be warned: the Kush scent will quickly fill any confined space, it is not a discrete strain! But Master Kush is not simply earthy, there is also a sweet flavor detectable when smoked. Users report feeling a strong body-high with relaxation spreading throughout the limbs. Happiness comes over the user in waves and, as with many indicas, there may be feelings of lethargy and sleepiness. As previously noted, however, Master Kush does inspire attention and focus and may have energizing effects. Master Kush is used to relieve the symptoms of stress, insomnia and depression, as well as managing chronic pain.
Jack Skellington: Jack Skellington is the pride and joy of the breeder TGA and was created by cross-breeding two well-known strains - Killer Queen and Jack the Ripper. Killer Queen has a reputation for producing an energizing high with a cerebral-buzz, that can lead to increased mental clarity or, in some instances, a serious bout of introspection. Jack the Ripper, meanwhile, is named after its infamous potency. Despite this rather ominous lineage, Jack Skellington is a favorite amongst those cannabis connoisseurs who like their weed to be strong and pungent. It is available from many cannabis outlets and online dispensaries. Jack Skellington produces attractive buds that are usually heavy with resinous trichomes. This strain is well-known for its pungent odor which can fill a large room with its powerful diesel and citrus fragrance. On grinding the nugs, users will breath in a lighter, sweeter and more fruity aroma. The taste is similarly sweet with tangs of citrus. Jack Skellington does not have the very high THC levels of other popular strains. However, the fact that it is a sativa-dominant strain means that its psychoactive properties can seem just as, and perhaps more intense than many other strains. Users are likely to experience a strong cerebral-buzz, during which colors and sounds distort. Jack Skellington typically invigorates and energizes, uplifting and boosting the user. Euphoric experiences are common whilst maintaining mental clarity and focussed thoughts. For the recreational user it is clear that Jack Skellington can have many benefits, although it is worth noting that this is not a marijuana strain that will aid sleep. However, it has been reported that Jack Skellington can be used to control seizures.
Gorilla Glue: You may find cannabis outlets and online dispensaries refer to Gorilla Glue as Gorilla Glue #4, or simply GG4, as the growers were sued by a glue company not appreciating the link with marijuana. Whatever it is called, Gorilla Glue is a serious cannabis strain with high THC levels, distinctive flavors and an even profile. In fact, Gorilla Glue could be described as a perfectly balanced strain, and is classified as a 50/50 sativa-indica hybrid. Gorilla Glue has a notably pleasant fragrance which combines pine and lemon notes with a unique chocolate aroma. The potency of Gorilla Glue is indicated by a skunky undercurrent. The buds of Gorilla Glue are various shades of green and are thickly covered with orange hairs and sticky, resinous trichomes. It is these trichomes that put the glue in Gorilla Glue and will likely clog up your scissors. The trichome are also responsible for Gorilla Glue having an astounding 30% THC content. This is the strength that puts the Gorilla into Gorilla Glue and it is not a beast that should be messed with by novice cannabis users. The high from Gorilla Glue combines elements characteristic of sativa and indica. A cerebral-buzz produces mental stimulation and feelings of positivity. Meanwhile, a soothing body-high washes away stress and brings tranquility. The relaxation can leave users locked to the couch, although for some users the sativa effects may be more pronounced. It is important to gauge how Gorilla Glue effects each user. For some, it may be a strain for daytime use, for others it might be best in preparation for a good night’s sleep.
Grease Monkey: For those cannabis connoisseurs who would like to try something new, Grease Monkey could be the perfect choice for something a little different. Grease Monkey is an indica-dominant hybrid that has a high THC content and a unique flavor and taste and very different experience. If this sounds like a train you would like to try, check out cannabis stores and online dispensaries for Grease Monkey. Grease Monkey is an attractive-looking plant with bright green indica-like buds that turn a deep purple as the plant matures. Long, pale green leaves surround flowers which have bright orange pistils and are densely covered with crystalline trichomes. The scent of Grease Monkey is pungent and is easily detectable. The aroma is classically skunk, often described as chemical or diesel. It is a scent that will not appeal to everyone, but the undertones of sweetness, often likened to grape, make it a unique fragrance. Grease Monkey also has a very different taste. Predictably strong, Grease Monkey manages to mix the taste of dank diesel with a sugary vanilla. For those who appreciate a ‘complex’ taste, Grease Monkey might be the strain for you. On top of all this, Grease Monkey packs a pungent punch with THC levels as high as any other strain available in your cannabis outlet or online dispensary. THC levels of around 30% have been recorded. With this level of THC users might be expecting an almost instant couch-lock, but the high from Grease Monkey comes on slowly and, while it does involve a considerable body-relaxation, users should expect some cerebral stimulation that serves to keep them alert and focussed.
Chemo: Chemo is undoubtedly an odd name for a strain of marijuana. The story is that this strain was developed at the University of British Columbia, Canada during the 1960s. Whatever its origins, Chemo is a very unusual strain and one that many cannabis connoisseurs would like to sample. Cannabis outlets and online dispensaries are likely to stock Chemo. Chemo’s fragrance has been described as ‘organic’. It combines the pungent aroma of pine with more earthy undertones. When smoked, the sweet pine notes are most obvious on inhalation; when exhaled the strain exhibits much more of an earthy pungency. The THC levels of Chemo are extremely high, with a remarkable 29% being measured. This, combined with Chemo’s profile of 100% indica create a very particular kind of high. Although some users claim to experience a degree of mental stimulation, it is quite clear that this is not what Chemo is about. Perhaps surprisingly, the effects of Chemo come on slowly, creeping up on the user But eventually, the user will be overcome by its strongly sedative effects . A conclusive body-high is usual, with the user feeling very tranquil. Couch-lock is not unusual and Chemo is a strain to take at the end of the day, or at least when there is little urgent to do. The strong, sedative effects of Chem mean it has the potential to limit the symptoms of painful medical conditions.
Durban Poison: These days cannabis outlets and online dispensaries are stocked with strains that have undergone years of successive cross-breeding to refine the strain and make it finely-tuned to the needs of the market. Durban Poison, so the story goes, is a little different. Instead of a complex lineage involving the budtenders of Amsterdama and California, Durban Poison has a background based very much in the ‘wild’ sativas of South Africa. The big difference is that, unlike most commercially available strains, Durban Poison is not genetically based on Hindu Kush indicas. Instead, Durban Poison might be as close as it is possible to come to a ‘pure’ strain of sativa. The result is a strain that users have reported to find particularly well-suited for being sociable and creative, as well as producing a very positive vibe. Durban Poison is, therefore, commonly used in order to invigorate users and may be used to combat conditions, such as lethargy and depression. It has also been found useful in the management of nausea and migraines.
Gas Mask: There are pungent strains, there are very pungent strains and then there are those which require a gas mask. Gas Mask originated in the Pacific Northwest through the cross-breeding of Cherry Pie and Alien Kush F2. As well as its overwhelming aroma, Gas Mask is known for its powerful and persistent high, important to keep in mind when deciding when and where to use it. Gas Mask is currently stinking out many cannabis outlets and online dispensaries. If somehow you don’t smell it before seeing it, Gas Mask can be recognised by its distinctive heart-shaped, pale green nugs. These can have a deep purple coloration and sport a mass of thick amber hairs, as well as a thick covering of silvery trichomes. Gas Mask’s aroma is known mainly for is dark diesel pungency that can quickly fill any given space, but within that fragrance there are hints for fruit, with many users detecting ripe cherries, while others pointing to citrus scents. Gas Mask does not only have a strong smell, its high punches hard and punches heavy. The inca-dominance produces a powerful body-high that numbs the mind before numbing the body. Stress melts away as the limbs relax and users can be left completely sedated for two hours These effects make Gas Mask an ideal strain to use in order to relieve the symptoms of depression as well as lessening chronic pain.
Green Crack: Green Crack doesn’t have a name most people would automatically associate with high-quality. Buf don’t let the name dissuade you. Despite the rather negative connotations Green Crack is actually a well-respected sativa-dominant strain that is a favorite of both recreational and medicinal users. It originated in Southern California and rapidly became a favorite for those cannabis connoisseurs in the know. Now it’s available in cannabis outlets and online dispensaries across the country. As a sativa-dominant strain, Green Crack plants tend to grow tall and is a quick grower. Green Crack has green buds covered with orange and blue hairs.

This slowly melts into a dreamy, enjoyable high. Although fast-acting, the high from Green Crack does not last long. Green Crack is commonly used to help alleviate the symptoms of depression and fatigue.
Green Thai: Southeast Asia is home to some of the most potent sativas on the planet and, naturally, the region has been of interest for breeders for many years. On one such pilgrimage, one of the major seed companies, Green House, brought back the plants that would form the breeding stock of Green Thai. It is believed that they used both Thai and Laotian strains. The result of their efforts was a hybrid, dominated to a large extent, by sativa (85/15). The moderate THC levels mean this strain is an excellent choice for many cannabis users and is well-suited to many different occasions. This great tasting, exotic strain is now available from cannabis stores and online dispensaries. Green Thai plants are usually very tall and can be recognised by fresh green buds which have a covering of orange-yellow hairs. The trichomes can seem like a thin coating of amber. Green Thai is known for its extremely enticing odour which can conjure up tropical notes of spices, cinnamon and nuts. The sativa influences in Green House create an uplifting high with a positive, cerebral-buzz. The mind is likely to feel invigorated, and this heady state may well lend itself to increased productivity, more inspired creativity, or simply greater socialisation and bouts of giggles. This initial euphoria is slowly replaced by a heavier relaxation that brings the user gently down. Sativa dominant strains, such as Green House can prompt some introspection and users need to monitor their intake. Green House is an ideal strain to use early in the day. The effects of Green House have been found to help ease the symptoms of a number of medical conditions, including depression, stress and chronic pain.
La Confidential: While most commercially available marijuana strains are hybrids - a blend, to some degree, of sativa and indica influences - LA Confidential is marketed as something a little different. LA Confidential, it is claimed, is unique because it is a pure indica. There are many cannabis aficionados who would question such a statement, arguing that all strains available today in cannabis stores or online dispensaries have been crossbred to such a degree they are inevitably hybrid forms with both elements of indica and sativa. Others would state that the distinction itself is meaningless. However the argument is framed, one thing is for sure, LA Confidential is a different kind of cannabis strain and one that all experienced cannabis users should try at least once. The cannabis community clearly agrees, with LA Confidential winning numerous awards in the last decade. Despite hailing from Southern California, it is clear that LA Confidential has its deep roots in the mountains of Afghanistan. The classic Kush skunky aroma is immediately apparent. When inhaled, LA Confidential has a pleasing smooth texture with strong pine scents. The dark green buds are covered in fiery orange pistils, while the trichomes are icy white. LA Confidential is likely to stand out in any dispensary. The thick covering of resin means that LA Confidential can be easily used to make hash. The THC content of LA Confidential is over 20% and the effects can be very sedative. Surprisingly, for an indica, LA Confidential inspires mental stimulation and uplifting vibes are likely to accompany the sleepy feelings. LA Confidential is best suited to the evening and may cause a serious case of the munchies.
Lemon Meringue: The recipe for Lemon Meringue is to combine one well-loved strain, Cookies and Cream, with another, Lemon Skunk. Lemon Meringue originated in California and has since found loyal users in Colorado. With its sweet, dessert-like flavors and energizing high, Lemon Meringue is rapidly increasing its popularity in cannabis stores and online dispensaries all across the country. Lemon Meringue’s sativa-dominance is very apparent from its appearance. It is usually a tall plant with long, bright green buds that are fluffy and display a covering of equally bright orange hairs. The smell is, of course, very reminiscent of the sweet and sour of lemon, but you will also detect undertones of nut and the telltale hints of soil and skunk. These darker, skunky flavors come through more strongly when inhaled, as does a reminder of the strain’s Cookies and Cream lineage, with a nutty, doughy taste. Users describe the effects of Lemon Meringue as ‘motivational’. Its energizing influence can be used for physical activity. However, most utilise the intensified experience to listen to music or watch a movie. While Lemon Meringue has the tangy, sugary taste of its namesake, it differs in one important respect - rather than helping pile on the pounds, this strain of cannabis is said to help users burn calories.

Purple Haze is a classic marijuana strain with an iconic name. Despite its fame, there have been times when Purple Haze has been difficult to track down, so if you find it in an online dispensary or cannabis stores, it's perhaps a good idea to make the most of it.

Some users have reported experiencing dry eyes and a cotton mouth. There have also been recorded instances of Romulan causing dizziness and headaches. However, the most common side-effect is a powerful attack of the munchies and users are wise to stock some snacks. Romulan is an ideal strain to help combat insomnia. It is also used to manage chronic pain and to lessen the symptoms of stress and anxiety.
White Rhino: The Nirvana Seed Company has its roots in the grow shops of 1980s Amsterdam and built a reputation gathering some of the highest quality strains from around the world is available at GanjaExpress. They then produced their own branded versions. One such re-packaged strain is ‘Medicine Man’, although a well-regarded strain it is generally regarded as inferior to the original - White Rhino. White Rhino was developed by Greenhouse Seeds which bred a more heavily indica version of the famously potent White Widow. To achieve this they crossed it with an Afghani Kush, which increased the yield and heightened the indica effects. White Rhino is not known as having a particular outstanding or distinctive scent. Generally, it smells earthy with some woody undertones. The flavor is usually described as being hashy, though some users may detect the sweet and sour taste of lemons.

Sour Patch Kids: At one time the name Sour Patch Kids probably sounded fun and irreverent. Indeed it is, part of the Budget Buds line-up, back then, advertising standards were the least of bartender's concerns, but now, in a new regulatory environment, it suddenly looks ill-advised and commericially inviable. In 2016 the Oregon Liquor Control Commission outlawed 14 marijuana strains as their names could appear to be targeting children and Sour Patch Kids now looks like it may be problematic. The name derives from this strain’s lineage, which includes Sour Kush and Kimbo Kush. The taste is, naturally, sour but also sweet and much like berry-flavored candy. The other notable feature of Sour Patch Kids is the incredibly high THC content of over 21%, but which can reach an unbelievable 31%. The leaves of Sour Patch Kids are small and bright green and covered with orange pistils. Medium-sized flowers house the feathery buds typical of sativa strains. Silver colored trichomes coat the buds in a gluey sheen, making the buds difficult to break up without a grinder. Good quality Sour Patch Kids will have the odor of fresh blueberries with undertones of citrus, pine and earth. When inhaled, Sour Patch Kids is generally less pleasant, a harsh, chemically stench can sometimes make the eyes water. As you might expect from such a potent strain, Sour Patch Kids can be pungent and is not a good choice is you need to be discreet. Sour Patch Kids is a slow-onset strain with the user gradually experiencing a more vivid appreciation of their surrounding environment. Experienced cannabis users are likely to enjoy this altering of the perceptions but it may not be suitable for novices. Users may like to utilize the high by taking a walk, listening to music or simply chatting. However, it does has invigorating elements that may help in the completion of tasks. With greater doses the sedative elements become more pronounced and users may find themselves sitting down and being less active. However, it is worth noting that the sativa influence in Sour Patch Kids does not make is a great strain for ending the day and is better enjoyed during the morning or afternoon.

Death Star does not only ease the body, but also calms the mind, resulting in a pleasant, positive outlook. In higher doses Death Star has the potential to put the user heavily into their couch, for this reason Death Star may not be suitable for novice users and should be consumed later in the day.
Nuken: Often cannabis users assume that in order to gain potency they have to sacrifice great taste. Nuken is one of those strains that proves this is not true along with a lineup of Budget Buds. Nuken is an extremely potent strain but from its scent and taste you could be forgiven for assuming it was a mid-range strain. With Nuken the user gets pot that is as sweet and delicious as candy with a powerful and impressive high. Nuken was developed in Canada by Cash Crop Ken using God Bud, a strain that was won several awards with Shishkaberry. The outcome is a classic hybrid which has become a firm favorite of cannabis connoisseurs in Canada and the Northwest US.

Blue Cheese: It was perhaps inevitable that eventually someone would have the idea of combining the popular strains Blueberry and Cheese.

Perhaps most importantly, Blue Cheese maintains the iconic aroma of a bowl of fresh blueberries and blends it with the musky tones of Cheese. Blue Cheese is, therefore, one of the most interesting cannabis strains out there, in terms of scent and flavor.

Shake offers a relatively lengthy high that becomes blissfully lazy while avoiding the heavy sedation that some more potent strains create. Overall, the Shake experience is relaxing and mellow, and with an even weight of indica and sativa effects, it feels well-rounded and balanced.
Cookie Dough: Cookie Dough is one of the many offspring of the illustrious Girl Scout Cookies. GSC is much in demand as breeders value its capacity to produce potent strains. Cookie Dough is one such strain that has inherited the high potency genes and combines them with an evenly balanced high.

Thin Mint Cookies: If you wanted to pick two cannabis strains that could be described as bonafide classics, OG Kush and Durban Poison would be solid selections. Both are regarded by cannabis connoisseurs as high-quality strains and their positions as two of the best strains of all time is cemented by the many awards they have been given. Cannabis users in general have an almost reverence for OG Kush and Durban Poison, in fact, OG Kush can make a viable claim to be the most popular strain of all time. OG Kush remains, one of the most potent indicas around and is also available at BMWO. Its heavy Kush-high is almost the benchmark for indicas everywhere. Indeed, OG Kush can be said to have marked the change to a new period of good quality weed. Durban Poison, on the other hand, is in many ways the opposite, a raw, unrefined sativa. What then, if these two strains were crossbred? The answer to that question is Thin Mint Cookies. Thin Mint Cookies is a finely balanced hybrid, the Durban Poison sativa providing the perfect counterweight to the mighty indica Kush. However, this does not mean that Thin Mint Cookies has had its potency cancelled out. THC levels are regularly recorded at higher than 20%. The taste of TMC really does rise to the level of cookies. When inhaling and exhaling a surprising but clear taste of minty terpenes are easily detectable. Thin Mint Cookies quickly relieves stress and brings waves of euphoria for the user.
Butterscotch: Butterscotch is primarily known as a medical strain with a beautifully sweet flavor profile and interesting and enjoyable effects. THC levels of around 18% mean that Butterscotch should be considered a potent strain, but it is perhaps the CBD content of over 2% and an odor that is almost freakishly similar to some bizarre blend of butterscotch and hash, that the strain is primarily known for. Well-regarded throughout cannabis circles, Butterscotch can be found in cannabis stores and Canadian online dispensaries. A bag of Budget Buds Butterscotch nugs exhibit a range of colors, from deep orange to caramel and pale olive and, perhaps more noticeably, will exude a distinctive and forceful odor of butter.

Butterscotch can also be used to treat muscle spasms, depression, anxiety and stress.
Forbidden Fruit: Developed by Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds, Forbidden Fruit has rather slipped under the radar for many cannabis connoisseurs.

To create Forbidden Fruit, Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds crossbred a hybrid, Cherry Pie, with a sativa called Tangie. Forbidden Fruit is an indica-dominant strain Budget Buds (70/30) that certainly also has elements of sativa present. THC levels are another reason one might expect this strain to be better known.

While not always as widespread as some other strains, Forbidden Fruit can be found in some cannabis outlets and many Canadian online dispensaries.

Jet Fuel: There is a little debate over the question of where Jet Fuel first launched, some say it was created by the experts at 303 Seeds in Aspen, Colorado, others maintain that it first took off in Southern California, a product of Dr Greenthumb. Wherever the location, it is clear that Jet Fuel derives from the crossbreeding of the famous Budget Buds, Sour Diesel strain.

Jet Fuel has a THC content of around 15% and the high gives users an energetic, heady experience which gently fades into a soothing, relaxed state.
White Lightning: White Widow is undeniably one of the most important and influential cannabis strains of all time from Buy My Weed Online. Developed by Green House Seeds, it became a staple of the coffee houses of Amsterdam, well-loved for its uplifting and invigorating high.

Finally, White Lightning leads its users towards a soothing period of relaxation.
Orange Crush: It is generally believed that Orange Crush was developed in Canada by the BC Growers Association. The lineage of Orange Crush is likely to involve the classic cannabis strain, Blueberry and California Orange. Certainly this would tally with the enjoyable fruitiness that Orange Crush exhibits. It would also mean that Orange Crush includes in its lineage two of the most traditionally respected strains around, with California Orange being a major strain since the 1950s and Blueberry going all the way back to the 1970s. Together, they have created a distinctive looking strain with a remarkable flavor.
