trichomeomom

This is probably the best plant I've ever had for knocking myself unconscious, but I take no joy in using it because it has a dark, brooding vibe that I find unpleasant. It also tastes nasty and has very harsh smoke, both of which make it hard to consume enough to get where I want to be--Sleepytown USA. I suppose baking with it or vaping oil made from it could work, but then there's that dark vibe...To look on the bright side, it could maybe be good for people who are into stoner metal or something? Anyhow, enough said---it's not my cup of tea.

I've had mixed results with this medicine, and I'm starting to realize that the key here is dosing yourself properly. Once the cannabinoid level in your system gets to where it needs to be (and there are cannabinoids galore in this sacred blossom), there's a chance you might experience the transcendent effects I achieved, which was like the rolling orgasm of Satan's own narcotics crossed with the presence of the Holy Spirit in all her resplendent array. This is what I imagine those great Colombian landraces like punto roja must be like, with the sun bringing everything out of a plant with the whole alphabetical array of THCs and CBDs locked into its code in equal measures. Serious healing.

Another option, of course, is to use the flower in moderation--a few pulls from a vape every few hours--to keep yourself pain-free and in decent spirits but still clear-headed throughout your busy day.

This might be the most effective "functional" strain for knocking out pain, lethargy, anxiety and crippling self-doubt--while maintaining a clear head and energy--of any I've tried. The 2:1 THC:CBD balance is comparable to Citrus Tango, a favorite daytime CBD strain, compared to which the effect of these flowers is dreamier and less penetrating/thoughtful. I notice none of that anxious edge that mixed CBD strains can sometimes have in low doses (although I just had a pint of ale so results could vary depending on current body chemistry) and of course flavor/cure/manicure is impeccable. It's hard to wrap my head around the idea that this is a low-cost line, as the flowers are as good as or better than the top-shelf of anyone else. I'm tempted to warn you of a certain lack of potency, but that's the tradeoff with high-CBD strains like this. It is what it is. If you want a potent, speedy sativa from Mark Lewis try the wi fi nigerian. This one is less for doing projects and more for functioning at a social event with good positive energy and the ability to think clearly.

This flower offers a hug of soft forgiveness right on the recalcitrant ol' dopamine receptors, which is just what the doctor ordered--my anxiety is calmed to a point where I can reflect without fear. I'm not sure why this has been rated as a "2" for strength--I rolled .3 grams of it in a RAW paper and smoked maybe half of that amount and I am thoroughly baked---my body is pillowy from the CBD and it feels like a refreshing wind is blowing through my head. What a great strain of cannabis! And I should also mention that I'm pretty much indifferent to flavor--unless it truly tastes like dog shit like Double Black, I'm only interested in the effect--but I did notice that this bud is extremely tasty, with sweet and zesty smoke and no bitterness at all.

All of the dispensaries in our city have something unique to offer, but Takoma Wellness is unquestionably my favorite. I thought about this the last time I went there--when I come out of this dispensary I always feel like I got what I need, not just what was on sale that day or what I went in there to buy, but I got just the kind of medicine my body is asking for right now because this place puts me in the right frame of mind to make those choices.

Maybe it's because the Kahns and their story are so humane and inspiring, or because this was my "home" dispensary back in the day, but to me this place is miraculous--it manages to be the largest, most efficient dispensary, and also the warmest and most loving.

Mazel Tov and Happy Fifth Anniversary!

When I tried Trainwreck I really didn't like it---that 30-minute racey/trippy/paranoid sativa trip and then CRASH into a slow, lumbering indica stone isn't what my system usually craves. But combined with the Hashplant (which must be one heck of a sticky sensation) the sativa effect of the Trainwreck contributes just a soupcon of exhilaration to the most delicious body relaxation. In other words, they go together splendidly. It reminds me of Pineapple Express (another trainwreck cross, now that I think of it) in that it combines anxiolytic with euphoric effects, but LCH employs a more robust and colorful indica effect. It's doesn't smell like much but I think this is one of the most potent strains I've tried, up there with Medijuana and Pinetrak for sheer effect-to-dollar ratio. Try a crumb and call me in the morning.

I can see why this is so popular! It comes on in a colorful wave of calm euphoria that doesn't overwhelm the mind, so it's great for deep thinking and creative endeavors as well as depression and pain. It lasts a good long time and the comedown is a gentle slope with very little fuzziness. I hope this becomes a permanent staple of the menus in DC because it is marvelous.

This reminds me of the herb a friend of mine grew. He asked friends for seeds of the heaviest, most couch-locking go-to-sleep indica they could find. We called it "doom metal" for the deep, slow, crunchy groove it laid down. This Night (Terror) OG is way stronger and less harsh than his, though I will say in terms of value medijuana might be the way to go if you are medicating pain. It's smoother, not as grip-like in its intensity, and more focused on the head than the body (in my experience).

This is a very medical strain. At initial onset the mind becomes clear, but without euphoria or exhilaration. Once the medicine settles in, it's easy to get sleepy. Good medicine for people who are medicating a bodily ailment and who want or need to remain mentally and emotionally unchanged by the herb they are using.

Aaaah, warm medicine in all my cracks and crannies! These tiny little buds of GDP warm up my nervous system to a lovely temperature. I feel relaxed, happy, like I'm taking a bath in warm warm honey. Fills in all my interstices. There is also a focused psychoactivity with lots of color. Great for watching a movie, worshipping Onan, napping.

This would be the perfect doob to pass around a raging party [of duly licensed Washington DC medical marijuana patients]. I am not in fact the owner of one of these beauties but man do I covet an entire wrapped gram of this marvelous strain for less than a double sawbuck. I have sampled the flower inside and it put me into a dreamy, mellow euphoria along the lines of GDP but with perhaps a shade more well-being and a shade less sheer pleasure. I wish Takoma had some of the buds--thickly blanketed in a rich fuzz of pale orange pistils, it is truly comely medicine.

This is a spiritual, uplifting delight from start to finish. There is an immediate feeling of harmony and of the beauty of the world and the pleasure of inhabiting one's own conscious mind that makes it my favorite strain for art or nature. It's also incredibly easy coming down and it leaves you energetic and clear-headed.

This is a nice mellow smoke with a unique, roasted-protein kind of flavor. A good plant to bring out for your friends who don't smoke very often because its purple color and Southeast Asian heritage are interesting to talk about and it's not all that strong or heady or stony. Some of its effects are imprecise and in this it reminds me of mid-grade, but I also experience nostalgia when I have that feeling (smoked a lot of middies over the years). I agree with the criticisms that have been voiced about its potency but I would add that it's a good one to buy a half-gram of just to keep around for the times you have a group of novice smokers over. Takoma gives you a fat half-gram, too, probably because it's not that popular.

I was really looking forward to trying this strain because of experienced westcoaster's effusive review and it's sad but I was a bit let down. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice strain that does what a sativa is supposed to do, but there was something about the way it slowed my thoughts down that I didn't like. It's a very cerebral and pain-relieving (and pleasure-producing) high, so if you have a headache or toothache this would certainly help. But because it isn't clear-headed at all (it's more like a film of pleasure over your thoughts) I prefer Amnesia Haze or Shackzilla for their stimulating effects and energy. This one could be good for the second smoke of the day, if the first has a steep "crash" effect after an hour or so that leaves your mind tired and achy. It'll rub that pain right out and I definitely understand experienced westcoaster's remark that this strain has a "wonderful mood".

Long-lasting and very pleasant, this did leave me with a somewhat addled head after a few hours. I toked some Amnesia Haze from a water pipe and it restored some of my mental edge for an hour or so, then it was on to indica for the rest of the evening.
