I love Blue Dream. It's the perfect blend of "Holy shit I'm high" and not being couch-locked.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Funny that's my Dad's favorite strain, too

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Another good classic. Blue dream is great.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Blue Dream is my absolute favorite. Nothing quite feels as nice as BD. Mimosa is a close second though

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Same. And for the same reason. Tangerine dream is also great.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

One time my weed store got some stuff in that wasnt labeled correctly so they just called it mystery kush. And it was the best weed ever ! Was sad when they ran out.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sour Diesel.

Not the fanciest choice, but every time I get it I enjoy it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Oh for sure. It's a classic for a reason. Just recently had some Sour Diesel BX live rosin that was fanfuckingtastic

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Same I do also enjoy the Diesel Thai varient, great high.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Blue dream. Always delicious!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Green Crack is always a solid choice for me. Smoked a lot of it in college (friends grew a ton) and it’s one of the few heavy sativas that don’t break my brain.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'd buy it in a heart beat if I saw it on my local menu board.

Northern Lights, it was the first strain I ever smoked. The smell and taste of it is just pure heaven.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I second Northern Lights. It's the perfect smoke. Tastes fresh and herbaceous with no bitterness or acridity, gives a nice light heady high that can lead to sessions of 'the gigs', low on couch lock factor so you can smoke on the go without an energy hit.

I've been smoking for 20 years and first tried Northern back in '05, it's been my favourite smoke ever since. Only found it once in the last 8 years, and now when it happens it feels like catching a glimpse of a unicorn.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I've still never had the original and I've been looking for a long while. I've had Oregrown's Blueberry Northern Lights live resin caviar and that's pretty high on my list of favorites.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Oh yeah, Forbidden Fruit is excellent. Mine is Durban Poison. It’s got a clear and crisp uplifting creative energy. Tastes freaking great too, very limey.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Durban Poison is right up there in my Top 10. Like Forbidden Fruit its got such a unique & recognizable flavor profile, which is a huge deal to me personally. And the high is.. 🤌

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It's that thcv that makes it so good!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Whatever's on sale at the dispensary that is more than 20% THC.

I can't even tell the difference between Indica and Sativa, let alone individual strains.

What I do notice is the difference between consumption methods. Dabs, Carts, Flower, and Edibles all hit differently. You can even take turns consuming just one way only, and it'll keep your tolerance low without having to take a single day off. Cart not hitting as hard as it used to? Smoke nothing but bud for the next two weeks. Once that stops affecting you, move on to dabs. Then edibles. Finally, go back to carts and repeat ad infinitum.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Looking at THC % is my go to way of finding what I'll get too. It's the only way I know how to search for a flower that give me what to feel. Looking for head high with giggles, look for THC%. Looking to be Velcroed to the chair, look for CBD%.

As for as I can tell it doesn't matter what strain it is, when I smoke it there's no telling how it'll feel until I feel it.

Switching around and trying different methods helps me mange my tolerance too, but I do have some dry spells in-between for my wallets sake.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Haven’t tried Forbidden Fruit. Looks great.

I have two strands that I highly recommend.

Best is “Purple Space Cookies” it’s incredible and actually purple.

Another great one is Mike Tyson. A knockout of an indica.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've never seen Mike Tyson but I've been watching for it for a couple months now after I had a really good MAC Tyson live rosin by Verdant.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Interesting. I’ll keep an eye out for Mac.

The real treat is purple space cookies.

Seriously the best bud I’ve had. Like I was so stoned but in the best most mellow and productive way possible. I usually go for heavy indices due to my tolerance but this stuff was next lvl.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Kush, Purple. Any Kush really. It puts me in a good place.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My current favorite is Blue Magoo, because it's awesome

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's been on my list of strains to try for a while now - it keeps popping up in dispos around here but so far I've only seen it on offer from producers I don't really care for. One day!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It has a strong calming effect for me

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cheetah Piss is my OG favorite! First time I’ve ever cared to remember a strain 🤘gross name, best strain

I just found some durban poison and I've almost ran out. Hope I can find it again, it's been a long time since I've seen it. Fantastic taste and smells even better.

edit: I've just taken another whiff of the the last nug....It's so good. Here's to an og! 🍻

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Since January, I found a brand (Falcana) that so far all 4 strains I’ve tried are amazing. My favorite so far is Blueberry Tide, 90/10 indica but the high is just right for my wife and I to end our days laughing our ass off before we pass out for a great nights sleep

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Mine is simple: Amnesia Haze. I had a very good two grams from an Amsterdam Coffee Shop. Awesome High, i was in a completely different galaxy. Good Taste as well.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Sumo Grande. It spurs the creative side of my brain.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Raspberry Kush! That shit knocked me out every time. RIP

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

OG Chem. Nothing compares, for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Gaelic fire! I don't usually like indica's but I loooove Gaelic fire

Recreational is still illegal here (boo hiss) and medical prescribed only has limited strains but out of what I have tried, it's a difficult choice between Shishkaberry, OG Kush and Zour Apple. For me they all have different uses. I love the flavour and smell of Zour Apple the most. I guess if I could only choose one, it would be Shishkaberry just because it's such a good all rounder and tastes yum!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dutch Treat is definitely my favorite. It is a perfect hybrid that chills me out without putting me to sleep. I have a high sensitivity to different strains, some will give me extreme anxiety (sour diesel) some will give me paranoia (bubblegum kush) and I have never done well with pure indica.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh Dutch Treat is grea! A couple of my favorite producers put out Dutch Treat live resin now & again and it's got such a unique taste - it always reminds me of like honey & anise/black licorice!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Gushers. I had a bunch for a couple of months and I never got tired of it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This isn’t an all time favorite strain for me but I’ll never forget, in the late 90’s or maybe early 2000’s when it was just dirt weed, mids (outdoor brick weed), beasters (Canadian orange hair seedless) and headies (indoor/hydro etc) there was this fall time harvest weed that reeked like Christmas trees. Definitely outdoor but seedless and very potent pine smell and flavor. Gave you a completely different and unique high that I haven’t been able to find since. Shit was cheap, unique and only came around during the fall harvest but since bud has become more mainstream and more grey market that strain seems to have become extinct. I miss it dearly. For context I’m talking about north eastern USA and always hypothesized it was grown in the pine barrens of central New Jersey

My oldhead friend (a Vietnam vet who had been guerilla growing since the 70's) had a mythical local homegrown strain like this as well, and he had been trying to hunt it down for years. The strain he was hunting was called India Rose, and he said it grew amazingly well as an outdoor strain here in Oregon & had a unique sweet & floral taste that smoked super smooth. I keep hoping I'll find some one day and smoke some in his honor (RIP Dave)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

One other tidbit that I remember is that this bud was technically considered mid grade because it was outdoor grown and a bit leggy but when you ground it up and had it in a pile, the shit would cascade down like a slow moving pile of sand because of how sappy it was if that makes any sense. It was sticky but dry and moved like that kids toy they make thats basically thick sand.

Edit: The description from this write up sounds spot on. The shit was ugly but dank af mids.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Skywalker OG. Plug hasn't had it in stock in a while sadly but it was amazing.

Your nug looks top tier as well

I had a out of body experience on Bubba Kush, one of the first few times I smoked back in the day, I'll never forget the experience of looking down at myself laughing while holding onto a friend then "snapping" into my body when I realized I wasn't in it.

I worked marijuana industry for almost a decade, I saw plenty of strains come and go and I was so high working manufacturing that all of them kind of blended together, so I'm not sure if I have a favorite but that Bubba Kush moment was one of the most memorable for sure.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Florida Kush. Smells bad. Tastes bad. Feels great. Don't get me wrong, tasty weed is great. I had some Cherry Burger with almost 4% terps that far outdid it's thc percentage while tasting great. But I get excited about the funk and the skunk. I want those volitile sulfuric compounds. Florida Kush nails it juuust right for me. And I'm from Florida, so it's me themed!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Candied unicorn is my jam. Matter of fact I'm gonna vape that tonight!
