Grandaddy Purple (marijuana review, Strain Theory)

Initially, the Granddaddy gave me a nice uptick of energy that had me pondering a walk with our Sheltie on the relatively balmy 34 degree afternoon. It was a lofty goal. I could string together the...

Bruce Banner #3 (marijuana review)

Determined to get some sativa for the post-holiday, back-to-reality blues, there were four choices available when I popped in. Honestly, I would have taken a gram of the divinely funky Lemon G13 on...

Strawberry Cough (marijuana review)

Strawberry Cough provided relief from pain and anxiety and a boost of energy for daytime endeavors, but wasn't as suited for nighttime consumption. "I felt sharp, I felt motivated. A clean house before...

Flo (marijuana review)

This sativa hybrid has an inoffensive quality. Formerly recommended to older medical patients who weren't looking for extreme pain relief or a severe high. However, there's problems in the smell, which...

Super Lemon Haze (marijuana review)

The key to a good Super Lemon Haze is all in the nose. Look for lemony with a savory, buttery undertone. "It’s the Swiss Army knife of sativas in that I can count on it for a boost in mood, energy, or...

Blue Dream (marijuana review)

The sativa-dominant Blue Dream is what I always refer to as "workout weed." I've jogged about as many times as Ron Burgundy, but I've been told on many occasions Blue Dream simulates runner's high for...

Agent Orange (marijuana review)

People are always asking for recommendations for good daytime smoke that won't knock them out, and Agent Orange definitely delivers in that regard. "As we stepped into the coffee shop equivalent of the...

Medicinal Oasis (recreational review by The Ombudsman)

The peculiar tropical/desert motif that adorns the exterior of Medicinal Wellness has slightly confused me as I drove past the shop on Evans over the past few years. The latest addition of Christmas...

Green Crack (marijuana review)

As a big fan of sativas, I had expected to enjoy the Green Crack high I'd always had. Primarily, a dialed-in and centered buzz that allowed me to knock out tasks as they came up. Instead, I was all...

Larry OG review (Cannabis Cup edition)

Strain Theory: The 1st Place Medical Indica from this year's Cannabis Cup smells great but wasn't very enjoyable to smoke. The nug was pretty gorgeous and seemed well-grown; there was a generous...

Island Sweet Skunk (marijuana review)

For the first time I can remember (insert memory joke here), I've felt like I'm too busy to get high lately. As a daily toker for years, this makes frighteningly little sense. I point to examples of...

Poochie Love (marijuana review)

The potency and overall quality of the physical effects in Poochie Love more than made up for the somewhat lackluster flavor. I'd peg the Poochie Love as a solid daytime choice for the majority of...

Grape Stomper (marijuana review)

Two hits of the Grape Stomper and I had a very Headband-esque buzz pulsing through my face and body, with my mind racing and everything else coming to a screeching halt. It was as if I was the guy...

Sour Diesel (marijuana review)

Strain Theory: Sour Diesel isn't the best at knocking out heavy pain, but this was a good example of a time when simply being distracted was enough to win the day. Sour D is the ultimate in what I call...

303 Kush (marijuana review)

Where a buzz hits you can tell you a lot about what you’ll be in for. Here, the 303 Kush sat in the center of my head -- right behind my eyes -- and camped out. This is the kind of “Magic Eye High”...

Space Queen (marijuana review)

For a hybrid, Space Queen draws out the more playfully sativa headiness of the Romulan in the same way your old dog still surprises you with a spry day every now and then. With winter drawing to a...

Lemon Skunk (marijuana review)

A great choice for spring cleaning, Lemon Skunk is always perfect for providing a nudge in the right direction, that being directly below the kitchen sink. All of a sudden, I found myself dusting the...
