What STRAIN works the best for your condition?

The name is a hideous turn-off, especially when people ask what i've got and I have to say.. Well, I have a bit of Cat Piss if you want some..

It smells strong, tastes sweet & sour like gummy lollies, and slightly minty taste. It's good stuff! I'd compare it to a more energetic AK-47 (however I prefer ak47 because it feels more clean and clear)
I'll need to get some CAT PISS!
Tonight I was getting down on my GSC.
I had a 1/2 oz of 3 types of top shelf indica. (blueberry, valentine, pineapple kush)
I mixed 1 to one indica + GSC!
Wow was and is this a great mix!

When Snoop went to Jamaica the colas were pretty good however California has the best quality!
Even better than Amsterdam!

However with a indoor hydroponic grow and seeds of quality you should be able to grow anywhere in the world I would believe?

Plus no cutting corners or lower standards!

Hydro setups are controlled environments so yes it should be the same deal, but some places are better equipped for a hydro setup and as far as I know; Cali is leading the way in regards to the diversity and clever placement of hydro setups in houses and store basements!

In door growing is a whole different approach!

Here's a couple of new strain listings, for this thread the cat piss caught my eye:

Can you get GSC (Girl Scout Cookies) this zip is really good I have!

Put GSC on you bucket list!
I will make a mental note of that. I also want to try Blue Dream at some point! Strains are far and few between, maybe i'll hear about 1-2 new ones in the local area once every few months :ko:

I believe ak47 may be causing a drastic loss in appetite. Such a shame because the high is so great..

This week I've made a blend of a high CBD Harlequin mixed with Blue Dream for a THC punch.

There's something not right about this Blue Dream. It has an sweet baby vomit flavor/aroma that I am having trouble getting past.

This stuff is Beautiful to look at and smell in the jar, and the analytical test results look great at 22% THC. But flavor is disgusting. I've got to stick with it until Friday though when I am going on a mission for flavor.

It could be normal, ever heard of skunk weed? Some strong indicas can have that nasty smell.

I do think our is normal, or at least there is nothing wrong with it other than my personal taste. I do actually like a skunk. A recent superskunk lemon Haze was really amazing.

Good indica for pain, sedation moderate, not heavy, not sleepy: Animal Cookies Oil. Calm and lucid, with good body relief. 72% thc. It's inexpensive too, fifteen a gram at BPG.

Sour diesels are proof Sativa pain relief is not just "you don't care". As with a good indica I can feel a specific numbing in the lower back with SD. A light vape gives energy and vitality, but a little too much SD and the anxious thoughts stream in. Something like that Animal Cookies doesn't carry that downside. But then again no energy boost.

Normally Blue Dream has a wonderful flavor. I have had Blue Dream Hybrid combinations one of the best strains out there. Maybe there is something wrong with it? Does the Blue Dream taste bad by itself or just bad mixed with the Harlequin?

I had a strain called Blue Magoo which is a combination of Blue Dream and Williams Wonder. It was very smooth tasting. Williams Wonder strain taste terrible but the Hybrid Blue Magoo taste good because the Blue Dream taste overpowers the flavor from the Williams Wonder.

Just want to mention again that blends are not the same as hybrids or grafts. I have had wonderful pain relieving diesels reduced to head flapping sativas by mixing with another strain. In other words by mixing two excellent flowers I ended up with garbage. Humble suggestion: if you blend, start with tiny batches, and keep a detailed log.

Some cannabinoids boost THC effects, some compete with it. They work together in very complex and hard to predict ways.

@fernand I am definitely looking forward to being done with this strain. Black Friday at the dispensary can't come soon enough!

I've got a question that isn't worth a new thread, but is applicable here if it's OK.

Now that my E-Nano had me using half as much mmj as before, my weekly budget has a little more wiggle room to play in the dispensary. I'm realizing that I need to better plan what I'm going buy each week now that my usage has changed.

If you could buy a favorite top shelf strain for $10/gram or kief produced from the exact same harvest for $20/gram, which would be the better choice for THC/dollar? Is there anything beneficial missing from kief if it is the better choice?

yeah, not always a fan of random salads, some strains blend together quite nicely though. I often pick up half of one kind and half of another and at least try a salad.

I'm in a tasting phase right now, and am limiting my purchases to one gram each of high CBD and standard THC flowers, which I am making last four days.

I was thrilled today to find a new CBD strain. Apparently the grower was surprised when a seed accidentally produced from a previous grow yielded a hybrid between one of his high CBD meds and a Chronic strain he thought he was working with . third party tested at 13% CBD and 6% THC, which is about the perfect starting CBD:THC ratio for me.

But what really sets it apart is that it is incredibly sticky/gummy/flavorful compared to the rather boring stale hemp flavor of many high CBD. By far the best flavor profile of any high CBD I've come across in Washington state. I sure hope that there is a healthy mother plant producing clones of this, because it deserves wide distribution.

I bought a e-book on strains however 2 years old seems out dated already!
So I am desperately trying to find some answers to my inquires?

For example for my SCA (SPINAL CEREBELLAR ATAXIA) I like GIRL SCOUT COOKIES for the day.
DUTCH TREAT for night. CACTUS COOLER for flavor and recreation. The other strains I've tried were just part of the search.

Condition? Strain preferred? Day/Night time?

Ataxia DUTCH TREAT GSC/DT

Parkinson ? ?

Fibromyalgia ? ?

MS ? ?

Lou Gehrigs ? ?

OTHER?
several of the conditions you cited are autoimmune type disorders. crohns and uc also in that camp. i no longer have uc as they removed my colon entirely. i still have crohns, got the rare daily double on that. also i've a spinal fusion thanks to deg. disc disease as well as worsening peripheral nerve damage. icing on the cake high function autistic, traded in that for a misdiagnosed case of adhd.:rolleyes: my preferences on the thc varieties, indica or strong indica ONLY evenings & before bed. daytime something like flo or sfv kush. no strong sativas ever they only make matters worse. i have used Girl Sc. Cookie before for daytime relief but i have better results with flo to be honest. of the conditions you listed many have shared symptoms so i would expect similar results but everyone is different and unique in how things affect them be it the disease/s or the treatment.

good luck sounds like you have a lot on your plate too.:ugh:

I had to change my program because of anxiety and depression!
I found GSC for daytime.
A really strong indica for night.
I keep 2 or 3 strains to medicate with.


We are all different for sure.
I learn everyday!
