Today I am reviewing another batch of the delicious Super Skunk from one of my favorite dispensaries in San Diego, Alpha Medic.

Super Skunk is lab tested by SC Labs at 19.1 % THC and 2.4% CBD, putting …

Today (Dec. 13, 2012) we held a contest on our Facebook page to identify the strain pictured above. We provided several pictures and asked our fans to participate by submitting their guesses for a chance to win a free shirt if correct. Unfortunately, nobody was correct, so we felt it’s time to inform the world of this incredible strain. After all, that is why we do what we do! Described by patients as some of the tastiest bud ever; it packs a smooth berry smoke — similar to fruity pebbles. Fucking Incredible is …

As with most strains with OG genetics, the exact lineage is unknown. As such, it is impossible to know if this is a new unique phenotype that is going to be popularized by the breeders over time, or if it is simply a renamed strain to take advantage of the holiday sales season. Christmas OG Shares Same Traits As Pine OG Strain “Sometimes dispensaries will alter the name of the strain during the holiday season to push sales for that product.” My first impression about this strain is that it is probably a …

Platinum Bubba Kush is an all-around great Indica strain to medicate with, especially in the afternoons. The kush will make you sleepy, but more importantly, it will ease your mind from those endless thoughts insomnia patients are so familiar with. Like most kush medicine, its effects are full-bodied and provide significant pain relief, stress relief, as well as a boost in appetite. Considered by many as their go-to medication — it’s that powerful of a body-healer. Platinum Bubba is a popular strain among medical marijuana patients because of its ability to provide significant pain relief. The …

Needless to say, Sour Apple was a very interesting strain to review. It had all the attributes of Sour Diesel with a much more fruity aroma that smells and tastes exactly like sour apple. Sour Apple Cannabis Strain Stems From Cinderella 99 x Diesel The effects begin very energetic and is an instant head-rush like any normal Sour Diesel smoke session. However, Sour Apple has a much more potent body high than you may be used to from Sour Diesel. This batch of Sour Apple was lab tested at a hefty 21.5% Total …

The Tahoe OG strain is a phenotype of OG Kush that is known for its dense, compact buds and full bodied effects. This strain is an all around masterpiece for patients medicating before bed – it’s no wonder that a batch of it won first place on our Top 5: Night-time Strains of 2012.

Bred by Soma Seeds, the NYC Diesel strain is a classic strain that has gained a great of popularity over the years. It is known for its gassy aroma and cerebral effects. NYC Diesel Strain: Sour Diesel X (Afghani X Hawaiian) I came across this batch of the NYC Diesel strain on my recent trip to SFVDM in Van Nuys, CA.

When I asked the dispensary what their best Planetary OG was out of the 5 available (Mars OG, Jupiter OG, Pluto OG, etc…), they said it was definitely their Neptune OG. To begin, what does it mean when we say OG when we are talking about medical marijuana? No it doesn’t stand for Original Gangster… it means Ocean Grown. The most notable characteristic about OG strains is their distinct pine stench. Also, almost all the OG strains are known to make you tired and are frequently used by patients as natural sleep-aids.

Pandoras Box genetics come from Jack the Ripper and Space Queen. So I guess it’s no wonder why this potent Sativa is such a hit with medical marijuana patients who appreciate a strong head-high. “Pandoras Box created an entrancing head-high that let the mind wander without worry — making this strain good for my anxiety.” I continually found myself “snapping back” into reality wondering how much time I just spent in that deep, random thought. Although this lack of focus may sound like a bad thing, the easing of …
