King Kong
9/30/2021
One of the first strains in a while to give me, albeit briefly as a sorta rush effect, the behind the eye/headband feel I recall from solid high THC strains.
Mine came from a reliable source but not a dispensary so that said! My experience so far;
one full bowl in afterwork, a bit after a small bing of Jack Herer that is probably AA quality relative to dispensary quality (it's a nice smoke and my guess, 12-16% thc but without a lil hash or kief it doesnt blow me away, although sativa strains in general can be like that unless I get exotics)
The next bowl after was of the king kong og I got, this was a full bowl. Woooo this had the rush with a headbandy behind the eyes feel I havent experienced in a bit, not without dabbing.
So far one solid binger has me pretty relaxed, and happier than I've been lately. I'm not dragging, I suspect another bowl or two and it could sedate but I'm hoping I'll be able to tolerate it in the morning. At this time im willing to go out walking to listen to a podcast even though my job is spending the day walking around. Alot.
I went picking this to put me down after work and maybe relieve some pain (cannabis, thc at least isnt always the best for me in pain relief although it helps make it bearable. Hemp strains and cannabinoid tinctures are where I'd go for real pain anyway).
I'd say it helps but I did take other herbs that have muscle relaxant and pain relief properties so I don't wanna say this strain crushed the pain. My herbal mixture has me feeling great considering my day!
That said, the binger hit my chest and lungs pleasantly but like kong punched me with cannakong goodness. Once coughing was over I was pretty happy and def felt relieved to be home and I def shook off some minor worries I'd say could have in another time, the same situation couldve easily had me pretty stressed and upset I couldnt or didnt control my circumstances better.
Zen night so far. I've had some kava and another herbal medicine that helps take the edge off pain and inflammation but my final point to touch is the recent strains I've had I cant think of the last time I had essentially one bowl (usually pack and rip full bowls, the JH bowl prior was small to conserve on a sativa) for me, even if I resist sometimes, usually I'll wanna take another full bowl rip. KK og has me content for over an hour off the one.
I have a relatively heavy tolerance for a flower user and because I go through phases of trying to trick my liver to make d8THC/d9THC>>11hoTHC and grapefruit or kava seem to have helped do that. Recently have prob taken like 5g of d8THC orally over 2.5 weeks and that def jacked my tolerance... SMH ironically tolerance upped and I barely notice d8 unless I take 500+mg
