Treasure Island provides noticeable pain relief and a reassuring sensation of wellness with a short-lived high and only a minor sense of impairment ... much like a joint of my home-grown Humboldt County weed from the 1970s. After smoking a carefully measured 1 grain (1/15 gram) portion of flower in a K-Vape at 421 degrees, it feels as though I've consumed aspirin, alcohol, and caffeine all at the same time. My ounce of Treasure Island flowers tested at slightly over 6% THC, which might seem awfully low to 21st century consumers, but for those of us who would like to enjoy all the positive effects of marijuana without a whole lot of physical or intellectual impairment, this strain is an excellent daily smoke.

I recently purchased 14 grams of Hell's OG (f.k.a. Hell's Angel OG) from Terrapin Station in Denver. This batch tested at 24.81% THC, so I was pretty excited to give it a try. My first sample was exactly 1 grain of ground flower (1/15th of a gram), which I smoked with a Kandy K-Vape Micro DX. As the chamber was heating to 400 degrees, I merely sniffed and sipped the emerging vapor. The flavor of this strain was so deliciously toasty and woodsy that I wanted to smoke another bowl right away. Fortunately, I had the good sense to wait, because 1 single grain of this stuff delivered a superb combination of trippy cerebral high with a whole lot of pleasant physical sensations, but with absolutely no couch-lock or anxiety. After a couple of hours passed, I sampled another 1 grain of ground flower in a briar pipe. I certainly didn't need to get any higher, but I loved the flavor so much that I wanted to taste it again. Well, the flavor from the smoke is even better than the flavor of the vapor, and the resulting combination of head and body high are just about perfect. Hell's OG (f.k.a. Hell's Angel OG) has just found a place among my top 5 strains.
