White Berry (or Berry White as my local grower calls it "because it's so smooooth") is a balanced strain. The buds grow large, dense and frosty, with colas that can get bigger than your arm. When fully cured, the resinous nugs look white from all the trichome crystals with small patches of orange hairs peeking out. The smell is very floral and berry-bush-like, though some earthy elements bubble up from the dank undertone. The flavor is just like the smell, smooth and soft. The aftertaste is sweetly floral. Since this strain is a hybrid, it hosts elements of both a stony, couch-lock indica and a uplifting, buzzy sativa. Depending on how much you smoke, the high can be heavily body and last for several hazy hours. Good for a midday respite or a nighttime wind-down.

After my hometown was flooded with this particular strain for nearly a year, I can say I honestly have been burnt out from it. It has a wonderfully floral smell and taste with sweet undertones and a powerful, distinct aftertaste which I can best describe as soapy". The high is a good sativa buzz that lasts a good while, with a heavy body high of an indica. When I was first acquainted with this strain, I loved it. But after months of the same flavor and high, I was definitely done with it. Possibly after a while I would try it out again.

Jack Herer! An old time standby and perennial favorite, this strain holds a special place in my heart. The nuggets have always been incredibly dense for a sativa, with tight clusters of amber orange hairs. The color is usually more yellow/ tan than bright green. The flavor is spicy and citric, with woodsy/earthy undertones. It feels very fresh and invigorating. The sativa is mighty powerful, providing a buzzy head high and long lasting motivation. Use this for a wake and bake for a great way to jump start your day, almost like an espresso shot with a buzz.

One of my all time favorite strains, the BBC has a distinctive smell that can never be forgotten. My friend had acquired some after a trip to Amsterdam and the seed quickly turned into a tree. The buds are fluffier than most buds, but heavy and resinous. More along the yellow/ brown spectrum, I was worried that this was a bad strain, or at least a bad grow. This changed the moment I smoked it. The cheesy smell translated well to the taste, with very heavy "dank" aftertaste that lingers. The sticky buds create a thick lung- expanding smoke that causes a chronic tickle. The high has a gentle liftoff that plateaus into a comfortable energy and focus, perfect for tasks like video games or a jam session. It is uplifting and stony at the same time, which makes this hybrid a flexible strain. Beyond everything else, the distinct smell/ taste combo sets this strain apart from comparable ones. I'm always happy to come across Big Buddha Cheese.

The smell is a "natural" kind of scent, like standing in a sweet forest. The taste is also fairly woodsy with hints of citrus and a tea-like flavor. Despite the bad picture (blame my phone), the buds were pretty: dense and deep green with orange hairs all over. The high takes effect almost immediately and is pretty strong. I could feel my muscles relax and warm as I walked around. My eyelids felt heavy and I was a but sluggish. Definitely reserve this for insomnia or relaxation, because it's a good sedative. Overall a quality Indica that deserves the popularity.

Got a quarter of some baby buds for an eight hour road trip andthe strain is great! When I first opened the bag, the sweet smell of blueberries wafted into my nostrils and my mouth watered in anticipation. When I broke apart the buds, sweetness overtook the room. It smelled as if I were standing in a blueberry field. The taste was sweet and lightly floral, with subtle berry notes in the aftertaste. The high took a bit to kick in, but once it started it went full force. It started behind the eyes, much like hash but much more energetic. It could be described as buzzy and heady. I'd recommend it to anyone with a tedious or boring task ahead, or if you just want a shot of energy with a great taste.
