STICKERS & GIFTS

The sedating high from this indica is perfect for a night of anxiety-free relaxation. Platinum Kush gets its name from its frosty appearance, a result of the dense trichomes that grow on the bud. THC levels vary, but are usually in the 16%-18% range. That makes this a moderately strong choice, though poor growing can lead to very low THC levels. An indica, Platinum Kush has more CBD than most strains available in America. This chemical is used to treat severe seizures and other conditions. The combination of THC and CBD makes this a good strain for anxiety, depression, and pain, as the body high is deeply relaxing. This strain has a sweet, pungent smell reminiscent of fruit and a sweet, earthy taste. Platinum Kush, aka Platinum OG Kush and Platinum OG, is probably the result of crossbreeding between Master Kush and an original Afghani strain. Platinum Kush produces a mellow, easy feeling; the high doesn’t last very long, but it’s usually enough to put an insomniac to sleep. Dry mouth and red eyes are the only likely adverse effects, though paranoia is also possible. Platinum Kush is most popular in Denver and the West Coast, but it’s harder to find in other parts of the country.

There is some dispute over the true parents of this indica-dominant award winner: Some sources claim they’re F1Durb (an indica-dominant descendant of Durban Poison) and Florida OG (a little known indica). Others say they’re Blueberry and Girl Scout Cookies. Whatever its origins, Blue Cookies has a sativa/indica ratio of between 10:90 and 30:70. That makes for a potent body buzz, although the sativa genes also provide an energized cerebral effect. Use this strain to treat anxiety, low mood, headaches, irritability, and persistent physical pain. Blue Cookies won the Cannabis Cup in the medical hybrid category based largely on its whopping THC content, measured at more than 28%. The record holder is still less than 30%, which means this strain is one of the strongest on the market. CBD, on the other hand, makes up less than 2% of this plant’s cannabinoid content, so Blue Cookies shouldn’t be used as an exclusive treatment for seizures or other health problems that respond to CBD. As the name suggests, this strain’s dense nugs have a dark bluish tint, as well as a thick layer of resinous

a sativa-dominant hybrid with a sativa/indica ratio of roughly 70:30. This strain, also known as Cheesewreck, was born in Holland, but its parentage reaches back to the United Kingdom and California. THC levels have reportedly topped 19% in tests, making this a relatively potent medical option. CBD levels, on the other hand, aren’t widely known, so Cheese Wreck shouldn’t be used as front-line treatment of epilepsy or other health problems that can be treated with CBD. But it’s an excellent choice for treating ADHD, anxiety, and the stresses of everyday life. The cerebral high is energetic and long lasting, with a strong dose of creativity. Expect a sweet, dank smell and a fruity flavor. The nugs are lime green with bright orange hairs and a visible dusting of trichomes coating the surface. There are few public reports of adverse effects, but dry mouth, dry eyes, and paranoia are usually the most common. Colorado, Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia are the easiest places to find this unique strain.

Mendo Breath is a super rare indica dominant hybrid strain created through crossing the classic OG Kush Breath with the rare Mendo Montage strain. This hard to find bud brings on the potency, with a THC level that bottoms out at about 19-20% on average and dazzling full bodied effects. Mendo Breath comes on pretty quickly after your first few hits, filling your mind and body with a happy tingly effect. This tingle quickly turns into a full on buzz, washing over you physically and pulling you down into a heavy couch-locked body high. As you lose your physical form to happy sedation, your mind will lift into a state of hazy euphoria that leaves you unable to focus and pretty sleepy at times. Thanks to these nighttime effects and its high THC level, Mendo Breath is said to be perfect for treating conditions such as chronic pain, inflammation, muscle spasms or cramps, and chronic stress. This bud has a sweet vanilla caramel candy flavor and a fresh earthy aroma to match. 

Mimosa is a sativa dominant hybrid strain (70% sativa/30% indica) created through crossing the classic Purple Punch X Clementine strains. If you’re looking for an early morning pick-me-up (minus the alcohol), this bud is totally for you. Mimosa packs bright and happy daytime effects that are perfect for chasing sleep away and giving you a positive mood as you take on your day. You’ll feel an energetic, clear-headed lift at the onset of the high, which fills your brain with euphoric motivation and laser-sharp focus. A light tingle accompanies these effects, resting mainly in the body rather than your head. With these effects and its high 19-27% average THC level, Mimosa is said to be the perfect choice for treating those suffering from conditions such as depression, chronic stress or anxiety, ADD or ADHD, migraines, and nausea or appetite loss. This bud has a sweet and sour tropical citrus flavor with a light berry exhale, almost like a fresh mimosa! The aroma follows the same profile, although with an influx of woody florals and fresh earthy herbs.
