Review: Picked up some 91 Tahoe at my visit to Green Angel of Malibu. This is a pretty nice sativa, it actually had quit a bit of leaves but overall it was a nice medication. The smell was of OG but much more sweet - the effects where strong. I don’t know the genetics but it’s a very nice strain. The nugs are much more fluffy than traditional OG strains and smoke rather smooth and last for awhile. This was $20/gram and $60/eighth, just like all the other 91’s. Also got some Malibu Church, which is an awesome harvest.

Review: This was a very, very nice indica dominant hybrid. Immediately hits you like a strong sativa and fades into a long lasting indica high. Extremely potent cannabis, definitely recommend this strain if you like indica dominant strains. The smell reminded me of jelly beans and the taste was pretty similar. The buds were dried very nicely and huge trichs covering the whole nug. Picked this one up from Green Angel of Malibu for $55/eighth. Very high quality and a great pick-up.

Other info: THC usually varies fom 15%-20%. This strain won 1st Place at the 2001 Cannabis Cup. Good medication for backpains or any pain in general and for relaxing - also for insomnia, will put ya right to sleep.

Genetics: Afghani x Nepalese x Hawaiian

U.S. Attorney General Says Justice Department Will No Longer Interfere With States’ Medical Pot Policies

Score one for the good guys!

Earlier this month, new U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder promised a clean break from the policies of the Bush administration. Yesterday, during a live interview on C-Span, he affirmed that this change includes ending the DEA raids of state-authorized medical marijuana providers!

Responding to a reporter’s question regarding the DEA’s recent actions against several California medical cannabis providers, Holder stated: “What the President said during the campaign . . . will be consistent with what we will be doing here in law enforcement. . . What [President Obama] said during the campaign . . . is now American policy.”

You can watch the video of Attorney General Holder’s remarks here.

Holder’s statement marks a dramatic shift in U.S. drug policy, and is a major victory for the 72 million Americans who reside in states where the use of medical cannabis is legal! It also lends support to the ongoing efforts in Minnesota, New Jersey, and Rhode Island — each of which are debating legislative proposals to make the production and distribution of medical cannabis legal under state law.

At this time, NORML would like to personally thank those of you who responded to our request to contact the Attorney General’s office and urge Eric Holder to call off the DEA raids. Your phone calls and e-mails have helped to change U.S. marijuana policy!

So go ahead and give yourself a pat on the back. And while you’re at it, click here to thank the new Attorney General for supporting the will of the people and the health and welfare of seriously ill patients.

“Change we can believe in?” Yes it is, and it’s about time.

I have access to Clones of the original chem-4 from JoeBrand.   My caregiver grew out this very stuff, and it was some of the most potent buds I’ve ever had. Super pungent, almost sour along with the sweet smell OG Kush has.  Immediate sensory alteration. Its has the high of a hard hitting sativa but carries along the nice subtle indica effects that most patients seek. Definitely a head stone. Be ready for your cranium to blast off of your shoulders into the stratosphere.  Be warned if your not doing much you might doze off with your shoes on. Nice thick blanketed feeling on your body.  For both, indica and sativa lovers.

This strain may benefit patients with any chronic illness, Glaucoma, Chronic Pain, Sleeping issues, eating disorders, Diabetes, Apnea, Asthma, Bi-Polar Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Migraines, GastroIntestinal issues, Crohns disease, Muscle spasms, Arthritis

Name of Strain: Bluebub

Hybrid:50% Blueberry 50%Bubblegum

Characteristics of Strain/ Effects: small, dense, darker nugs with a earthy, piney type smell. it had a very earthy taste.

The onset took about 15 to 20 minutes but then it was on! I felt very heavy and just wanted to listen to music and hang out. It is definitely a stay in and sleep/hang out/vibe out medicine. About 1 hour into it I wanted to sit down and have a meal, it was the first time I have been legitimately hungry in a long time.

What type of patient will benefit from this strain: Anxiety patients, patients with digestive problems/the inability to eat, patients who suffer from depression, insomniacs, etc.

The diversity of flavors that various strains of marijuana possess are undoubtedly something of marvel; from the citric and tangy taste of Jack The Ripper to the earthy and sweet taste of Grand Master Kush, marijuana grows with an abundant variety of palette stimulating flavors.

Although the pure taste of marijuana alone is more than suffice, I do enjoy the occasional flavored rolling paper or gutted cigar wrap. However not all flavored rolling papers or wraps actually taste like the flavors they advertise-none the less-I’d like to know:

What is the best tasting rolling paper you have smoked with? (If you don’t use wraps or papers to use your medicine feel free to input your method of use.)

In terms of flavor, I personally enjoy and recommend the smooth and minty taste of Icy Mint Optimo Cigar paper.

Landrace seeds are seeds that have been grown locally in an area for…well…a long time. They are seeds that have been grown in a isolated area for several hundred generations. The longer the plant spends in that area the more acclimated it becomes to that environment. As plants breed they evolve to grow better in their environment, gaining and losing attributes giving it its own uniqueness.

All the wonderful cannabis grown today is basically a cross of maybe 10 different base genetics (South Indian, Brazilian, Laos, Cambodian, Mexican, Afghanistan, China, Russia etc). Each area providing its own unique characteristics to produce the quality we get today. These genetics all came from landrace seeds that breeders identified for certain qualities. For instance, pure Citral is a strain that came from the Pakistani town of Chitral and easily identified by its strong lemon citrus smell/flavor. Any strain with a distinct lemony citrus flavor (Super Lemon Haze anyone) has probably been derived from the original landrace seed from Chitral Pakistan. Hindu Kush is almost pure landrace and was pulled from the Hindu Kush mountain range. Its famous for its potent indica high and copious resin production.

Breeders are constantly searching new areas for landrace genetics that offer something new to our ever-expanding strains. Once a landrace seed has been selected, it has to be stabilized. This is the process of crossing desired phenotypes (of the same plant) to achieve a plant that produces uniform and consistent babys. An un-stabilized cannabis plant can have several phenotypes that can be for the better or the worse. AK-47 has a very cherry phenotype that is absolutely amazing. You may get one of these phenos after buying several packs of non-feminized seeds.

The big hit on the market today is auto-flowering strains. These strains are landrace seeds from taken from the northern hemisphere where days may have 24 hours of light. Well obviously a plant is never going to flower on 24 hours of light (since Indicas and Sativas rely on the shorter days of the years end to flower near the equator). These northern hemisphere plants basically got thrown into the ‘other’ Cannabis category named Cannabis Ruderalis. Ruderalis simply flowers after two or so weeks of growing since it has no idea what time of the year it is. Outdoor growers are reading this going…”wait…I don’t have to build a light deprivation green house to yield more than once a year”. This is indeed a fact. The problem is that Ruderalis in its native environment produces NO THC.

Breeders identified this two week flowering trait and thought “This would be awesome for outdoor growers if it got you medicated.” I don’t know exactly who (probably Dutch Passion) made the first but somebody stabilized a cross of Cannabis Ruderalis and Cannabis Indica/Sativa that produces a good amount of THC. Two months from seed to harvest pushing 5+% THC. The plants are small but with a complete grow time of two months what can you expect. Now that the genes are stabilized watch for some unique auto-flowering strains.

Alternative Care Collective [A.C.C.]

Review: I got this from A.C.C (Alternative Care Collective) and this is a pretty good (indica dominant hybrid). Most the time I don’t care so much for sativa’s, but this is a strong one. The smell is pretty good, I based my decision at this place by the smell, and I thought this was the best one. The look was also very nice, it was cured and handled very well. The high was rather short but strong after the first hit. Recommended morning high in my opinion.

Purchased from:
Green Angel of Malibu [G.A.M.]

Genetics - 91 Valley X Ocean Breeze
Review: I got an eighth of this from Green Angel of Malibu, one of the best dispensaries I have been to by the way, and this strain is very potent. They say it is the best strain they have, but they have a lot of great ones to choose from. This strain is a 100% indica. I took one ripe from the pipe and I immediately felt it. The taste is very nice and not harsh at all. The nuggets were very dense and covered in trichromes and nice orange/yellow hairs. Once your broke the nugget open it smelled very strong. I definitely recommend this strain for the price of $20/gram or $60/eighth, its totally worth it. I also recommend you stop by Green Angel if you ever get the chance, they have an awesome selection and great staff.

ADDED: 01/26/09
I recently bought an eighth of this stuff without checking it out because the previous five or sixth eighths I got of this stuff were excellent, but the most recent stuff I purchased was not as great. Seems liked it wasn’t cured long enough, but I’m not sure. It was very strong nonetheless, but the taste wasn’t there anymore, the smell was and the thick cover of trichromes but it didn’t taste so great.
