Budtender Moment: Ice Cream Lights Strain Review

“Some strains quiet the room. Ice Cream Lights quiets the soul.”

-This Puzzled Life

Light the charcoal. Sprinkle the sage. Today we’re calling in a strain that feels like somebody took a summer carnival, a neon-lit ice cream truck, and a cosmic daydream and churned them all together until they glowed. The strain is Ice Cream Lights.

Ice Cream Lights is an indica-dominant hybrid. The kind that doesn’t knock you out. But absolutely tells you to sit down somewhere and hush. This strain is a cross between Ice Cream Cake × Northern Lights. Ice Cream Cake is a cross between Gelato #33 × Wedding Cake. Northern Lights is a cross of Afghani Landrace × Thai Landrace. This is dessert-meets-ancestral-medicine-cabinet energy. Sweetness from the Gelato line, grounding from the Afghani roots, and that unmistakable Northern Lights hush-your-spirit glow.

Ice Cream Lights tastes like someone froze a vanilla bean cloud. Dipped it in sugar crystals. And then waved it over a pine forest at dusk. Expect the tastes of vanilla cream, sweet dough, light pine, and a cool, almost minty exhale. It’s dessert-forward without being sticky, and the finish is clean enough to make you go back for a second hit just to confirm you didn’t imagine it.

The terpene profile for this strain is Limonene, Caryophyllene, and Linalool. Together they create that “I’m not high. I’m just vibing in 4K resolution” effect. Ice Cream Lights is a comfort strain. It’s the kind you reach for when your nervous system is acting like it’s late for church. Patients report getting relief from stress, anxiety, mild-to-moderate pain, muscle tension, mood, and sleep support without immediate sedation. Perfect for the end of a long day when you want to feel like a human again. Not a frantic tumbleweed rolling through life.

Please keep in mind that depending on differences in grows depends on what area of the country it is grown in. Ther will also be slight differences depending on when, where the plant was grown. Thanks for reading! And keep blazin.’ Have you tried this strain?

Affirmation: I soften. I settle. I glow from the inside out. My peace is non-negotiable.

Budtender Moment: Soul Assassin Strain Review

“I don’t smoke marijuana, but I eat it.”

-Bob Dylan

Light the charcoal. Sprinkle the sage. Negative energy go away. Today, I want to tell you about a strain called Soul Assassin. As domestic violence awareness month winds down and seeing the damage that abuse can do to someone, I thought that the cannabis strain for today was absolutely perfect. Because of being trapped mentally or physically from seeking freedom, often times for years, it feels like the perpetrator has literally assassinated your soul. 

Soul Assassin is a heavy indica-dominant hybrid. Domestic violence is something heavy that is like a wrecking ball in the victim’s life. But this strain is heavy in regard to healing. It’s just what the doctor order for the overstimulation of PTSD. The genetics of this strain is a cross between OG Kush x Sour Diesel. Most like myself, who have been in the cannabis community for many years, know that these are a couple strains that many would consider staples. OG Kush is a cross between Hindu Kush x Lemon Thai x Chemdawg. Sour Diesel is a cross between  Northern Lights x Chemdawg.

The medical benefits associated with this strain include relief from insomnia, anxiety, mood disorders, stress, chronic pain, depression, and inflammation. The top terpenes are B-myrcene, terpinolene, B-Pinene. I got a lot of relief with this strain. I would also encourage you to plan on not going anywhere. As “couchlock” can be a reality. Thanks for reading! Keep blazin.’

Affirmation: I smoke my weed and mind my business.
