Budtender Moment: Sage OG Strain Review

“I have the memory of a goldfish…that’s also high.”

-Unknown

Light the charcoal. Sprinkle the sage. Negative energy go away. Today, I want to tell you about a nice chill strain called Sage OG.

Sage OG is a balanced hybrid cross between OG Kush x SAGE (Sativa Afghan Genetic Equilibrium). OG Kush is a cross between Chemdawg x Hindu Kush. SAGE is a cross between Afghani x Big Sur Holy. This particular strain by Southern Sky is sitting at 27.9%. However, it’s not overwhelmingly too strong for it not to be a daytime strain. 

The major terpenes in this strain are Limonene, Caryophyllene, and Myrcene. Patients report relief from chronic pain, appetite loss, anxiety, and mood disorders. This strain would be good for smokers at all levels. Overall, it’s just a good chill strain. Thanks for reading! Keep blazin’.

Affirmation: I nurture myself like I’m a fresh cut clone. With tender care, lots of water, and plenty of protection.

Budtender Moment: Purple Rain Strain Review

“The biggest killer on the planet is stress, and I still think the best medicine is and always been cannabis.”

-Willie Nelson

Light the charcoal. Sprinkle the sage. Negative energy go away. Today’s strain review will be on the strain Purple Rain. This is another “purple” strain as we continue to bring awareness and prevention for those who are touched, in some way, by suicide. Purple strains are usually dark and indica, which is right up my alley. As with most strains, there is typically more than one terpene profile depending on the genetics. This was the one that I tried.

Purple Rain is an indica-dominant strain and a cross between Chemdawg x Purple Candy Kush x OG Kush. Just looking at the “plant family” genetics, I know that both OG Kush and  Chemdawg are strong and dank fuel taste between the two. And Purple Candy, I assume is a sativa because of the Candy.

This strain I wasn’t sure would be what I needed. On inhale it definitely tastes like a typical purple strain with that “hazy” taste. And for me it acted like a hybrid “creeper” strain. But then that Purple Rain began falling down on me and by the end I was so faded. 

Patients report relief from symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress. And I agree. Terpenes in this strain are Limonene, Caryophyllene and Linalool. Probably on of the reasons that the effects came on slower, even at 26% THC. Myrcene is the terpene that can give you that hard “couch lock.” But I have to admit that this is still a nice strain.

Affirmation: It’s called CANnabis not CANTabis.
