Strain Review of Critical Mass
The Green Solution, Northglenn
80% Indica / 20% Sativa
CBD: 8.8%
THC: 7.23%
What it is:
This indica dominant strain is a cross of Afghan Indica and Skunk #1. It is a later generation Big Bud that was enhanced to help regulate the yields, THC, and CBD levels. The name originates from the dense thick buds that from this plant, growing so big they can snap branches. This strain can be difficult to grow because the massive buds can mold in humid environments. It is recommended for experienced growers because of this issue, but can yield up to 6 pounds.
Smells: earthy, floral, citrus, and notes of lemon with a medium body- not very skunky
Taste: It has a light sweet and earthy flavor and is very smooth.
Method: Smoked
Feel:
It is a relaxing high that doesn't take away mental clarity. It helps soften your muscles, keep you relaxed, while not ruining your mental concentration
Overview:
When I first bought this weed I panicked; Why did I buy weed with only 7% THC?! I told the budtender I was looking for a flower that contained CBD without realizing that products high in CBD will commonly have low THC.
However, this flower changed my mind that I need a high percentage of THC in order to feel the effects. I would typically go for something with a high percentage of THC to help ease my mind and help me relax for the night. The CBD in this flower helped me relax and enjoy the evening. I did feel some couch lock and a sense of euphoric comfort, but I could still enjoy in-depth conversations.
Sometimes it's nice to relax and turn your brain off, but with this weed, you'll have all the relaxation without the loss of mental clarity.
This strain could be beneficial to those new to smoking weed, or those who are sore from a previous day's workout, or those looking for a low anxiety smoke.
