This was my 2nd visit at GrowHealthy. Another quick, pleasant experience. The purpose of this review is to comment on the 99 Problems flower; AMAZING flower quality! I use a Mighty Vaporizer to vape flower, and the oil (medicine) content in that flower is fantastic! I could feel the alpha-pinene in the plant dilate my bronchi immediately (great for my mild asthma when I exercise), the neck and back pain melted. I stretched, made the coffee, and sat down at my desk to start the week strong! Thanks so much all! I’ll be back for sure.
Puck Yeah has a Northern Lights #1 genotype. It tastes like Northern Lights, but has a milder sedative or “in-the-couch” effect for me. This works for me for chronic pain and inflammation. While not as heavy, or sleep-inducing as Northern Lights, it helps me to calm my mind, and ease me to sleep. If you are looking for a plant to replace benzodiazepines, pseudo-benzos (Ambien, Lunesta), or old-school AD’s like Trazodone to help you sleep, I would recommend this or any plant with a strong Northern Lights genotype. Always , always , always work with your physician when tapering, or discontinuing any sleep medication; As stopping abruptly can cause retrograde insomnia, and in the case of benzodiazepines, stopping abruptly can cause seizure or even death. Be healthy!
I got into cannabis for chronic pain. I have dealt with depression and anxiety/panic disorder as well since I was a child. At 45 years old, I have tried nearly every antidepressant approved on the N. American market. One has been consistently effective for me (Effexor XR), and since starting cannabis, my dosage is 1/3 of what it was. I was always apprehensive about sativa strains due to perceived fear of them causing a panic attack. I must say, Super Silver Haze & Durban Poison have been amazingly therapeutic for my depression, anxiety, and pain. These plants simply make me feel “better;” Not out-of-it feeling, not paranoid, no anxiety... simply a feeling of being able to feel able to enjoy life without too much pain, and the motivation and focus to know what I need to do! I quit consuming alcohol a few years ago, and cannabis (for me) is a method to feel healthy & happy without numbing out or “running away” from the craziness of life.
For me, when I am in a low mood, with sweaty palms, racing thoughts, and significant back & neck pain, and would love to stay in bed for days, Super Silver Haze is a combination of a cool towel on my forehead, a Vick’s Inhaler, a sip of cold brew coffee, and a scalp massage all-in-one. Such a wonderful plant! Be healthy!
In my opinion Trulieve is the best dispensary chain in FL., and the Deerfield Beach location is great! It is very well run, and their system of ordering online and picking it up there is easy and efficient even when they are busy. I have never had a problem parking, except for their grand opening day... which was mobbed. The staff know their product inside and out, and I get they impression they are very big on patient satisfaction. Very professional staff here; Cassidy is always very pleasant and very knowledgeable.
Boss OG has been my versatile go-to since it became available at Trulieve in FL. For me, it is effective for reducing pain and inflammation, without feeling out of it. I also find it helpful at treating headaches. It has helped me A LOT with anxiety and depression as well, without feeling medicated. It is very “balancing” for me, and it reduced my ibuprofen intake by ~90%. This strain is currently in my top-3 strains for sure.
