Great for getting things done, not great for people with unresolved stresses as this strain may bring about some heavy introspection. At least that was my personal experience. Great overall quality, not much flavor to speak of.

Excellent Sativa! I found the high reminded me of the brisk uplifting feeling of a double espresso combined with a comforting euphoria to be exceptionally pleasant and helpful. I found the high to come on pretty intensely and early, peaking in intensity within 45 min. before smoothing out into a nice and easy--and functional--high. I really wish I had more. I took a look at the menu just now and they are sold out. I need to remember to stock up on this next time!
An original atypical, different from the popular hybrids that hit you hard from both S and I sides, and can couch lock you ... into confusion. Red Congolese lets you get going and get stuff done. Vapes energetic, focused and bright. Senses tuned up, positive mood. Very easy to get deeply into tasks, that's as Couch-Locky as this one gets. Nothing catatonic about the Red Congolese.
But then I tried smoking it and it was heavier. If nothing else, the flower carries well over 20% THC, so it's a matter of correct dosing, and I kind of missed the mark. I had moments of anxiety and THC confusion before things settled down (so those S side-effects are there), but they passed, in about 5 minutes. Going back to my usual low-mid temp vaporizing, it's just right.
The flower looks as unique as it's smell. I've never smoked a sativa like this one before. The euphoric high comes on fast and last longer than most sativas I've tried before. Alert and focused for hours. Great day-time high that doesn't weigh you down. Only LOVE the Congo!
This...this strain is unlike anything I've ever come across. How is it possible that we have been able to create a strain that mimics Adderall or Modafinil? I smoked it yesterday after a long day at work and proceeded to organize and clean EVERYTHING I was able to look at while listening to a podcast and visualizing each person speaking in vivid detail. The effects were immediate and lasted a couple of hours and I needed to double up on my CBD just so I could relax and go-to bed. I kept wondering if the people living below me could hear any loud sounds I was making and every now and then I thought I heard people moving in the hallways so be warned I think you get a hint of paranoia but nothing to be alarmed about. It smells like spices from my spice rack (maybe a bit or oregano?). I didn't think a strain this energizing and productive existed so I was blown away by the effects. I tried sitting still and relaxing but it was almost impossible. i felt like I had ants in my pants and if I stayed still it would have been torture. I cleared out the entire stock at Stashclub and will do it again. This is the Holy Grail of productive weed. I don't think I would recommend smoking this at night to be honest. My first 10/10 rating. consider yourself lucky if you come across any specialized individuals that can grow this with quality and care.
A bit of a harsher smoke when burned as a joint but a lot softer while vaporizing. Takes a little to keep lit (likely just an issue with this particular grow). Great smooth head high. Very focused and relaxed. I use it before work and I'm able to focus and complete my computer work with great efficiency. Also great at reducing phantom limb pain as it's very head oriented in its effects. Great choice for anyone looking for a smoke that will get their heads in the game and some creative and focused while doing so.
Super Mindshine on this one. Really productive crystal clear high. Positivity buzz and awesome for workouts, hiking etc.. similar to Arjans #1. Just has that awesome up and clean positivity buzz.

I finally grabbed some Moxie to try after everything yesterday. It was MUCH needed. The taste reminds me a little bit of casey jones, the effects are so motivating the world looks so bright.
I was able to completely deep clean my house in a matter of an hour. It's not an overwhelming sativa so give it a try.
I will hold onto it as long as I can it's so good!
