I A euphoric, heady high from a sativa is not like "energy" from caffeine or another "upper"..... As much certain people would like to believe so.
Me thinks crap tasting weed makes some folks argumentative. :lol:

I'm always stoned. Always. When I get up during the night, I hit a roach on the way back to bed. So, when I say...

"Bright, shiny, energetic...almost trippy. Inspirational and motivational. I'll take all that I can get."

...that's exactly what I mean by "daytime weed". A getting things done / chat your ear off / play guitar for hours high. But if the chore is labor intensive, then no...reach for a couple rails of coke.

Yes, these Grape Kandy nugs taste pretty crap...:roll:

Just sick of hearing that hippy bullshit about sativas "giving you energy". Bullshit.

chat your ear off / play guitar for hours high... Sounds like you reach for the coke more often that not! Can't comment on that as it is not my "scene".:shock:

I'm having a real hard time understanding why you refuse to grasp what's being said, and I can't imagine you need to be told the difference between high and couchlocked.

Whatever, brek.

Smoke some proper Durban and you'll understand what an energy rush from a sativa means. Much more of a rush than I've ever gotten from drinking a Red Bull I'll tell you that much. I think you're probably throwing sativa dominant hybrids in with pure sativa land races. Most young stoners these days have never even experienced a pure sativa they just think a hybrid is a solid representation of what a real sativa high feels like. Trust me there's a huge difference.

Oh amos... I was just teasing. Don't go get all curmudgeon on us. If you like coke that's your business. You're sounding uncharacteristically defensive.

ONLY point I'm trying to make. Not that serious.

Fine, sativas give you wings. LOL

Smoked plenty of landrace thais, malawis, colombians etc..... Made my heart race, yes. Wouldn't say it gave me ENERGY.....and I'm a pretty old man BTW.

Maybe my definition of energy differs from others. But I have far too much of it anyway and use cannabis for the OPPOSITE purpose.

Not trying to start a debate on the effects of cannabis as it seems to differ greatly for us all. As long as we're all happy with our preference I think that's all that matters. (:

Ps..... Sorry for the whole "energy" debate. It spurred from someone in this thread that drives me nuts. LOL

I've always really associated with affect, hence sativa is usually not couch lock (yes to can get that fucking I'm so high tripped out feeling) but of a more functioning do shit kinda high. Indicas usually for me have a more sedative and pain numbing affect, usually good for the evening and insomnia curing on the extreme end. I don't know, I think it's hard to truly explain as we all have different physiological responses, expectations, tolerances, and of course different bags of herb. I am far more an indica guy, but I don't mind a good sativa, or hybrid. I know some people, an old guy in particular who hates anything sativa. Have a friend who prefers sativa dominate plants, while another friend of mine will smoke fucking anything. I suppose the beer analogy was best applicable. I'm a beer snob, I won't drink bud, Miller, none of that rice water piss. Throw me a good IPA, Ale, really anything but sours or the before mentioned piss water. Never enjoyed such beers even back when I was a minor. Others will drink any fucking thing. I think part of it stems from smoking itself. Ever have anyone ask what it's like to be high?

I kinda agree with the Tiger here. No cannabis can wake me up at all. I feel a clear difference between sats and indies but I also cant compare it to caffeine or speed or crack or whatever. I think body chemistry affects how we feel things, I am certain no two people have the exact sme experience off a joint. Much as I would love for my weed to have this speedy effect people describe (while working at 2am that would just kick ass) but alas, the experience is not mine to have...

Durban weed is really shite. Duban Poison is a skunk no1 cross so it is as hybrid as can be, not a pure sat so not the best example...

I've had shit samples of Durban and I've had some really nice samples too. Sorry to hear what you've sampled has been shit, because when it's good it's really good. I know there a few different variations from Dutch breeders that are hybrids, but the land race stuff from South Africa is a pure sativa.

Tell the story to a non South African buddy lol... Pure land race weed from Durban is what you will call Ditchweed as is most cannabis from that latitude, particularly at sea level. Now if you are going to use my local Sats as an example to aim for somewhere close to Durban you would have to go to the Drakensberg. Most good weed going around up North is Swazi. So both the Drakensberg and Swazi sativas will not give you an uppy high, they put you to sleep. Equatorial cannabinoid profiles mate. Extreme cbd and THCV levels at times. It is low thc reefer, around 8 percent or so, 12 percent on good Rooibaard. Unfortunately neither fit the terpene profile for Durban Poison, they are spicy and peppery with some sweet in the Drakensberg varieties.
Aniseed and mint you have to head to the Transkei, Port St Johns or Coffee Bay. There you find uppy Sativas with mint and aniseed flavor. Durban Poison is a cross of Skunk no1 and Transkei genetics I don't care what the story says. I know our weed.

Not sure what happened there. The above is a response to amos but it went haywire.

A good sativa doesn't give me energy per se, but it does motivate me. I can take on boring chores like washing dishes .....spin some tunes and actually enjoy doing it. With Indicas I'm glued to the couch whether I have shit to do or not.

last season, nabbed a packet of bodhi's ltd release ethiopian highland and malawi gold.

may schedule micro test run w 3 bodhi 'malawi gold' and 3 holy smoke seeds 'malawi'. I'd go right into 12/12 after an abbreviated veg (since running a reeferman willie nelson, weary of long flowering sativas).

enjoyed runnin a malawi x c99, that only tested at about 11% thc. it was rather fast, compact(ish) and vigor/yield! nice light buzz, plenty functional... so another malawi for possible hybridization would be the idea.

-

the Durban I had came from sensi seeds circa 2000. ran less than 70 days fine compact buds, low leaf to bud ratio/ez trim.
smelled like mango and papaya - only now seeing what a plant that was.

Jabba's Stash/Solo's Stash are potent Snow Lotus crosses.
I haven't grown them, but friends have shared some with me.

I've smoked some very potent Cali O, but I have no clue if it was the same one that Bodhi used.
