I'm looking for a strain recommendation that's even more body and less heady..

Somewhere in my early 20s I started to get anxiety when I smoked and stopped for a while.

That was until I found Blueberry from Seedsman and grew that for my first grow. I LOVED IT.

I liked how it was way more body and way less heady.

Does anyone have any recs for strains that are even more body and less heady than this stain? I want to keep pushing in this direction more.

Virtually any Afghan landrace, you can try some "Pakistan Chitral Kush" by Ace Seeds. PCK has berry flavors, both green and purple phenotypes exist, the green being superior in yield, flavor and effect.

This is a great recommendation. I love PCK from either Ace or Cannabiogen (same stock at one point), or any of the PCK crosses. Also Cannabiogen has Tom Hill's Deep Chunk line, which is an old Afghan line that has been worked on since the 70s. I find these landrace strains have something that modern strains have lost.

With PCK you'll find terpenes that aren't common in modern polyhybrids, top tier vigor and disease resistance, and effects that aren't common in very high THC bud. Once you get over 25% THC, there is very little difference in effect between strains, but if a strain is in the 15-20% range (or lower), you'll be able to smoke/vape enough of it in one sitting to get the full "entourage" effect of multiple cannabinoids/terpenes since you are utilizing more plant matter (ie, higher dosage of terpenes). For example, I never get "the giggles" from very high THC bud...never. But it's a frequent occurrence with landrace or "old school" strains that were bred more for effect than for THC% or "frost." OP mentioned anxiety-with a lower THC strain like PCK he will get less THC and more of the anti-anxiety terpenes (there are quite a few) than he would from modern polyhybrid strains.

Specific terpenes, especially if you want to breed those traits onto offspring with any relative success, landraces are going to be severely missed and looked back upon with nostalgia if the taliban crack down on the hash markets/farmers.



The purple phenotype of PCK for example does produce much more "Linalool", a calming, soothing terpene found in most purple plants.
