it's gotta get you high!
if it gets you stoned, i fucking can't stand it! that's MOST of the weed out there on the streets and most of the stuff that other consider "bag appeal"
- sticky with resin buds
- rock hard nugs
- brick wall roadkill skunking (don't get me started on diesels! LOL)
are all negative things! i'd HONESTLY rather smoke mexican brick weed that at least gets you a little high than the stickiest "dank" in most towns. flavors are a nice TREAT, but only if they're accompanied by a fun buzz that doesn't impair & depress you as indicas do me. yes, grape flavored super cali haze is not just delicious, but also has a nice euphoric buzz you can actually do something besides melt in your chair on, but it STILL can't compare to what i'd call the "ultimate" bag appeal strain, columbian gold.
that was the first strain i ever smoked and is still the best because it didn't just get you high (i STILL think the light floaty feeling you'd get on that is where the term getting high originated), but it also heightened ALL of your senses. it could make TV look 3D, music sound live, junk food taste orgasmic and the stupidest shit fall out of your chair funny. i've smoked a couple really good strains that are close like really potent haze x skunk by high quality seeds, but nothing i've tasted compares to the gold standard. not only that, but by today's BACKWARDS fucking standards, misinformed (even brainwashed) smokers would turn their nose up at it if they saw a bud of it because it was generic pale green (not girdled for the gold color), the buds were fluffy (and super easy to break apart with your finger... i DESPISE rock nugs you need a razor, grinder or sledgehammer to be able to smoke) and not at all sticky with their TINY fuzz hairs (but don't let that fool you the shit wasn't potent! 4 one hitters would fuck you up & hurt you!) and the smell was generic weedy with hints of pine and the taste kinda minty weedy.
the bottom line is that columbian gold buds were super easy to break apart for one hitters that freakin' burn properly and when you did blaze some, you'd be high as a kite and that's ALL that matters. blueberry? everyone else considers THAT to be "the best strain in the world", but it doesn't impress me in any way. the flavor is weak and not very authentic and it gets you stoned which must be avoided at all costs.
even though i can't stand the taste of black licorice and smoking expansive woofing durban poison gives me dry heaves, i'd be willing to put up with those 2 negatives because at least that shit gets you high. as far as flavors go too, that one's candy flavor is way more authentic than blueberry. it's literally like smoking a disgusting stick of licorice.
for now, until i find something even trippier (am going to test world of seeds' 75% columbian gold soon) haze skunk is my favorite bud even if i don't care for it's yucky cigar wrapper with hints of ashtray flavor because it's a wicked potent long lasting high that not only got me on a diet by being so motivated i could just tune hunger pangs out until i noticed i lost 5 pounds or more, but it ALSO got me off my 6 pack of 16s a night habit cold turkey so i don't wake up burping and then choking on fucking reflux every morning. were it not for their violent names, jack the ripper & killing fields sound like 2 of the best smokes around, but i also love delicious super cali haze as well as mellow, but totally energy neutral blissed out fun fun fun 8 miles high too. i only tested that one in early flowering. it hinted that it might get really close to a columbian gold high as it's precise body control buzz was in the same kinda ballpark as gold's helium balloon feet effect. either way, that was the first strain i smoked that truly got me high & that loved music in a long time.
i really like joey weed's C99, but that one is too energetic to do anything but vigorous activities. it wants to keep your mind & body too busy to chill out on tunes on. it was also too clear headed to be what i'd call a true high. you need at least a little psychoactivity for that. haze skunk is the best senses & reality heightening strain grown indoors i've tried so far. i'll try some other indoor hazes and 75% gold to see if anything's better, but if that was the only thing in the world you could get, i'd never complain the way i do all that fucking nothing but make you tired shit that pollutes almost every street.
