Final Comments: I’m not sure what else to say that many don’t know about this lovely strain. But I can tell you my world is nothing but pain, stress, confusion and more pain on top of that. OH with a myriad of other issues and I’d be in a reall bummer of a deal if I didnt have these meds man. It’s a very heavy and wildly wierd n thick tasting smoke, great mellow relaxing high and great abilities to lessen and deal with heavier pain level’s. I know pain… and this… Helps!
