Northern Lights

Overview:

Northern Lights has been a popular strain for decades, being one of the purest indicas on the market. While it is believed that Seattle was the originator of the strain, it was not found until Sensei Seeds in Holland began marketing it in 1985. The body-numbing strain is known for its enticing sweet and spicy smell and flavor, as well as the deep relaxation that it evokes. It flowers in approximately forty-seven days, making Northern Lights one of the faster-growing indicas available. It is responsible for parenting some of the greatest strains in the world, including Shiva Skunk, Sour Diesel, and even Super Silver Haze. Due to its relaxing nature, Northern Lights is best used at night or as a cure for insomnia. If you are a patient due to chronic pain, the strain and its curative properties may be the perfect fit for you.

I Got High on Delta-8 THC for a Week to See How It Was Different from Regular THC Weed

By now you have heard about Delta-8 THC and the huge push to have it shipped and sold across state lines. You may be asking yourself questions such as what is Delta-8 THC, does it get you high like regular weed, how is it legal, and why are so many states now banning it or making it illegal. I wanted to see what all the fuss was about, so I decided to only use Delta-8 THC for a week and see how it compares to smoking and eating the “real deal” marijuana products with regular old THC in them. So, what happened and what was it like to do hemp-based Delta-8 THC for a week and why would someone switch to from regular THC to Delta-8?

Battle Royale - Arizer Extreme Q vs Volcano Vaporizer

At first glance both of these contenders in our Battle Royale are rather impressive to look at. Aesthetically, the Volcano vaporizer not only looks tough but is feels like it is really built to last, and it also has a somewhat sleek and contemporary look to the design.

High Rollerz - Weed Meets Jiu-Jitsu

I do hope that we see more of these kinds of events. We have to come to a point in history where we say “enough is enough!” The government and politicians had close to eighty years trying to “figure out” the whole weed-shtick and it’s simply time to remove all of the ‘penalties’ associated with consumption and personal growing. We are clinging to policies that were invented by criminals in the 1970s which resulted in horrendous institutionalized crimes against humanity – all in the sake of keeping drugs off the streets? Perhaps it’s time we shed the entire “tough on drugs” approach to life and understand that some people will always do drugs – whether it’s legal or not. Why punish people – like Nick Diaz – for choosing cannabis as their main means of relief? Why stop athletes from making beneficial decisions about their own bodies?
