Starbuds - Kelowna

7/28/2016
I've been to their Westbank location a couple times, and I've always been happy with the quality I get from them. But, I'm SO happy to have a dispensary a small trip from where I live! Now, I don't have to travel 30 - 45 minutes in traffic to get my medicine! I have troubles with strains in the past, and I had some complicated questions for the staff. They took the time to listen to me, they helped me find a good strain for my symptoms, and they helped me understand the product better. I even know about their medicinal oils and pills. They were very friendly, patient with me and my questions, and they were awesome right to the end. I would definitely go again, just for the customer service. Today, I picked up some Chemo shatter, and I have to say, I was WRONG about the strain, before! I had Chemo shatter from another dispensary in Rutland, and I ended up with a hybrid of SOMETHING that made me more anxious than anything. But, after looking over Chemo very carefully, they verified that it's supposed to be an Indica, and they said if I had trouble with it, I could call them up and they'd make it right. So far, I'm VERY happy with the strain, as I've had two very hot dabs, and I'm pain-free, happy, relaxed, and very appreciative for their help! The shop is a little empty and barren, at the moment, but they only opened up a short while ago. I'm looking forward to even seeing some events in the future, like for 7/10 or 4/20! :)

Whenever I see my local dispensary selling this strain, I make sure to get some! It is so amazing, and I love how relaxed and chill I feel. I also helps with my nausea more than some other Indicas. It's definitely a hard hitter, but it's perfect when you're usually an energetic person and are being forced to relax for your medical rest.

It hits hard, and it's great, overall. The flavours are a little pungent, for my personal taste, but still very interesting. The one thing I dislike about this strain is that it does nothing for my appetite. It makes me hungry, but it doesn't help my extreme nausea. So, I end up feeling ready to eat a horse and then throw it up. Not very nice. Also, this strain was very hard on my throat. I use concentrates, so I thought it would be a little easier. Not so, at all. I'm also don't enjoy how muddled my head feels with this. The strain really does help with sleep, but it also adds a headache in, for me. It was the same thing with Chocolate Fondue (a strain I had in flower form that gave me headaches).

This is, so far, my favourite strain for all my medical worries. Pain, nausea, insomnia, and anxiety! All gone with a puff of this heavenly Indica. The taste is a bit harsh at times, if you take too much, but that is to be expected from most strains I've had so far.

As nice as the feeling it gives you is, I ended up with a terrible headache. It's helped people I know, but both my brother and I get headaches with this strain.

It's a very nice strain, but it's VERY hard to take. It's definitely not one you want to take a heavy hit on. Your lungs will thank you for taking smaller tokes. I use it in a concentrate, and I find it smokes VERY quickly, which other concentrates don't smoke half as much as this strain. It makes it easy to get a quick toke in, but it's definitely hard for most people (not a strain I'd recommend as a starter). It's hard for me even while using a vape pen AND a bong together (the vape smoke goes through the water to make it easier to take), and it's STILL hard on the lungs. But, it definitely is worth the coughing, if you accidentally inhale too much at a time. I can get a headache from this, if I'm not careful, but otherwise, it feels really nice. It's the kind of strain you want if you just want to veg out on the couch and watch something funny. I can fall asleep to this strain, sometimes, and other times, it makes me want to do something...but mostly, I end up laying in bed watching YouTube for a 'staycation'. This strain will DEFINITELY give you the munchies. I feel REALLY hungry after toking on this, while most of the time, I feel munchies but can ignore them. THIS strain makes you feel like you need to eat. REALLY good for people who have trouble eating because of nausea or anorexia. :)

I really like how laid back and giggly this stuff makes me. It has a VERY interesting taste (spice and pepper, I think?), but it goes down smoothly, for the most part. Some tokes have been a little hard on me, but that's only if I take too much at a time. This is a favourite for sitting down, watching Youtube, and falling asleep with vivid and fantastical dreams. I love sleeping with this stuff, and it's nice that it actually helps me with my terrible insomnia. Before taking cannabis, I used to be up until 4 - 6 AM on average, tossing and turning or doing whatever I could to fall asleep. But, since taking it, I can fall asleep within ten minutes of my head hitting the pillow, and I sleep soundly with wonderful dreams! This stuff, especially, makes my dreams amazing! It's definitely not one you want to take for the daytime. Haha! I will, however, totally recommend this for pain, as well. I have severe fibromyalgia, and this helps with my muscles. I can literally feel them cooling down and then melting. It's a wonderful sensation.

Overall, it does nicely for other people, but when I took it, if I didn't get ENOUGH, I ended up hyper and staying up all night cleaning the whole bloody house. If I got enough, I was fine for about an hour or so before I'd end up (again) hyper. For myself, I'm the sort of person that gets lulled by caffeine and hyped up on activities that normally relax, such as bubble baths or meditation. Also, when it wore off, in the morning, I found myself even MORE stressed than I had been normally. Not sure if it was because of this strain or just cannabis in general. It tried to put me into a never-ending cycle of cannabis, happy, freak-out, repeat.

It's a really good strain, most likely one I could use for sleep. I love it for its relaxing and sleep-inducing qualities. However, I use cannabis for severe pain from fibromyalgia, and this particular strain didn't do enough for my pain. It's great for probably mild to moderate pain, but for severe pain, I think it falls a little short. I get too much of a head-high before my body follows. It also gives you the munchies, and while that's great for people who don't need to worry about their diets, I have severe IBS/IBD, so eating certain things INCREASES the pain. The munchies always make it impossible to ignore all the foods that I have to avoid (I avoid a LOT of foods, most of them comfort foods). It's a good strain, overall, but for someone who wants high pain relief with a clear head for productivity, this isn't quite the strain I'd like.
