I had a big difference in pain was decreasing.

dark purple, beautiful strain. amazing high.

very good for mild pain and stress relief. stacks well also. flavor of cola comes out midway in smoke

this is a great way and relaxing way

 to remove strain and pain
enjoy this beautiful life.

Wow what an interesting strain! When you grind it up it looks like this beautiful reddish purple color. It was a very potent mind racer with a slight body high. Wouldn't recommend for beginners as it induced some paranoia. Overall very high quality and a must try. The effects were distinct from other strains and it just looks gorgeous after grinding.

This is an interesting strain. The buds are very dense, almost spongy and color is dark dark purple. The smell is sweet and flower like. Flower burns nicely, no sting  to throat noticed. A nice body high, tingly legs and feet. My mind feels fine, able to focus but initially a more stoned feel. Relief for back pain and mild inflammation I believe this is a very strong strain because I only had four hits to have powerful effect. Feeling a little sleepy but not knocked out. Not a munchies maker. Feeling content. This strain reminds me of something from long ago a a smoke  from the 1970s?

This strain was just relaxing. Not much psycho-activity. I started to wonder if it was weed. It was relaxing leading me to think it must be high CBD.  I blended it with some sativa which was not so good for pain, and found the combination was excellent. For $5gm, I can improve the pain killing power of other strains.

Looks striking. Good for pain, with a very mild head high. More brittle than sticky. Slight floral smell. I could carry an oz in a paper bag and no one would know. Little vapor and taste, the flavor reminds me of the smell of over-dried tobacco, but with a hint of floral to it. My body completely melted, and was almost entirely pain free. The head effects were very mild. More like chamomile tea than cannabis.  The first go, I was fooled my the mildness of the taste and effects, and found that a bit too much leads to profound sleepiness without the stone.

One of my absolute favorites. Looks like deep purple, almost black roses. Gorgeous. Good for calming down and anxiety before attacks to prevent, and after to wind down. I mix in a little for the daytime to keep me chill, then just this in the evening. Too much makes me sleepy, but it's perfect when I am trying to sleep. 
If goth weed is a thing, this is it. &lt;3

<p>One of the lesser-known strains, this hybrid is a purported cross between <a href="/strains/black-cherry-soda">Black Cherry Soda</a> and <a href="/strains/querkle">Querkle</a>. The flowers have purple-red coloration and are often sticky to the touch thanks to heavy trichome production. Black Dahlia leans toward its indica genetics and delivers strong body effects suitable for insomnia and pain relief.&nbsp;</p>

</div><div class='leafly-legacy-article'><p>Last year we brought you the <a href="http://www.leafly.com/news/offbeat/boo-leaflys-top-5-strains-for-halloween-night">spookiest strains</a> to celebrate Halloween with; this year we’re getting downright horrific. These strains are not for the faint of heart. Hideous creatures, the walking dead, and dismemberment are just a few of the topics we&#8217;ll cover. If you’re into bone-chilling, shiver-inducing terror: sit back, relax, and pull up one of these scary strains, a classic horror film, and enjoy the show!</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md"><a href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/brains-damage"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/leafly-s3/content/these-truly-horrific-strains-are-just-what-you-need-to-celebrate/wv7oZ4drTMO5MZmYH2if_Brains%20Damage.JPG" alt="" /></a><strong><a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/brains-damage">Brains Damage</a></strong></h2>
<p>This <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/">hybrid</a> cross between Acapulco Mexican, <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/indica/mango">Mango</a>, <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/sativa/hawaiian">Hawaiian</a>, and KC 36 won’t leave you zombified, but it will come after your brains! Bred by Holland’s KC Brains, its mellow, <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#!/explore/tags-relaxed">relaxed</a> effects will give you a subtle <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/tags-energetic">energy</a> akin to Romero’s ghouls from <em>Night of the Living Dead</em>: subdued, slow, but totally content to seek fresh flesh from dusk ‘til dawn.</p>

<p>It’s no coincidence that this <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/indica/">indica</a> inspires the sort of <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/tags-creative/">creativity</a> needed to stitch together a creature from the parts and pieces of other living beings. Frankenstein (or Fronkensteen, depending on whom you ask), will give you the inventive spirit to create a monster of your own, but it will quickly soothe you into a <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/tags-happy">happy</a>, relaxed lull that gives way to a good night’s sleep. If you aren’t feeling like harvesting body parts, your night would be just as well spent curling up on the couch with Mel Brooks’ classic Young Frankenstein.</p>

<p>Although this <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/">hybrid</a> is lesser known than the infamous murder of the same name, its effects are no-less potent. While it won’t leave your body severed and mutilated in a vacant lot, it will isolate and relieve chronic <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/symptoms-pain">pain</a>, an irony that isn’t lost on us. Although this hybrid is known to produce <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/tags-euphoric">euphoria</a>, its effects lean strongly indica, and is best used for a Halloween movie marathon.</p>

<p>Whether you’re a diehard metal fan or just enjoy the plight of the undead, this cerebrally-focused <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/">hybrid</a> has everything you need to stimulate your brains(sssss)! This strain is truly multi-faceted: it will get your <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/tags-creative/">creative</a> juices flowing while simultaneously relieving <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/symptoms-stress/">stress</a> and <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/symptoms-depression/">depression</a>.</p>

<p>Unlike its namesake, this strain’s history isn’t shrouded in mystery and mysticism. Have an unprecedented case of the Halloween blues?

These 5 Truly Horrific Strains Are Just What You Need to Celebrate Halloween

This bud is very dark, almost black in color. It is noticeably darker in color than any other bud that sits next to it.
The taste is almost cigar-like, with a smoky strong taste that is not in any way like skunk or 'normal' bud. It's a great after dinner smoke, with a shot of single malt or port wine.
The effects are of course different according to the user, but was enjoyable for me, not in a debilitating way, just in a know-it-is-working good kind of way.

The CBD level of Divine Kind's batch of Dhalia is out of this world. It gets me through tough mornings with my gastrointestinal issues.

First time I tried this strain in wax. I couldn't stop coughing and after that went away, boom I was spacing away and I felt good and happy and pain free. I do enjoy this strain.

Great for pain and sleep. By far one of the best strains out there. Its a head and body high.

This is flat out the best Nighttime strain in the book for me! THC levels regularly at 21%, CBD regularly around 3%, this strain is the best at allowing me to get a good night sleep while controlling my pain, so much so that I regularly use it to ween down further on pain medication at night, it provides so much pain relief. Death Star & my own home grown Mr. Nice Guy are the only other strains that even come close to doing what Black Dahlia does. I wish TGA Subcool would make this the highlight of their seed bank, because it is a Rockstar! If you suffer from severe chronic and acute pain, especially spinal pain, and have trouble sleeping at night, make sure to try this! Ask growers to start growing more of it, dispensaries to start carrying it. It may be expensive also, it is usually $60-100 more per ounce, worth every penny!

My nose found this jar and I had to try some right away.  The taste was not unpleasant, but not what I would call exotic or sexy.

Black Dahlia

<p>A cross between <a href="/strains/purple-urkle">Purple Urkle</a> and <a href="/strains/space-queen">Space Queen</a>, Querkle from <a href="/brands/tga-subcool">Subcool&#39;s The Dank</a>&nbsp;is an&nbsp;80/20 indica-dominant strain that carries a strong grape and berry aroma. Querkle blooms with vibrant lavender hues and a heavy dusting of crystal resin that blankets its bulky <a href="/news/cannabis-101/cannabis-anatomy-the-parts-of-the-plant">colas</a> in a frost-like coat. Heavily euphoric and cerebral, Querkle may be used during the day but is ideal for evening use as it relaxes muscles and&nbsp;guides the mind into sleep.</p>


Querkle

caryophyllene

humulene

limonene

linalool

myrcene

ocimene

pinene

terpinolene

<p>Black Cherry Soda&nbsp;is named after its fruity, soda-like taste and unusually dark purple color. This strain has spawned other favorites like <a href="/strains/black-dhalia">Black Dahlia</a> and <a href="/strains/ace-of-spades">Ace of Spades</a>.&nbsp;It has balanced mind and body effects and it&#39;s&nbsp;a potent medicine that hits without heavy sedation, making it popular among patients treating severe symptoms throughout the day.</p>
