New Strains Alert: White Lightning, Stardawg, Orange Skunk, and Candy Cane

My best strain for body relaxation. I take 4-5 hits before bed and my body start to be relax and my muscles become paralyzed. I start to feel my neck become warm and my head are light ! this is a very good muscle relaxant and perfect  for light to medium pain. be careful. the biggest side effect is MUNCHIES !! SUGAR !! 

Got this strain and was instantly tooken aback by how crystal-y it was. The nugs were tight and, quite literally, FROSTED with a beautiful layer of sparkling THC. First hit out of the bong was smooth and very good tasting. This is a strong indica so it has some couch lock effects, but overall very enjoyable. Happy, euphoric, music sounded very good.

Beware tho! You MUST be around a copious amount of food when consuming this strain. It will give you the munchies like never before.

great strain (almost) overall. flavor and smell are quite sweet and minty, very pleasant. the high of this itself is relaxing, euphoric, though mood swings may occur. paranoia was a frequent negative side effect, though not many others were noticed. on the bright side, this strain definitely helps with a low appetite, along with my menstrual cramps I've found as well, and made me a whole load happier.

Very earthy, yet candy like strain. Perfect for late nights, and hanging out with friends, this strains effects are felt after the first hit.

Super sleepy. I have been cropping this strain for a while and currently growing for my girlfriend in hydro set up. This plant grows some crazy crystal-bud. 

I have also grew white widow and that was hard as hell but candy cane will put you to sleep like a baby. 

Currently growing strawberry kush and candy cane. One thing about candy cane grows like thunder from veg to bud. Very fast maturing plant especially from new seeds.

I grew this strain this Spring. It has a wonderful white and red dusting of resins and hairs that make for beautiful buds. A little skunky , but the taste is of sweet mango and a little mint floral taste. The high is euphoric and uplifting. Makes me a little creative and energy high versus the couch effect. Low stress and relaxing. I liked this strain , will grow again.

It actually smells like candy canes! Also, I found this strain quite potent. Where it usually takes me a couple bowls to feel any real effects, I could feel this before I even finished one!! A new fave for sure.

Candy Cane

<p>The Mango cannabis strain has been around since the early 1960s. In 1991, it was crossed with <a href="/strains/kc-33">KC 33</a> to give us the current Mango strain. Its buds have been known to grow very large, about the size of a softball, and can be up to a foot and a half in length. The foliage turns to a deep red/purple color with a smell and taste of sweet mango. Mango takes 9 to&nbsp;11 weeks to flower.</p>

<p>Don&#39;t let its intense name fool you: AK-47 will leave you relaxed and mellow. This sativa-dominant strain mixes <a href="/strains/south-american">Colombian</a>, <a href="/strains/mexican">Mexican</a>, <a href="/strains/thai">Thai</a>, and <a href="/strains/afghani">Afghani</a> varieties, bringing together a complex blend of flavors and effects. AK-47 may deliver a steady and long-lasting cerebral buzz that will keep you mentally alert and engaged in creative or social activities. While its scent is sour and earthy, its sweet, floral notes can only be fully realized in the taste.&nbsp;</p>
