I've suffered from a seizure disorder for about ten years now. About a year ago, I stopped taking the pills they were feeding me and got my Medical Marihuana Card. The majority of the cannabis that I've smoked since I quit taking pills and picked up the pipe has been Flo. It's been a year and I haven't had a seizure yet.

I really enjoy Flo. Being a Sativa-head, I find myself naturally inclined to select Sativa, or Sativa-dominant, strains. I ended up picking Flo by accident since the dispensary was out of Bruce Banner, my original selection. Flo didn't let me down. In flower form, this strain smells like candy. It's the sweetest smelling strain I've come across - so sweet, you'd think the trichomes were actually grannules of sugar. They are not - I can assure you of that. The smoke is very smooth, very easy, and never really made me cough a whole lot. It tasted different than it smelled - it actually tasted just like a diesel when I smoked it. And, in fact - it FELT like a diesel when I smoked it. Even better. From the perspective of the high, this strain provides a good, head-heavy high with nice body effects to balance it all out. It's an energetic strain, but this is a fantastic Sativa for an anxiety patient, as I never once felt any sort of anxiety on this bud. It won't completely waste you - but you'll feel really darn great when you smoke this. I'd like to note, as well: my creativity while I smoke this strain is off the charts. This is going to become my go-to whenever I want to write a song. Highly recommended.

Wow, my left breast was diagnosed a couple months ago with breast cancer. Flo has me feeling better than I have in the two months. What a relief, my body is relaxed. I did not realize how much tension I have been holding. The future looks better and easier at the moment. Wow.
