This strain is the best ever. I deal with high anxiety and panic attacks and it does the job. It's also very high quality and comes from another famous strain that I've had called AC/DC. I fully disagree with the negatives saying anxiety because I can't smoke full strength strains high thc and this never makes me feel the same way. It's sister Gilda is also amazing
I have become more interested in CBD strains lately and ive been obtaining them from Raven Grass. I first tried 'Gilda' and that felt like a nice warm blanket and provided comfort, really great for wanting to relax after a long day.
I recently got 'Frida', also from Raven Grass, and I'd have to say this strain really provided me with some great relief to my psoriatic arthritis but I got the similar feeling of Gilda, but it was more of a meditative feeling than a lay on the couch and relax feeling. It really helped with anxiety abd felt like a sigh of relief.
I am a cannabis novice, but Frida has already become one strain that we're going to always want to have on hand.
Frida's high CBD content really makes itself apparent in the easy going, quick acting relaxation one gets after just a couple of hits. However, with its higher THC content than some other CBD strains, I feel a bit more fuzziness in the head than with something like ACDC.
My only mild knock on Frida is that despite it being a high CBD strain and an Indica, I still felt a mild heart racing effect which may not happen to people who are less sensitive to THC.
One reason I wanted to use cannabis was for deep relaxation, anxiety, pain, and a good night's sleep, and Frida delivers all three in a lemony, piney tasting package that will be part of our medicine cabinet for a long time to come.
Another high CBD strain lover here. Frida is a charming and disarming lady. I am not sure why it is classified as indica. It certainly is relaxing and calming, but that is due to the CBD.
Anyway, reviews of high CBD strains rarely include "this weed ripped my face off - I was soooo stoned!' That is not the point of high CBD strains. But the example I purchased from The Novel Tree certainly does what it is supposed to do. I have terrible anxiety and stress issues, and Frida knocks that stuff to the curb. And it really puts me in a relaxed, ever so slightly stoned land of comfort.
Cannotonic, and now Frida are my go to stress relievers. Kudos to Raven Grass on this excellent strain.
I smoke this for crohns disease. This was the first time I have purchased this. I originally went into the store to purchase Alien Rock Candy but the lad advised me to try Frida due to its high CBD.
I can assure people I got hit hard by the high even with a small amount. I usually smoke Sour Tsanami so not sure why that never gave me such a high.
I will try again over time to see how it helps with my inflammation.
Big fan of CBD strains and my expectations for them have previously been less nuggy, less sticky, less like the herb I'm used to.. and that's ok because that's the way it is. Then, along saunters ol' Frida with her super dense and sticky nugs looking large like mothers day brunch was the day before thanksgiving. It resembles a haze, like super lemon haze or other. Very enjoyable!
I would call it an all day smoker. For me it was very emotionally calming, soothing, and almost trance-esque without being stony. There was slight stony, like 1 sip off a doobie, but more the underlying feeling. Otherwise CBD effects I'm looking for with calm mind and body.
If you are looking for pain relief and don't want the high, this is the best I have found.
I bought the concentrate -- and found it the best solution for pain and inflammation. Other strains had mixed results -- and I needed something without a high but with a strong CBD.
A friend suggested this strain for my arthritis. He said he didn't get the stoned feeling. Um, I did! It was a bit harsh to smoke, but kicked in within minutes. Super relaxing and pain free evening for me. I will definitely be smoking this before bed more often.
