Smoked a blunt of this, and it's very decent. I can say I enjoyed Green Candy, and it's worth a try!

Be careful with this one. Begin with a small amount and take it easy. If you try and smoke a normal joint the first time, say like a cigarette, you will not finish it and it can cause heeby jeebies. You will literally switch off. But for experienced smokers, you quickly develop a tolerance, by about day 3. I don't think the 17% THC level is correct.

aroma is familar reminds me of citrusy tropical gummibears while taste is almost like a tropical jack herer with a hint of haze. It has a great aroma and flavor profile. effects are easy going for a "sativa" I feel mellow and uplifted and somewhat energetic. heightened senses of course. I was suffering from inflammatory pain and this reduced my pain, also had a little stress and this took the edge off. I do feel positive and humbled.

First go around with this strain was flower, it was like a very sweet tasting Green Crack. Definitely tastes like candy! I've never had Candy Kush on it's own, but I'm guessing the candy tastes comes from the candy kush, duh. This is a great strain for lethargy, depression, stress, nausea, and pain. I wouldn't recommend this for anxiety prone patients. This is the perfect sativa for wake & bake sessions. Or as a pick me up mid day. I love green candy! This time around I got shatter, because honesty I don't smoke flower anymore I just dab. This shatter cost me a whopping $14 a half gram, I love how cheap it is-half grams of wax are starting to cost the same as a gram of flower which is awesome. I traveled 3 hours round trip on the light rail & bus on Sunday bus schedule (one bus an hour) to pick it up. It was well worth the time.

Had some great moments on this strain. Sometimes it brought me a bit too up & wired, but I liked it! Much better consumed outdoors / in the woods than in my apartment.

Super flavorful, and has a fantastic uplifting buzz. Not usually into sativas but this one is perfect. Strong head high with a nice light body buzz.

Holy cow talk about uplifting! I haven't been in the best mood lately someone close to me died. I picked this up while grieving and it made me feel so much better! Colors were more stimulating, everything had a glow to it, and the world seemed like a brighter place. best antidepressant ever

If you have anxiety issues I recommend you either find another strain, or mix it with a heavy Indica to balance it out. Beautiful, sweet, sugary and skunky-pungent smells reel from these compact little nugs. But (and keep in mind, I smoke all day everyday) this stuff just rubbed me the wrong way when smoked alone. I got The Fear, which I hadn't really experienced in awhile. It mellowed out after I smoked a little snapper of something that was of heavier Indica stock. However, if you happen to be a big Sativa lover, well, this bud's for you! ;)

love this strain. the only other stativa dominant strain I've had that's helped with back pain as much as the 501st Street strain. both helped with my back pain better than any other. seems like it could have a bit more of a tarpon level. doesn't have that great pungent flavor like Gorilla Glue. totally different ballgame there tho. however taste is still fresh, crisp, sweet, pine, and a green taste. the smell of a fresh cracked nugglet is sweet and earthy. love this strain In the day but in a pinch does work for sleep if u overindulge that is lol. but deff a day time smoke and a goodnone at that!!!
