I can handle some sativas, but others just makes me too trippy and i dont like not to have control on what going on in my brain. But i do sativas, as i like hybrids with a mixed buzz, but im mainly a indica man. My ThaiPassion which are semi-auto has that great sativa buzz with out the racyness and paranoia like feelings that i hate so much.
Mate, do you recall the specific strains that bothered you? i really think I'm onto something with it being the terpene profile responsible for this,... My strongly Sativa-dom. strain experience with both buds I bought and grew has shown only a few to be truly jittery, heart-racing, twitchy-head trippin'
.... I like these, under certain circumstances only, and the heart racing, I can pass on altogether,...
First on that list is Vortex! -- Holy crap, that stuff is not for clowns and rookies, at least not the batches I got... Very psychoactive, an electric-humming buzz that can get a bit out of hand when overindulged! Crushing potency too,...
Malawi Gold and Red Congolese were nicer, but still highly energizing for me,... that shit has you scrubbing the toilet at 2am-
--and liking it!
... my friends Lambsbread variant is like this too,... Not sure at all what she really is though, but certainly not a pure Old school landrace Lamby, that equatorial Sati' would never finish in time....She can finish here in coastal central CA in plenty of time.
Both the Acapulco Gold pheno's I got from Barney's were stellar, but pretty different in aromatics and build.... The bushy lean fingered one was my fav', narrow frosty med. density buds, tons of them, with a great floral sweet banana bubblegum aroma,... Nice elevating high,... the other grew much more hybrid-like, denser bud, strongly metallic (really trippy, like tin stuck in your nose!) citrus aroma, some overlap in floral notes, but this girl was like bad biker speed for 6 weeks after drying!
First try of the smoke was one of the worst BP raising, heart thudding, skull-fuzzing highs I've had to date! Full-on jitters, man.... After that she calmed down and was much more enjoyable, but a couple peeps got bad buzzes on her....
Hmmm, who else,... Oh, DP's Think Fast (Power Plant x Think different, AK47 origins I believe) was a joy to grow and smoke,.. she's a "fast version" auto x photos F1 cross, similar to sweet Seeds F1FV line.... same season I had my first Haze genetics, Cannalope Haze... Also very nice, uppy-trippy high, but was expecting some jitteriness, but she had none... more toilet cleaning at 2am though!
....... Oh, though only 70% Sativa, Sweet's Psicodelicia was a total treat too, Nepali sativa genetics mainly,........ Last years Female Outdoor Grapefruit is bomb-diggity happy weed, trippy spacey high but not edgy....
For auto's, that GHx x C99 could get you bug-eyed if taken early....otherwise a great Sati' auto!
...Wild Thai Ryder is excellent,..... Mephisto Fugue State, ditto,...
In fact, only auto that was weirdly twitchy is an unreleased cross Super Blueberry, Short Stuff,... testers were sent out, and the pheno I got was different from the other folks,.. little berry aroma, much more of the Amnesia/Haze side, and that stuff even 8 months later can still give a fiercely stimulating high, one of the strongest auto's I've had to date...
awesome Stick, robust war club colas with a purple hair dye job no less! Lovely,... only had one two plants do this, El Nino and Waxi's weird CBD cross Green Angel,...
Nice choices too,... DD is a fun strain, especially if you get one of the deep purple pheno's, she can look like she was dipped in ink!
Tobe! Glad to see you about mate,....
