Jean Guy (AAA+)
Jean Guy is a hybrid marijuana strain that is said to be a phenotype of White Widow. It has intensely cerebral effects and a sour citrus smell, and its pastel buds are loaded with golden crystal trichomes. The strain has hints of lemon and pine in its flavor, and its energizing and uplifting effects make it an ideal strain to start the day with. However, the strain's jolting sativa effects may interfere with productivity, as scattered and distracting thoughts may arise. Jean Guy is known for its effectiveness in relieving symptoms of fibromyalgia and cancer, but patients prone to anxiety should use caution due to its typically high THC content.
Purple Ice Wreck (AAA+)
Ice Wreck is marked by small to medium flowers that do little to visually convey the strain’s power. These buds cling together in dense, clustered formations and hold roughly spherical shapes. They have the dense, solid structure associated with indica varieties. Leaves are a dark shade of olive green and are twisted through with vibrant orange hairs (which are actually pistils, botanical structures meant to catch pollen from fertilizing male plants). Finally, true to its name, Ice Wreck is covered in a thick, even blanket of translucent white trichomes, making these flowers very sticky and giving them an icy appearance even when viewed from afar.

Its aroma is reminiscent of a forest after a rainstorm and its flavor is sweet earth and spicy flowers with a mellow herbal tea-like taste. Wasabi's high comes on with a slow creeping feel before launching you into a lifted and energized state with a budding euphoria and tingly buzzy body high that leads to deep relaxation. With its high 13-20% average THC level, Wasabi is often used to treat eye pressure or glaucoma, appetite loss or nausea, spasticity, chronic stress, and chronic pain.
