We stopped by Green Cross Caregivers in Denver recently, after filling out some paperwork we asked the clerk to recommend us some powerful, heavy cannabis.  The man took out a couple bottles and especially recommended the Purple Kush for a heavy stone and sleep aid.

These indica buds are very dense and have a deep round flavor, a little harsh out of a pipe but great ground up and smoked in a blunt laced with hash oil.  Heavy in density, this Purple Kush looks dark green with long orange hairs and large purple fan leaves all over the flower.  The man is right, this is a good sedative, didn’t make halfway through my movie.

At 1842 S. Parker Rd in Denver, look for the green cross sign.  It looked like they had a nice selection but we didn’t have time to browse we just asked for their recommendations.  Cheerful staff, in and out in fifteen minutes on my first visit.

Today we sampled BlueBand hybrid from Green Cross Caregivers in Denver.  The BlueBand hybrid an indica dominant blend that features the tasty blueberry flavor and stone but also a good mental buzz from the headband. 

The buds were of medium density and smelled and tasted truly blue.  When crushing up the herb we also experienced a light lemon scent probably thanks to the sativa headband.  This is one of our favorite strains to smoke right now because of it’s flavor and smoothness of the smoke.

We recommend BlueBand as a good midday sample and it’s flavor should be enjoyed to the fullest in a vaporizer, bong with ice catcher or spliff.  We are very satisfied with our first purchase from Green Cross Cannabis.  $55/eight *note this location is not currently accepting credit/debit or check.

We just got a nice batch of hash plant from Colorado Patients First in Longmont.  This herb strain is a 50/50 blend with an earthy citrus scent.  A really nice head high but still functional.  These buds are of medium density with thick orange hairs and should be ground up nicely before smoking… or vape it!  There is a strong hashy taste when smoked in a pipe or joint but flavor is better enjoyed from a water pipe or bong with an ice catcher is my favorite way to smoke this hash plant.

A little pricey at $60/eighth, the stone from this cannabis is long lasting!  After smoking there is a nice euphoric, even intese high followed by a couple hours of good head haze.  Not going to put you to sleep right away so try this strain after a meal or a couple hours before bed.

Yet another bud from Colorado Patients First   Our next review is coming from Denver.  We really like Colorado Patients First in Longmont though, lots of great strains there and welcoming staff.

A while back we picked up some nice looking Island Sweet Skunk which is a blend I think 70/30 sativa.  The buds are of medium density and have some really bright orange hairs.  A fruity but distinct skunky aroma comes when crushing up the buds in the grinder.  This is a very tasty smoke which is smooth and has a light earthy taste. 

This only cost $45/eighth, which is a good value for a skunk strain.  Preferred method of smoking is probably from a large spoon pipe or small water bong.  The disctinct skunk smell really takes presence when the bud is burning. 

 I like the buzz as it does not knock you on the floor which keeps you functional.  Nice herb to smoke in the daytime, highly recommended for patients that want to increase their appetite.  We found this batch of Island Sweet Skunk at Green Medical Referrals LLC in Dacono, Colorado.

Another choice selection from Colorado Patients First we recently sampled the Afghani Kush.  This is a heavy indica blend that is bright lime green and the buds are quite dense and still very sticky.  When smoking this batch of Afghani we picked up a very fruity flavor.  I initially thought, damn this shit tastes like peach cobbler! Certainly one of our most flavorful smokes this week.

Enjoy this bud from a vaporizer or bong.  It wont be easy to crush this weed up in your hands if your going to smoke it in a pipe or spliff so be sure to use a clean grinder.  The crystals on this gooey Aghani are abundant and the fan leaves and thick orange hairs are characteristic of a heavy indica.

We recommend this strain especially for pain relief or sleep aid.  A very stoney high, you’ll want to just pop in a movie and kick back for a couple hours.  At $19/gram this is a nice herb to have in your medicine cabinet.

Just sampled the Purple Lady strain we recently purchased for $60/eight at Colorado Patients First.  This is a sativa dominant herb, the buds look glazed with white crystals.. Not seeing much ‘purple’ in leaf or bud color a little more lime green with lots of orange hairs. The aroma when pinching the bud is a fruity but peppery scent with a touch of skunk. Clean high, very mental, maybe a little trippy it’s a great morning or social smoke if you’re comfortable with your company otherwise it can cause mild paranoia.

Purple Lady should be enjoyed out of a long spoon, bong or spliff.  The smoke is clean and not very harsh.   By far my favorite sampled sativa herb this month!

We also shared a pre-rolled spliffs of this Purple Lady sealed with hash oil we got from CO Patients First, Let me just say, WOW that’s some tasty and potent marijuana!  Each spliff was $15, we enjoyed it in the early afternoon,  I didn’t smoke anything the rest of the day besides a small puff of an indica dominant bud before bed.
