Northern Ice Medical Marijuana Strain Review

From:  AMCH

Grade:  B

Plant Type:  Indica-dominant hybrid, Northern Lights #5 x Ice

Price:  $50/8th

Appearance:   A bit fuzzy with different shades of light green flower.  Scattered hairs are very orange, and the nuggets are very yellow, and some light-purple, when revealing the internodes.

Aroma:  Has complex smells of flowers, ginger, little hash and skunk.

Taste:  A bit of a grapefruit taste type of taste with a dash of pepper.  Leaves a citric and earth after-taste.

Medicine Effects:  It kicked in very quickly with a mind tingling head effect that kept me somewhat functional, but has a zoning-out effect as the duration progresses.

Medicine Length:  Medium. 1.5 – 2 hours

Medicinal Use:  (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  This medication relieves minor body aches, but wasn’t great when my back pains were at its worst.  Neck tension feels much looser, and greatly increases appetite.

Overall:  Its features are not the flashiest, but really does appeal to the general public.  The Northern Ice is definitely a beautiful – light colored strain, and has beautiful floral smells coming from them  A great medical strain due to its potency, but didn’t last quite long enough.  It makes my eyes feel slightly heavy, but didn’t give me cotton-mouth as bad as some of the other strains.

Sunset Kush Medical Marijuana Strain Review

From:  AMCH (Alternative Medicine on Capitol Hill)

Grade:  B+

Type: Hybrid (White Widow x Mystery Kush)

Price:  $50/8th

Appearance:  (8/10) Dense lime-green nugs with fair bud to leaf ratio, and powdery crystals falling off everywhere.

Aroma:  (8/10) I had no idea this bud was going to smell so good.  An explosion of berries and sweet candy aroma emits when handling the nugs.  Smells kind of like fruity pebbles with kush milk.

Taste:  (5/10) Smoke goes down real smooth with a touch of fruity and earthy tastes – a bit charred.

Medicine Type:  Makes the mind feel at ease with a mellow head high.  Has a great tranquil body aspect that kicks in, and does not induce couch-lock. An adventure and conversation medicine.

Medicine Length:  Medium. 1.5 – 2 hours

Medicinal Use:  (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  A must have strain for patients looking for appetite inducing effects.  Gives me really bad cotton mouth and dehydration.  Good body relaxer, but my back pain never seemed to melt completely away – mild pain reliever.

Overall:   Sunset Kush has good looks, but the most enjoyable characteristic is the aroma.  It smells so sweet, yet, sophisticated, I can’t help but keep sniffing it.  It delivers a potent medicine which mellows in to a relaxing upper body high.  This is a very interesting smoke, that is sure to stink up your car on the ride home.  Could easily be called the Sunrise Kush, good morning medication.
