1. Mimosa (Hybrid)

This strain is truly stunning as it glistens and glimmers when placed in both sunshine and artificial light.

Mimosa is an exceptional sativa-dominant hybrid strain that has more than just good looks going for it. Users adore this strain because of its vibrant, frosty appearance, fruity yet zesty aroma, and incredibly energizing/uplifting effects.

Origin:

Mimosa is a cross between the sativa Clementine and the indica Purple Punch. It is a masterful creation that combines the positive elements of both its parent plants. The most common consumers of the Mimosa strain reside along the West Coast, especially in California and Oregon.

Features:

With an average THC content of around 19-22%, a little goes a long way with Mimosa. Novices should consume only a small amount to see how they tolerate this strain’s effects. More experienced cannabis smokers, as if they were drinking the cocktail, will know when they’ve had enough.

The taste of the flower is no doubt part of what makes it so charming. Delicious notes of zesty oranges and other citrus fruit amplify and enhance Mimosa’s sweet initial flavor. The strength of the Purple Punch strain further complements Mimosa’s refreshing taste. Together they produce a combination that is similar to the famous poolside alcoholic beverage. Those who taste this strain agree that it’s just as delicious as the citrusy cocktail.

Appearance is the second major factor that makes Mimosa so desirable, because the buds radiate intense beauty that leaves witnesses in complete awe.

Although the buds are mostly green, they exhibit elements of vibrant red that infuse with the plant’s bright orange pistils. A dense coating of trichomes on this plant’s sugar leaves almost resemble a light dusting of snow on a winter’s morning.

Uses:

Mimosa is a popular choice for sufferers of chronic stress, depression, chronic pain, cramps, and anxiety, due to its potency. This strain can boost your mood too, which will leave you feeling more positive and content.

2. The Black (Indica)

The Black is a potent indica notorious for its dark, stormy, and moody appearance. This strain is almost entirely indica with a 90:10 indica to sativa ratio. Consumers of this strain say that it helps with relaxation, and can settle the nerves. Its latter effects are so potent that you may feel sedated and sleepy. The Black can also increase your appetite and is said to be effective at relieving a whole host of painful conditions.

Apart from these qualities, The Black is stunning to look at too. With its deep dark hues thoroughly entrancing more than a few who have laid eyes on it. The fact that it smells phenomenal and tastes fantastic too are just added bonuses.

Origin:

Entering the cannabis scene back in the 1980s, The Black did not begin to gain popularity until much later. It finally received the recognition it deserved in 2008 when High Times listed it as one of the Top 10 Cannabis Strains for that year. Since then, the buzz around this strain has continued to grow. With such a unique and foreboding appearance, it was difficult to miss this strain on a dispensary shelf.

Expert breeders at BC Bud Depot created this dark and mysterious strain. The Black originates from California and Vancouver Island in Canada and is now available all over North America.

Features:

With a THC content that sits at about 18-20% on average, The Black is undoubtedly not a mild strain. It is pretty potent, so novice smokers should start small.

The Black has a prominent and pungent aroma that reeks of grapes and other fruits. These sweeter scents are followed swiftly by spicy and earthy notes which tantalize the tongue. Hitting smooth and velvet-like when fired up, the smoke will roll right down your throat and into your lungs.

On the inhale, there are detectable notes of berries and fruits, along with a blend of spices and pepper-like hints. On the exhale, users say that The Black has a sweet, sugary aftertaste.

The appearance of The Black is undoubtedly its most unique feature. The densely-packed deep purple and black buds have an other-worldly appearance and quality. In between, the black masses are orange pistils, which juxtapose significantly from the dark shades around them. This strain’s frosty trichomes give this already gorgeous flower an extra glow and shimmer.
