As we finish off April and look towards May, I am astonished how much I learned from last month. But, I am also energized to move onto a new month. A new month of unlimited possibilities and unlimited prosperity. And to celebrate both events, the end of one month and the beginning of a new one, I chose a big bold sativa, Purple Tangie.. This big, bold, beautiful strain was created through crossing the mouthwatering Tangie strain and a "secret" Purple strain. Not only did I find this strain stunningly beautiful, but so did the LA HIgh Times in 2016, awarding Purple Tangie 1st Place for Best Medicinal Sativa Concentrate at the Los Angeles High Times Cannabis Cup.

The aroma and flavor of Purple Tangie is all about its Tangie parent-with bold citrus notes, including lemon and oranges scents and flavors. It’s effects are also about its Tangie parent-with long-lasting and uplifting effects, which kick in almost immediately after the first few puffs and are long lasting. Purple Tangie’s effects begin with a rush of euphoria, then the overall feelings of well being takeover, leaving you feeling cheery, thinking happy thoughts and grinning from ear to ear. This strain is perfect for welcoming in a new month and a new season by giving you a new found zest for life and filling you with new energy, productivity and focus!

Last month taught me a lot about patience and trust that everything is always working out for my highest good, including my cannabis choices. So, I wasn’t surprised when my next strain did exactly what I needed it to do-put me out at the end of a long day! And that heavy hitter was Kush Kush Death Valley Og, an indica dominant hybrid, not to be confused with Death Valley OG, a rare sativa strain.

Kush Kush Death Valley Og was created by crossing San Fernando Valley x Jedi Kush ( SFV x Death Star ). The result of that cross is exactly what you would expect-a heavy handed indica that is not subtle-it takes you down quick and expertly. Its flavor is similar to most Kush strains-skunky, lemony, piney and hashy.

This strain is what anyone who wants to turn off the world, turn inward and get connected with themselves needs. It put me out but also allowed me to create peace in my heart and my mind. How amazing was that. If you find Kush Kush Death Valley Og pick it up and then allow it to help you to let go of your past and anything else that is holding you back in your life and go away for awhile…

Happy May! May it bring you peace, balance, love, abundance and most of all, good weed!
