Here’s my smoke report on Star Cookie from Top Dawg Seeds. GSCxStardawg. 6 week cure. The dominant smell is peppery, like black pepper. Followed closely by pine and finishing with a sweet smell. It’s a frost monster. Pure crystalline beauty. Even at six weeks of curing and burping the jars, the buds have a consistency of a hunk of bubblegum. It absolutely chokes my grinder. The smoke burns smooth and cool, it’s easy on the throat. Medium expansion in the lungs. A bit of coughing but in that welcome kind of way. The taste is void of pepper but the flavor of sweet piney is the dominant flavor. There’s another flavor there too, but that flavor is best described as a feeling of super potent weed. That flavor that says “take one too many hits and you’ll be hiding under the covers”. The sweet piney taste lingers for a long time on your tongue. Thick smoke, can’t seem to breathe it all out with one breath. It’s an uncommon flavor, non generic. Not skunky at all. Just that taste and smell of strength.
Buzz kicks in fairly quickly. Real fast in fact. Had me feeling like Spock in no time. Captain, I think I need a bike ride. Half way around the block and this buzz is slamming into me like a Mac truck. Kept thinking my front tire was flat. Get off the bike, check tire, tire fine. Get back on bike and feeling every crack and pebble in the asphalt. Damn I’m stoned. Did you want to be this stoned? I better get home. Yes, safer at home. Damn these trees are beautiful. Get back home. Damn this shit is potent. Sit down for a minute. Now I’m seeing animals in my tile floor that I’ve never seen before. No shit, a fully detail lions head.....strange I’ve never noticed that before, but there it is. Body is feeling zero pain, feels like my joints and muscles are lubricated. I feel like the Tin Man that just got oiled by Dorthy. Kick back on the bed. Bed feels better than ever. Let’s watch a little TV. Funniest shit I’ve ever watched. Laughing my ass off. Adventure Time. Why is that shit so funny?
Good strong buzz for a solid three hours. I did have some serious Innerspective feelings, some of them were heavy duty and uncomfortable. For example, the buzz seemed to find it necessary to show me how it would feel to receive a bad diagnosis from a doctor. Weird right? I know, tell me about it. This strain speaks. Overall it was a happy, laughing, beautiful buzz...... but with a little seriousness mixed in for perspective.
Several hours later the munchies kicked in. They kicked in hard! Hyperactive munchies. Couldn’t turn those fuckers off either. I was eating shit I hardly ever eat..... and it all tasted amazing! Man, I got into everything. Big ass plate of stir fried chicken, granola bars, Raisin Bran. Munchies would cease for maybe ten minutes and then come marching back with force, demanding a plate full of saltines covered in Nutella and a big glass of cold milk. Fuck me running. The munchies didn’t quit until I finally fell asleep. And that’s the other part of the buzz.... kept me awake for a long time. I guess there’s enough sativa in this strain to keep me awake. Relaxing, no couch lock, but no sleeping either. Up til 2am, and I’m one of these early to bed types. Had the next day off, so it was ok.
Overall, enjoyable buzz. Nothing subtle about it though. You’re going on a ride with this one. It’s a keeper for me. Forgive the long winded report, but it was required to be accurate.
Stay Well Friends,
Dude
