Damn, bewtween you and Oldmedman. Thats the type of smoke report I like. Could use a lil more info on head/body effects but smell and taste is right up there with bag appeal. You have some perty ass weed. Looks like lucy will be on my next seed list.
Thanks Mr. Smith - I admire your growing skills a lot, so that's meaningful to me.
Well, for me so far, Lucy makes me feel motivated and creative but not too spacey. It's definitely strong weed, and if I vape enough of it I can lose my ability to focus some, but if I don't over do it I get a really happy feeling, with a bit of the giggles, and I feel like I see things more clearly. I've been writing some, and the ideas start flowing better with a little Lucy.
So far, it's not the sort of weed for me that makes music sound better or movies seem more real (I like weed that does that, too). But, I feel like tackling projects, writing, organizing - I also feel... happier! No paranoia for me, no real "trippiness" like they promote. Maybe that's more common with some other phenos?
For body effects, the initial happiness/giggly effect keeps me from even thinking about my physical ailments as much, but even when I do it's a nice buzzy warm body feeling. I've had sligtly better strains for the pain relief part, (in fact I think that both the Lavender and the Skywalker will be good for that), but this is still very good, and the attitude improvement I see really adds to the pain relief part. I really like this as a "daytime" strain so far.
I also find it interesting and important to note that I don't feel like I get the munchies as much with Lucy, nor cottonmouth. Might not be a good strain for someone looking to improve their eating/appetite (cancer, etc.).
Lastly, some strains seem to enhance sex - this isn't one of them for me so far. If anything, it seemed to dull the sensations a bit, which happens sometimes too. But... I lasted forever on it, so my
wife probably likes it for sex...
I dunno, hope this filled in any gaps. One thing I feel like I should note about this strain. OMM and a few others have spoken very highly of it, and I'm loving it so far. I have noticed there are several negative reviews out there for this strain on other sites, and I get the sense that there are at least a few different phenos with some unique characteristics. It might take a few beans to pick out a promising mom, for example. I certainly liked this one, but maybe I was lucky?
This was my first Barney's Farm seed, but I get the sense that their stuff can be a little hit or miss and difficult to grow at times. Take Tangerine Dream, for example - for every one good grow you see on it, there seems to be several bad ones. Yet, it won the Cannabis Cup, so you know those good ones can be had. It seems like when their stuff is good it's great, and when it's not... good luck! I've seen several failed Lucy grows, too, with twisty leaves, poor germination, hermies. In fact, I initially had (2) but one was sickly and stunted from the beginning despite equal treatment in the Flo N Gro so I culled it. I'm glad this other one turned out so well.
Sorry this is so wordy. I'm floating on Lucy as we speak!
