I got these two on Saturday so this review is based on 5 days' use:
Power plant by Together Pharma
Popcorn buds, brownish colour, very dry, grinds to a dust almost like keif. The effects from this 15.6% THC strain are quite underwhelming for me. The only effect I notice is feeling quite sleepy, which is not what I want for daytime use. The search for an effective daytime strain continues!
5/10
Herijuana 18/1 (Grow pharma) This
has a nice relaxing feel and gently sends me off to sleep.
I have chronic insomnia and with Adven EMT1 (19%T) I got like 3 hours sleep but with the Herijuana I am getting around 5 hours.
I also like how Herijuana helps me feel calm and relaxed and within 20 mins or so of going to bed I fall asleep nicely.
With Adven 19 it was like a sledgehammer of sedation, almost like forcing me to sleep, doesn't feel natural and can actually increase my anxiety and slightly racy thoughts.
The Herihuana is really quite different, a gentle relaxation and happy feelings before falling asleep in a way that feels natural.
It's also a better quality bud than the Power Plant, nice green colour and bigger nugs.
7/10
Summary:
To be honest I'm feeling a bit disappointed with my first script from Cantourage. Maybe I was expecting too much given all the glowing reports about the new strains.
It seems I've ended up with the weakest/low quality ones I hope it's not a case of doctors pushing the poorer quality strains to new patients, which is the same as what Sapphire seemed to do with Adven.
I'm also partly blaming myself, I wanted to get the purple dog and Fotmer T23 but the doctor seemed to know a lot about the different strains so when he recommended these ones I was happy to go along.
Also want to add that I have quite high tolerance and someone else might have a better experience with these strains. They are NOT awful like how I would describe some MC strains I've had, these are much neater, better looking and better tasting buds. They're just a bit weak for me, especially the Power Plant.
Thanks for this review. I am also disappointed with the Power Plant and how dry, dusty and sedating it is. Definitely not a daytime stain! Even at 175C it's combusting and going black which is definitely not right. So I'm still on the search for a decent daytime strain for pain.
Great review. Sorry to hear the Herijuana 18% hasn't worked out for you. Imo I wouldn't say it's weak or poor quality atall though✌️It's a quality strain for some but maybe not for others. I find it very sedating more so than the Fotmer which I also have and way more sedating than the Khiron Hindu Kush that I was stuck with for months before moving clinics.
If you look up the strain information for this strain too it is meant to have no taste or smell really so was bang on to what I experienced but really does work.
As I say though each strain works differently for each person. Hope you manage to get on a strain that will help you out. Maybe look at the LA Sage as I have that for day time but the more you have the more sedating that becomes and it's a nice smell and taste.
Yeah I felt similar about the hero 16 I got. I’m new to knowing % and I thought my tollerence was lower than it is I suppose.
Although it is weak I also find it to be quite useful for sleep and find it quite sedating I just find myself wishing I could turn up the volume on the THC.
