Featured MMJ Strain: Sweet & Sour Cindy
Featured Strain: Sweet & Sour Cindy
Sweet & Sour Cindy is a balanced hybrid cross between BOG’s Sweet Cindy and BOG’s Sour Bubble. Some may refer to her as Cinnamon girl. She has a nice grapefruit taste with a smell like sweet tooth or lemon flavor. Sweet & Sour Cindy has a very smooth and full-bodied smoke that has a sweet, fruity, candy-like flavor and aroma that’s soon followed by a rather relaxing Indica dominant high that bears many different medicinal benefits as well. It starts with a slightly euphoric and head buzz that’s eventually teamed up with a calming body sensation that melts away all your aches, pains and stresses without being too sedative or sleepy. Good for pain, depression, stress and anxiety. http://www.patriotcare.org/medical-marijuana-dispensary-opens-in-lowell/http://www.patriotcare.org/featured-mmj-strain-24k/http://www.patriotcare.org/featured-mmj-strain-phantom-cookies/http://www.patriotcare.org/featured-strain-sour-kush/Featured MMJ Strain: 24K

Taste is great very thick milky smoke. More of an indica than a sativa but that is no problem here as I use it to treat the pain associated with arthritis. Would definitely work into my regular smoking routine.” – Zcoult401 “I was blown away by the smell and bag appeal, but the best part about this strain is the high! The hybrid genes makes this strain a great daytime med for nausea n pain relief. It comes on strong and last longer than most.” – DankJank27 http://www.patriotcare.org/featured-strain-sour-kush/http://www.patriotcare.org/featured-mmj-strain-phantom-cookies/Featured MMJ Strain: Sour Kush
Featured MMJ Strain: Sour Kush
Sour Kush is a potent cross between Sour Diesel and OG Kush from DNA Genetics, and a winning combination when it comes to medical cannabis. For MMJ patients looking for daytime pain relief, Sour Kush might be one of the best choices out there. Providing patients with an uplifting experience without overwhelming sedative effects, this hybrid is great for day-to-day consumption. Sour Kush is slightly sativa-dominant, igniting a giggly and euphoric feeling. The indica effects, however, present themselves a few minutes after consumption. This strain is extremely pungent, so it’s best stored in tightly sealed containers.
She is a good all-day strain that won’t knock you down like some of the heavy Indicas, which can be helpful for anxiety. This original cross was made by reversing the OG Kush to pollinate the Sour Diesel.

“Great strain! Within 5 mins my migraine subsided and the whole body pain disappeared. I am very alert but calm afterwards. I would recommend this strain for a day to day pain killer.” – Barbiedoll
“For me to be free of epilepsy depends on the quality of marijuana to relax my mind enough to actually get tired and go to sleep. The THC % has to be at least 20 to even be effective for me and Sour Kush is minimal 20%. After being on 20 plus prescription medications and getting more worse or horrible side …” – Wallito
