Island Sweet Skunk is definitely one of the more unique strains I've had the pleasure to smoke. The sativa genetics are clearly visible just glancing at these nugs, with spindly stems and loose, fluffy buds. The pleasant aroma almost reminded me of Kahlua with a smattering of tropical fruitiness. Absolutely delectable. On smoking, I was pleased to be hit with a wave of sativa buzziness and became giddy and talkative. The paranoia I often get from sativas was absent in this one as well. One of the happiest and most positive strains I've smoked. A very versatile strain as it was suitable for day and nighttime use for me. Wonderful stuff.
I love the way it makes me feel! So energetic and free feeling.
i like this bud, it taste great through the whole bowl and smells awesome. just opening the bag in my room at it in my room made the whole room smell like skunk. good mind high too
Island Sweet Skunk and Sweet Island Skunk are NOT the same strain. ISS is a Sativa and SIS is a Hybrid. I've grown both. The inclusion of Sweet Island into the Island Sweet review has totally screwed up the characteristics of ISS.
I got this as a free sample from Humanity Collective in Seattle. Don't get me wrong. I love the dispensary, it's the only one I use and I have never had a bad experience with any of their products before.
I tried smoking this strain 3 times just to be sure it was the weed. Every time, within MINUTES I got a panic attack and it lasted for a good hour.
Well, ok i am kind of a rookie when it comes to all these measurements I am a recent patient prescribed for depression, anxiety and adhd. I just received my first prescription today from tilray. My bag says 5.1 thc and 7.6 cbd. I am not a regular smoker but I had a very positive and uplifting experience. I found it dry but have some cure packs to make it perfect for me how I like it. I own a bong so i ground up a small bowl enough for one giant lungful and was delighted by the taste. It was a real tropical almost outer worldly grapefruit flavor. It took a few to kick in but was not expecting to get much of it as usually have the dank crown royal from crop king seeds which runs about 28% thc and 2.5 cbd. I partake about once a week for recreation or sometimes even once a month. Has not been my "thing" since I discovered cocaine, destroyed my life and got better and clean for a long time. Now the reason I ordered it this strain in particular was it is supposed to help with anxiety. For me it did not have this effect lol. It made me feel like I had a few cups of coffee and spent a few hours yammering at myself how nice it was lol. 4 hr time warp for me lol. It is in my opinion an excellent sativa uplifting wholesome do good things strain. Thats how I felt. Now like I said I am not a chronic these days but was back in high school and years after that. I just love the experience I had and it brought back so many memories and good feelings. No real burn out either just general good feeling :):) Relaxed after my deep thoughts and busy rush cleared my thinking. I also ordered warlock which is 10% cbd on my bag cant wait to try that lol. I am experimenting to find whats best but in general gave me an energy buzz and minor anxiety at first just like boon here is are your thoughts lol. Anyway love it hope this helps
Initial Impression:
I enjoyed this particular strain last night in the form of a pre-rolled joint, rolled with "raw" papers from Medicine Man Medical Market in Glendale, CO.
This strain in particular is sticky and sweet. It lives up to the name, the aroma is an earthy undertone, I can't tell if there is a hint of nuts, almost a mild coco-nutty/tropical ambiance to it. The initial bouquet wasn't overpowering or off putting, it was very pleasant. Out of a 10 point scale I would rate the initial contact a 7.5 out of 10.
Taste:
This strain was very nice, smooth and velvety. My palate was pleased, and my taste buds tingled. Out of a 10 point scale I would rate the taste 8 out of 10.
Potency:
I was surprised at how quickly the onset of this high was, as I stated earlier, the initial onset was mellow and comfortable. Out of a 10 point scale I would rate this potency as 6 out of 10.
All things considered:
I would use this strain again, its median score is a 21.5 out of 30, better than average, but not in the aficionado category.
I got this as a free sample from a dispensary in Seattle. This was my ONLY bad experience with one of their products.
Tried smoking it 3 times. Within MINUTES I had a panic attack each time and the panic attack lasted at least an hour each time.
