1. Blue Borealis
- Type: Hybrid
- THC: ~14%
- Effects: Subtly sedative with creative energy
A cross between Blue steel and Triangle Kush, Blue Borealis is a true wonder. This strain bursts with fruit-flavored tropical notes followed by lingering hints of spicy berries. Even though Blue Borealis is a hybrid strain, it tends to lean more on the energetic side of the equation. Most people love this strain because it offers a good pick-me-up emotionally and creatively while being only mildly sedating when all is said and done.
2. Phoenix
- Type: Hybrid
- THC: ~12%
- Effects: Calming happiness with a kick of mental energy
Phoenix is truly savage when it comes to aromatics—rising from the ash you’ll catch whiffs of everything from grapes and diesel to alcohol. The flavor contrasts nicely, however: sweet, crisp melon and spicy earth. While Phoenix is not a heavy-handed strain where THC is concerned, it is still just as enjoyable for a good relaxed state of mind that leaves you feeling nothing but happy.
3. Trainwreck
- Type: Sativa
- THC: ~18%
- Effects: Body mellowing with inventive imagination
If you prefer to stick with Sativas, Trainwreck is not a strain to miss, especially with its lemon-fresh aromatics and flavors. This beauty is, just as the name implies, hard to pull away from after the first experience. Trainwreck came to life by crossing two Sativa strains, Thai and Mexican, with Afghani, so what you get is a heavier cognitive high that is quick to curb any type of bodily discomfort. And, a lot of people claim Trainwreck to be their go-to for getting into a creative place.
4. Sour Glue
- Type: Hybrid
- THC: ~20%
- Effects: Happy but sedated
When you cross Gorilla Glue #4 and Sour Diesel, what do you get? Sour Glue, of course. This Sweet Dirt cannabis strain is a local favorite for obvious reasons. For one, the flavor/aromatic profile is off the charts with sour herbs and diesel combined with something akin to your favorite chocolate/mocha drink. As a heavy THC strain, the effects kick in almost immediately for both the body and mind. Sour Glue is known for gluing you right to your place and making sure you’re totally euphoric about being in that state.
5. Lazy Dog
- Type: Indica
- THC: ~21%
- Effects: Uplifting euphoria with energy
With a name like Lazy Dog, you may expect this strain to put you on the couch, but that’s just not the case. Lazy Dog is known to put an extra ounce of spring in your step while giving you a totally uplifting mindset. A cross between Chemdog 91, Northern Lights, and pacific Northwest Hash, lazy Dog is also not short on flavor or aromatics. You catch everything from lemon and pine to garlic and pepper.
6. Purple Struck
- Type: High-CBD
- THC: ~8% and 10% CBD
- Effects: Relaxing and therapeutic
If you’re all about cannabis for therapeutic effects without the intense head high, Purple Struck is truly a striking pick. This gorgeous strain is super sticky and sweet with a tangy level of aromatics that you can’t miss. With the nearly one-to-on balance of both THC and CBD, Purple Struck serves up a good body high that keeps you mostly clear-headed and ready to tackle the day.
7. Royal Kush
- Type: Indica
- THC: ~19%
- Effects: Hazily cerebral with deep introspection and a sense of calm
Brought to life by combing Afghan with Skunk #1, Royal Kush is a true queen in the Sweet Dirt cannabis lineup. The flavor is true-to-weed with classic collaborations of herb and earthy skunk that paints the tongue in just enough sweetness. Royal Kush starts in the head with an intense euphoric rush that leaves you giddy and at ease, but that hypnotically ebbs and flows as the high takes over the body for utter relaxation.
