There’s the Cannabus and the Weed Bus, but last weekend Danielle and I found ourselves on the 420 Express. Next stop? Stoned in Skagit Valley!
Due to an influx of photographers at the flower field, Danielle and I took a chance on this old bus. We casually walked down an old dirt road and boarded the soon-to-be weed bus. Eventually we realized no one cares, made a couple trips back to the car for styling and gear, then sparked up. All aboard the 420 Express.
Cookies is the popular girl at Cannabis High. Her color pops. She’s full of flavor. Boys want to take her home. It’s no wonder the Cookies strain is a genetic gift on Legends’ lineup.
Cookies, also known as Girl Scout Cookies or GSC, is an indica-dominant hybrid. This strain pays homage to the California scene. It’s a combination of earthy OG Kush and spicy Durban Poison, for a bold, flavorful smoke.
This weekend’s hike is one of my favorites thus far. It didn’t feel like Washington, but instead a lush, tropical paradise. Large rocks, fallen trees and a mossy waterfall split in two look even better when you’re blazed at Boulder River.
Andrea and I started our hike bright and early. Early arrival meant fewer people and soft light. We loaded our backpacks with swimsuits, hot shorts and sunnies. It’s a relatively easy hike, so no worries about wearing off makeup.
What an evening at the 2015 DOPE Industry Awards! Industry peers voted me the 2015 Photographer of the Year and Western Cultured won Best Producer.
The DOPE Industry Awards took place at the Showbox SODO. i502 producers, processors and retailers wore their red carpet best for this special night. DOPE left lots of swag for attendees and live music enhanced the already impeccable ambiance. Kitty Kitty Bang Bang hosted the show (loved her green dress!) and the Cannabus came to dish out dabs.
Kraken Black Pepper by Western Cultured marks my first time growing the cannabis classic — Girl Scout Cookies. With its rich, peppery aroma, there’s no surprise how this strain got its appropriate name. If you like the Cookies lineage, you’ll want to add this to your lineup.
I know what you’re thinking. Why rename a classic? Well for starters, Kraken Black Pepper is a cross between two classics, Girl Scout Cookies and OG Kush. Additionally, despite the popular genetics, many companies have chosen to rename or cross their GSC strains in order to prevent lawsuits from Girl Scouts of America.
If you could only smoke one strain for the rest of your life, what strain would you choose? For me, I’d pick something energizing, citrus flavored and filled with aroma. Is your mouth watering yet? Mine is for Super Lemon Haze by Western Cultured!
Super Lemon Haze, also dubbed SLH, is a classic sativa. This strain is widely known for its popular genetics, Super Silver Haze crossed with Lemon Skunk. Any good SLH will have a strong lemon aroma when you open the bag.
