Blue Dream, the hybrid strain known worldwide for its calming yet non-sedative effects, is one of the best medical marijuana strains offered for stress relief.  With a reputation as a “Legendary West Coast Strain,” Blue Dream originated from two opposites:  Sativa and Indica.  This genetic cross creates what is known as a “hybrid strain,” or a strain with genetics from two different strains.  Blue Dream, a Sativa dominant hybrid, comes from a cross between Blueberry (Indica) and Haze (Sativa).

Blue Dream is an ideal medical strain for many medical cannabis patients dealing with stress, depression or anxiety. As a “calming” strain, after the onset, patients will experience a serene yet not sleep-inducing sedation, feelings of euphoria, and pain relief.  The high is clean and allows patients to be sharp, yet effectively medicated.

Included below are three reviews of Blue Dream which medical marijuana patients posted on Leafly, a cannabis information resource. Click here to visit Leafly’s Blue Dream page.

“The “Bayer” aspirin of bud that should be in every medicine cabinet. Smoking is slightly blueberry and harsher then expected. Vaporized it’s smooth and has a perk up and get er done benefit. Nice well rounded, daytime medication that is not sedating.” –Free_Byrd

“I consider this strain perfect for my psychological problems. Almost every other weed with this high sativa content seems to cause extreme paranoia but nothing at all like. I felt completely free and loving and more compassionate about myself than I ever have. I have always had an extremely low self-esteem and even though I knew that during the experience my depression was lifted enough for me to easily cope with it. I have complex PTSD from 25 years of emotional abuse from my mother and neglect from my father. And I felt more relaxed and compassionate about myself any every other person and I knew I had that in there. Recommended for anyone that has extreme emotions disturbances about things that happened during your life. Not recommended for medical conditions such schizophrenia obsessive compulsive disorder bi-polar disorder or anything along those lines. Not depression though, it eased my depression which had reached a level were I was on suicide watch for 3 years. This strain made me happier and have a more controlled perspective on life while enjoying myself than any other strain ever. Definitely by far my favorite.” -wiseoldman

“Suffer from chronic pain, stress, anxiety, etc? Try this strain for a daytime medicine. Suddenly after smoking this beautiful flower, I no longer cared about all those idiots on the news, people fighting over everything, most of all I felt a very smooth ease of ALL stress and anxiety, and suddenly the chronic pain I have to deal with because of the incompetence of a surgeon, was managed successfully!!! Best medicine out there!” -CH33SE

March PSC Gram of the Month: Silver Kush

A few months ago, we introduced this strain to our products at Capital City Care and patient feedback was phenomenal! We are excited to announce this strain as the March PSC Gram of the Month for the first time.

Silver Kush is a sativa-dominant mix of Silver Bubble and OG #18 genetics bred by DNA Genetics under their Reserva Privada label. The uplifting effects of Silver Bubble blend with the potent relaxing force of OG #18 to create a strong sativa-driven hybrid that won’t overstimulate medical marijuana patients. Instead, patients will find they feel happy and uplifted as stress dissipates.

The strain has an aroma of spicy herbs with a sharp minty smell when the flower is broken apart.

Medicinally, Silver Kush is known to a one of the perfect strains for fatigue, chronic pain, inflammation migraines and headaches.

Included below are what some reviewers had to say about Silver Kush on Leafly.com, a marijuana strain network for medical marijuana patients.

“Absolute favorite sativa strain! Great for daytime use, creativity, super clean and “clear”. And by clean & clear, I mean it gives you energy, and whatnot, but no “anxiety” type feeling, not jittery, helps focus, and although it is an “upper” type strain, you can still sleep fine while on this, (without it keeping you up). Quite easy on the lungs as well. Definitely my favorite choice …” – kel2pf

“I love the uplifting effects of the strain! Keeps me going with my long honeydo list, and I still have enough energy fot horseplay with the kids. Silver Kush is one of my favorite daytime medications!” – Rhyno1403
