Brains Damage is a supercharged indica-dominant hybrid that boasts a four-way cross between classic strains and fan favorites to deliver very specific results. The breeders at KC Brains spliced Acapulco Mexican with Hawaiian, Mango, and KC 636 to give users a dumbfounding blast to the head that will leave you pondering all of life‘s bigger questions.

This highly introspective strain has THC levels that top 23% on average and a palate reminiscent of a tropical paradise, but don’t let the flavors fool you into thinking that this bright and fruity bud is in any way easy-going. These dense olive green and purple buds are covered in sticky white trichomes and brightly colored hairs, giving you the distinct impression of tree fruit. The aromas are super refreshing with citrus and pine on the forefront and hints of earth and tree bark on the backend.

As the name might suggest, the Brains Damage high is mind-numbing and often introspective. You’ll feel an initial rush of cerebral euphoria before the dopiness and haze sets in. Although this strain is emotionally uplifting, it tends to leave your body feeling less than motivated, and intense couch lock replaces any bodily coordination you once had. Even though you may feel able to function, your words may not come out so. It’s not uncommon to find yourself looking straight at the person talking to you without hearing a word they say.

First and foremost, this strain is not recommended for anyone who suffers from extreme anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, or has a tendency to lean towards paranoia. It quickly becomes overwhelming and can intensify pre-existing conditions of that nature. With that being said, Brains Damage is beneficial for the treatment of insomnia, nausea, lack of appetite, and some mood disorders such as depression or chronic stress. Additionally, you’ll find it may help with digestive issues and the occasional bouts of low libido.

This is one of the rare strains that is highly recommended for outdoor growth, as Brains Damage loves natural light. You can look forward to a late September harvest with an above average yield if all conditions are right. That doesn’t mean that indoor growth isn’t possible - it is just a bit trickier. Indoor cultivators can expect a flowering time of 8 to 10 weeks with a moderate yield.

If you love a psychedelic bud that will put you to sleep after a long and wild head high, this is your next favorite strain. The sativa forward effects give you bursts of energy and thoughtful waves of introspection. When you couple that with the indica heavy sedation and sleepiness, you’ll find this is a good evening toke.
