The pair of growers at Swamp Boys Seeds have come up with another fantastic hybrid in First 48, a bud that brings awesome flavors and amazing effects to the table. By crossing The White with Orange Blossom Trail, users have the opportunity to have the kind of afternoon they’ve always wanted.

Depending on the cultivation conditions, First 48 can be a mild bud with 15% THC or can reach as high as 29%. Super frosty nugs are very dark in color and emit an aroma of skunk and lemon that quickly fills the room. These notes carry over into the flavor as you smoke, although they are milder than you’d think. Many describe First 48 as a strain that tastes as pretty as it looks.

While this strain does lean heavily toward the sativa side of her genetics, it’s not exactly the burst of power you’d expect. Instead, a focused energy that’s mostly euphoric will enter into your mind, allowing you to accomplish a few tasks before the physical effects take over. Once you enter into the comedown, expect to be completely relaxed and perhaps even a bit sleepy. If you’re highly sensitive you might even go down for a little nap, however, those who are prone to anxiety should stay away from this bud altogether.

First 48 can be a bit of an intense bud at first, but the medicinal properties she brings to the table are in a class of their own. Anyone who is struggling with stress or depression knows firsthand how draining each day can be, but with a little toke of this bud during the afternoon, the rest of your day will be smooth sailing. Relatively high THC content also allows for bodily pain including headaches and cramps to be addressed. Smoke enough of First 48 and insomnia will be a thing of the past.

Those who want to grow their own First 48 at home should be advised that this strain is pungent, so investing in a smell-proof setup may be the best way to go. Aside from the olfactory portions of this endeavor, it’s important to remember that this strain will flower in only about 8 weeks. Yields are said to be substantial, so if you have some growing experience you might consider taking this plant for a spin.

Between the gorgeous flavors and balanced effects, First 48 could end up being one of your favorite strains. We know it will be hard, but you should wait until at least midday to indulge in this zesty bud. Finish up the few tasks on your to-do list and then settle in for a nice night at home.
