Imagine a cool kiss of air that sends tingles down your spine and imparts a chilled out sense of being across your entire body. Sorry to burst your bubble, but Frosty is anything but your minty piece of gum. Created from unknown parents by unknown breeders, it’s a strain that’s not at all like its name entails.

Don’t be disappointed though, because this strain brings at least a 20% THC level to the party on any given day, as well as a 2% CBD content to boot. While nugs of this strain do have a coating of trichomes that appear like ice, these otherwise large and dense buds are fairly normal looking. Sweet and dank are the two ways to best describe both their smell and taste, and with a sticky coating of resin, they can give users a bit of a hard time when trying to break the nugs apart.

Frosty may not be well named, but the high you’ll experience is worth it nonetheless. A rush of cerebral energy will hit you like a ton of bricks, allowing you to feel relaxed yet simultaneously creative and inspired at the same time. Enjoy this uplifting mood booster in a variety of ways, whether it’s a day at the lake with friends or a small get together at home, but don’t expect to be overly productive. While Frosty will put a smile on your face, this indica-dominant strain will also allow you to feel deeply mellow while washing away all stressors.

Medicinal users often turn to Frosty for its combination of THC and CBD, allowing them to both enjoy a psychoactive experience while finding relief from plaguing medical conditions. A major appetite stimulant, those who struggle with eating will find that Frosty allows them to nourish their body with ease, so make sure to stock up your fridge and pantry before diving in. Overall, Frosty’s main benefits come with its ability to push anxiety and depression by the wayside. If you smoke quite a bit, you might end up falling asleep during the comedown, which is a welcome gift for those with insomnia.

Much like its heritage, information on growing Frosty at home is a well-guarded secret. Given that its origin is held tightly under wraps, it might be best left for an experienced grower to take a shot at it. As it’s a hybrid strain, perhaps it will be a plant that’s fairly easy to cultivate, but we may never know!

It’s hard to not imagine snow covered mountains or tastes of wintergreen when you hear the name Frosty, but after one hit you’ll see how far from reality those thoughts actually are. Instead, enjoy this nicely balanced strain on a day off and take a vacation from the world, even if it’s only for a few hours.
