“Music is a safe kind of high.” Jimi always had a way of putting things so beautifully that even his regular conversation could be written in a song. He oozed creativity and had a voice so sleek he could soothe even the most jagged mood. This appropriately named strain offers users a glimpse into that creative energy while smoothing any negativity that might be floating around.

This mellow 50/50 blend furnishes moderate THC levels, between 14% and 17%, allowing for an easy high that won’t weigh you down. Though this name titles many genetic combinations, this particular strain is a three-way cross of Sugar Skunk, Madonna, and Purple Haze. The light green buds are covered with lime colored leaves and burnt orange curly hairs. As mystical as its namesake would suggest, this plant offers an array of aromas and flavors that take you on a sensory journey through spice, sour lemon, pine, and dust. Thankfully, the sweetness cuts any skunky or pungency on the burn.

Jimi Hendrix supplies a mild high that rolls through the body slowly, hushing the nerves and easing the mind. Float away on a cloud of earthy pine scents and candy sweet flavors as the second wave hits, leaving you with a burst of creative energy. Because of its manageable side effects, this bud is good for users of any experience level. You’ll also find this is a great wake and bake bud or a nice cool down after a long workday.

For mild aches and pains, this hybrid is a great alternative to over the counter medications. The potency is moderate, allowing for functionality throughout the high, so users needn’t worry about becoming vegetative. Sufferers of depression, anxiety, or other mood disorders also enjoy the relief this soothing high provides. For novice users, try a vaporizer as some have reported this to be a harsh smoke for virgin lungs.

Because of the sweet overtones, this plant is indoor friendly, though if you must be discreet about growing, investing in a smell proof system is your best bet. The skunky aromas that accompany the lemony sweetness can be powerful, causing some growers to prefer an outdoor situation. Flowering time varies from 8 to 9 weeks with an above average yield in the right conditions.

Enjoy this silky smooth high in the company of a good book or, if your gears are spinning, maybe write one of your own. The small surge of energy this bud gives you makes for a nice boost to your mood and productivity, so if you are a daytime smoker, this bud is a great choice. Calming, but not heavy, Jimi Hendrix is a lovely choice for medicinal and recreational users alike.
