Pre '98 Bubba Kush and Self-Acceptance

Hello! Starting off, we have Pre '98 Bubba Kush. 

*A lot of my information about general reported qualities comes from this website*

    I tried this strain before and it's a classic. Pre '98 Bubba Kush is an Indica, meaning it's more of a body high. It was comprised of 0.27% THC, 10.95% THCA, 0.28% CBD, and 13.94% CBDA. For those who are kind of new to the marijuana world, THC has the high properties to it, and CBD has the physical relaxation/pain relieving properties. 

The reported qualities that this strain has are as follows, according to Leafly: consistent heavy body sensation, pain relief, pungent, musky scent, and coffee-like taste.

Feelings: Relaxed, Happy, Sleeping, Euphoric, and Hungry

Helps with: Pain, Stress, Insomnia, Anxiety, and Depression

Negatives: Dry Mouth, Dry eyes, Dizzy, Headaches, Paranoia

    We smoked it out of a 4 percolator bong with a MouthPeace filter, while hotboxing SO's office. He wanted to show me the YouTube playlist, Proximity-End of Year Mix 2020 (Best of EDM). After the high settled in, I felt the reported consistent heavy body sensation, meaning my muscles relax and stay relaxed. I noticed the pungent smell of each nug (the flower intact). Both SO and I experienced the reported relaxed and hungry qualities. We ordered a large pizza and a large salad for the two of us because we were starving! 

    He shared that he was feeling relief, it was 3 days before his second semester started of this school year, so he had stress to relieve. He also felt a sense of emotional healing. He loves this strain.


"It's the most weed weed. That's the statement. It's balanced, it's a good Indica." - SO


    When my high settled in everything was funnier, we just finished South Park after watching it from the beginning, which I highly recommend to most people, especially while baked off your ass. That dry mouth is for real though; if you're going to get baked with Pre '98 Bubba Kush, you're going to need to stay hydrated.

    But I also experienced an emotional healing of some kind; a psychological growth that I've been grappling with for a while. I feel acceptance and that everything was less serious. 


"Like you're at peace with your past selves and accept responsibility for being the oldest one to take care of them and step in when needed, not to know more per se and be the best one, just the one who has been around the block before and can protect them from bigger things. It's relaxing and has a mellow feeling. A true ride or die, loyal favorite. Solid choice."

    I'm an only child, so when I mention sibling-like topics, it's probably a different perspective on it, compared to people who have actual siblings. But that being said, I had a lot of time to reflect as a child about my actions, not to mention that I have recently discovered that I was a well-behaved child because I was scared of making mistakes and breaking the rules. My parents weren't strict, just very anxious people who emphasized thinking through your decisions multiple times before. This ultimately resulted in me consistently overthinking my actions throughout the day, even years after the event. I'm aware that this isn't a unique experience and if you tend to overthink and dwell on your past, I feel you. I've been to therapy before and I've worked on forgiving my child self in a way for being a bit direct and brash that instead of berating her and feeling embarrassment, I'd simply try to raise her as I would a child, not someone with hindsight looming over them. 

    I've struggled with accepting my adolescent self. But when smoking this particular strain and allowing myself to open the door to that part of myself made me realize that maybe I don't need to raise her, I need to be there for her, I need to be her friend. It was a pleasant experience, almost like how I imagine siblings becoming friends when they're older must feel, putting aside the irritation and embarrassment of the relationship. Growing pains are also psychological, and this strain helps with making those growing pains duller so you can really learn from the experience, not just survive it. So maybe this strain helping with pain management isn't just for physical pain, but also psychological.

    I don't use marijuana as a coping mechanism whenever I feel a slightly negative feeling, nor do I believe I would need it to grow psychologically/personally, but it might help calm the noise so you can listen to whatever it is you're supposed to learn from. 

    Overall Pre '98 Bubba Kush is a solid choice for a classic taste and a pure high. Stay hydrated and give yourself permission to sink deeper into it.

Obligatory Introductory Post

Hello!  Welcome to I Want What She's Smoking, the cannabis review blog from a stoner's mind. Currently, I'm waiting for a sativa edible to sink in, so this is the perfect time to get into the zone regarding actually starting the blog that I promised myself I would make.     This blog purports to review various cannabis products, specifically flower, from the state of someone who is experiencing the effects of the product, a cannabis review from the mind of a stoner; what thoughts, feelings, and physical experiences that come with each product. Now, I'm just one individual and the way some cannabis products effect my psychological and physical state are somewhat unique and may not adequately portray others' experiences, so I encourage any reader to comment their experiences as to obtain the complete picture of a cannabis product.      I plan to organize my posts based on the following formula: Basic product information Qualities Consumption Context Experienc...

Smoking, Science, and Spirituality

Hello!      Since I've been puffing pot, I've had instances where my high self is overwhelmed with curiosity. When you're high, your thoughts seem very insightful and deep, even though they rarely are insightful and deep. You wonder about things in the world and your brain makes some connections that feel new and intriguing!     One of these instances had an unexpected impact on me. The first instance of this new hobby came in the Summer of 2019. My partner, SO, and I were trying out a trial run at living together. He had a Summer lease in his school-owned apartment and I had my apartment near my university, but worked in the town he was located so I stayed with him. We had been dating an hour away for the majority of our relationship and were, for a lack of a better term, testing our relationship and compatibility. We decided to use the Summer as a trial run for living together. With both of us taking Summer classes and working, our Summer was pretty busy, but ...
