Flower Mega-Thread: Asking for Strain Recommendations

Thank you G. How are you? Its bit grim grey here but I'm on caramel cafe latte for a £1 which is actually helping.
Two pubs so far today :( I'm good mate but a bit busy with 'family commitments' but nearly done now and cheers 💚
 
Next Prescription paid, I've only gone for 2 strains this month. Therismos OG Kush, couple of them and had to get a few of the 4C Labs Platinum Garlic at £5g. I will have some flower left over from last month, I'm going to vacuum seal it for a rainy day or month 🙂.
I've seen that Grow are releasing flower from £4g, Is this because they have gone solo as a business and are these prices just promotional pricing which is good to see or something they will be going forward with in the future?

Always remember peeps if you do have any flower that's left over and you want to save it, keep it in the original packaging with the prescription labelling. You dont want it confiscated from you if taking it out and about with you a couple of months down the line 👍
 
Has anyone got any recs for menthol strains?

Pave will be a regular but it seems like Alaskan Thunder, Slurricane Mint (my 🐐), Kush Mintz, etc. are all disappearing :(
The element of Pave that makes it minty is The Menthol ,it's dad lol and it's in a few other strains and always worth looking out for 💯
So all I have done here is typed a known minty influence into the search on the main part of the site .

Has the search function always been that good?

All those KK Mints and basically none of them are Montu or IPS 😭.

That Cool Grapes sounds interesting 🤔. Hopefully it drops soon!

I'll let you into a secret ,that's the first time I've used it for genetics 🤣 and frankly it should work like that for all the parents and indeed does 🙌

The Cool Grapes I had last year and was a lovely quality strain and hopefully returns with the Green Karat Runtz OG which I had at the same time .
Coincidentally have you seen the new Green Karat sub brand all £7/g non irradiated👀
 
I would wait for some reviews on that cap junky as I have not heard any good reviews on there slurricane mint
Slurricane Mint is my all time favourite strain on medical. Like you say it got a lot of bad reviews but I had A great time with it lol

It didn't stop the fuckers buying it all up either :(.

I like the look of the Kasa Verde stuff. Any idea on who's going to be stocking it? Hopefully everyone!

Expect general ' Cantourage' availability, anyone whom stocks the rest of their strains so far is likely to carry from mid next week – this generally means all the big names.
 
Hi, all.

Looking for non-irradiated flower strains available via Alternaleaf, please. It's really important that they don't increase anxiety and are relatively affordable - probs looking at £7.50/g absolute max. I'm treating AuDHD + anxiety, as well as some inflammatory conditions. I've had a scout of the listings and compared with Leafly, but when I go look at UK MC user reviews, the general quality of the available bud seems surprisingly variable and even a bit poor. Hoping to get some recommendations from your personal experience :)

1) something for daytime use to improve focus and concentration - uplifting and energising (but no anxiety - I know, I know - the holy grail!). I've got Cookies Blanco earmarked, but it's not available yet. Not averse to the *right* Sativa or s-heavy Hybrid.
2) something in the evening to relax and soothe. I don't have trouble sleeping, but it would be nice for my mind to be quiet enough to watch a movie, pref without *excessive* drooling. I had BC Green Scotti Cake in mind, but saw the bad reviews for BC Green Unicorn Cake and now feel like they might not be a good producer...

I'm keeping Big Narstie Purple Milk in mind as a good all-rounder, but have seen a very mediocre review for this one, too. Also have Four20 Black Cherry Punch earmarked as an expensive mind-melter for bad days.

Am also planning to try Aurora® Sourdough resin carts, but understand carts might not be permitted on first script (I have initial consultation on Friday, don't anticipate any issues with approval, all paperwork ready to go).

Hit me with your wealth of experience and recommendations, please. Big thanks :)
 
Welcome, I'm AuDHD, and have other conditions managed by MC too

I'm checking my personal rating list and will come back with any which aren't discontinued and are at your price point...

First tip for now is get Indica strains with Linalool terpene in, actively combats the chest tightening and tombola of broken glass stomach feeling
 
It's a struggle to hit the parameters you shared to be honest.

I have quite a few which hit the price point but they have been discontinued, or are non-irradiated but too expensive, or fit everything else and are beta-irradiated, etc, etc

So I'm going to share a few of what works for me / hasn't been discontinued / isn't from one of the shittier companies which I don't want to recommend to anyone anymore, and let you work out if you are able to stretch on something to get it :)

Daytime I would suggest the following in ranked order:
1. 4C Labs, Lucy In the Sky - this is my #1 strain of all time for making me feel 'better' and still able to deal with things during the day
2. 4C Labs, Moby Dick - similar to Lucy but just missing Lucy's extra sparkle on the effects
3. Aurora®, Electric Honeydew vape cartridge or flower - super mood booster, good for daytime and afternoon


For evening, if you want that anxiety supression I would seek ouy Linalool in the terpene profiles like I said, and usually anything with a 'Cake', 'Wedding' mention in the genetics is in the right place, some good examples of ones which relax and soothe anxiety:

- Peace Naturals®, Wedding Cake
- Aurora®, Sourdough vape cart or flower
- Phant, Pink D1 minis


Galactic cake would have been my #1 in this last list of 'relaxing but not forcing me to sleep' but they just discontinued it - if you find some remaining stock it's worth experiencing I think!

Hope it helps
