Slurricane

Slurricane is an indica leaning hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) that is a cross between the now popular Dos-Si-Dos strain and the aesthetic strain Purple Punch. It has moderately high THC which is usually in the range of 20%- 28%. For those who appreciate experimenting with different flavorful cannabis strains it would be a crime to miss out on this one.

Slurricane has a super sweet fruity berry flavor with spicy tropical fruits that can be appreciated upon exhale. As much as the aroma has some pungent notes the smoke produced is still very gentle and tolerable.

Slurricane is not a very strong indica and will cause a mild body stone. If you were tired in the first place you are likely to experience a couch lock where you will be unable to get off the couch for at least two hours. But generally you can use this strain during the day without any serious issues.

The mental high caused by a Slurricane settles in a few minutes after your first puff and creeps all the way up to the back of your head where it causes tingly effects. This quickly evolves to a soaring euphoria causing expansive happiness that pushes out any depressive feelings. As this happens, your limbs will slowly begin feeling heavy and you will be compelled to take to a lying down position. If you can afford to do not hesitate as this helps to relieve chronic aches, muscle spasms and fatigue.

Slurricane has been used by patients to treat migraines or chronic pain, muscle spasms, poor appetite, and glaucoma among others.

Slurricane buds are fluffy and grape-shaped with dark olive green color with rich purple undertones. Thin amber pistils intertwine with the nugs while a coating of purple-tinted tiny white crystal trichomes can be seen covering the nugs. This is a perfect strain for daytime use.

Terpene Profile

Slurricane has two dominant terpenes; limonene and beta caryophyllene.

Limonene is common in most sativa strains. It is also abundant in the rind of citrus fruits. It produces a distinct citrus aroma that is hard to ignore. This is helpful in creating an elevated move and helps to relieve stress and anxiety.

Beta caryophyllene has a unique, sweet, and spicy aroma. It is the only terpene that interacts directly with the endocannabinoid system. In this way, it facilitates the role of other terpenes. It offers analgesic and anti-inflammatory benefits as well.
