A Glistening Ganja GoddessBud BasicsThe ancient Egyptians used gold leaf to gild their sarcophagi for the afterlife, and with a smooth smoke and high amounts of both CBD and THC,Gold Leaf Feminizedis a gift worthy of the gods, too.Though this rare strain is actually named after the mellow golden color of her mature foliage, she is worshipped by both recreational and medicinal users, as her benefits are undeniably amazing.With a fairly high THC level of around 21%-24%, you might be wondering whereGold Leafgets her genius genetics from - but you-€™ll have a hard time finding out. Although it-€™s been established that she-€™s a weed with a 60/40 ratio of Indica to Sativa, that-€™s about as much as we-€™ve been able to discern, as her breeder has been particularly secretive about her origins.Regardless of where she comes from, with just one toke you-€™ll find yourself riding a wave of incomparable euphoria - and with a second you might find yourself drifting off to the land of dreams.She-€™s ideal if you-€™re looking for relief from a variety of physical and mental ailments, and she-€™s no burden when it comes to growing, either.

Spicy yet citrusy, there-€™s a hint of lemon and lime to her taste that will linger on the tongue long after you-€™re done, mild enough to be quite pleasant all round.EffectsDefinitely not a slow burner,Gold Leafwill set you off on a cerebral buzz almost as soon as you take a toke, immediately lifting spirits, brightening your mood and boosting your creativity with an undeniable kick - you-€™ll struggle to resist her allure even on the very worst of days.Gold Leafis a particularly quick-hitter, and the upbeat, positive energy will seep its way into your mind, bringing with it a touch of focus and an abundance of motivation that quickly turns heady.As the high settles in, you-€™ll find a creeping, relaxing sensation will overwhelm you starting at the neck and working its way down your body to ease away any aches and pains or physical tension.Definitely a ganja for a chilled day, don-€™t expect to be particularly motivated to move after a hit ofGold Leaf. Try lazing with something that requires a little less effort like a Netflix binge, and just a few hours later you-€™ll find yourself succumbing to sleep as the heavy body high gets stronger, and your eyelids drift closed-€¦Given her tendency to stone you into sleepiness,Gold Leafis the ganja of evenings and winding down - not the strain you-€™re after if you-€™ve got to work and get stuff done.Medical Uses of Gold Leaf FeminizedOne of the main reasonsGold Leafis such a goddess of a strain is the addition of a fairly high CBD level (around 1% to 3%) to her already high THC. Despite the lack of information available regarding her parentage, it seems clear she was bred with medicinal and recreational consumers in mind, and as such she-€™s popular with many medical marijuana users.If you-€™re looking for a weed to help with physical ailments,Gold Leaf Feminizedcan provide much needed relief with a single toke for such issues as arthritis, migraines, muscle spasms, PMS and eye pressure. A single toke will temporarily relieve pain and inflammation due to her analgesic properties, and she-€™ll get to work quickly, too.Able to induce a mental state that can only be described as bliss, this herb can be effective for those dealing with stress, or fighting depression or anxiety. Those struggling with ADD andADHDhave praised her benefits too, and as with many strains of cannabis, she-€™s also a dab hand at improving appetite - a little goes a long way to inducing the munchies withGold Leaf.Given her relaxing effects, a few hits will help with fatigue and insomnia by bringing on a remarkable state of chill that will last for several hours. A few tokes more, and expect sleep to come on fast, depending on your tolerance.Gold Leaf can have the odd adverse reaction though, and smoking her in large quantities could leave you with cottonmouth, or dry and bloodshot eyes, so we recommend drinking plenty of fluid while you consume her delights.That high THC might be a blessing, but if your tolerance is low you could risk dizziness or headaches if you overdo it with this lady. Some may experience paranoia and anxiety, and as such we recommend switching to a less potent strain, asGold Leafis strong even in small doses.Growing Gold Leaf FeminizedAs one of the highest yielding strains available, you-€
