An accumulation of the trichomes, or resin glands, sifted from cannabis flowers with a mesh screen or sieve. Kief is the most potent part of the cannabis plant in terms of cannabinoids with a high concentration of tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA). It can be pressed into hash, used as an ingredient to infuse food, or to top off joints and blunts.

What is Kief?

Kief is made by separating the trichomes, which contain the marijuana plant’s cannabinoids and terpenes, from the rest of the cannabis flower. Because it is more potent than cannabis flower, less is needed in order to feel the desired effects.

The Amsterdam Dutch Passion company bred Euphoria in the early 2000s, from skunk strains. Once it was developed, this strain bagged a number of awards including second place at the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2000 and the Best Seeds HighLife cup in 2002. Minimal fuss is required for the growth of this plant and can also be harvested as a bumper crop. Despite having skunk parents, Euphoria is more floral and sweeter than skunky. This strain produces upbeat effects. However, it might make some people too hyperactive. Euphoria is an effective strain for social anxiety and it creates a sense of well-being in users. As the name goes, Euphoria produces an upbeat feeling and makes the body more active. It is mostly used when people have a party or a social gathering to attend. Patients using this strain have reported experienced happy thoughts and an uplifting feeling; hence this is a very effective strain for those who suffer from general anxiety disorders, chronic anxiety, debilitating or chronic pain, chronic depression, nausea and severe stress.

Being an indica dominant strain, it is also referred to as the Kobe OG. Since it is a 100% indica phenotype, it creates an astounding 22% THC content that will blow you away, well not literally of course. It can easily be distinguished from any other strain because of its powerful skunky smell, which can be recognized almost immediately. Additionally, its smell is quite pungent with citrus undertones. As for the flavor, it is nothing different from what it smells like but you will detect a hint of fuel along with exotic spices. Not only is it a powerful weed, but it offers a high in the classic Kush tradition. However, True OG is not recommended to individuals who are new to smoking medical marijuana. It is perfect at relaxing your body and mind and is effective at treating several medical conditions. You have to keep in mind that the strain is one of the reasons why the term ‘Couchlock’ came into being. Not only will you feel exhausted but your eye lids will drop if you smoke higher doses. But then again, it is a great strain to treat insomnia, chronic pain, headaches and even nausea.
