Funky Monkey

You very likely have a Beastie Boys song stuck in your head right now, and if you didn’t before, we apologize. However, the catchiness of Funky Monkey can’t go unnoticed as this indica-dominant bud will put you in a great state of mind every time. Unknown breeders have crossed Grape Ape with Mendo Purps to develop a bud that has earned itself quite a reputation.

Newer users will love Funky Monkey as she only averages around 10% THC, and experienced users will enjoy being able to smoke a ton of this bud. We’ll be the first to admit – this strain isn’t pretty, as nugs look like weird brown rocks with only a few hairs poking through. However, there is a nice amount of trichome coverage here, and her bold flavors aren’t anything to shake a stick at. Berries are dominant with undertones of herbs, spice, earth, and mint, creating a well-rounded experience.

Funky Monkey will make you feel just that and is the perfect strain for going out with friends. Users will notice an instant increase in energy and a mood like none other, allowing them to be far more social than normal. Giggles are natural here, and it might be a good idea to be with close friends so that you don’t annoy any strangers. Enjoy this feeling while it lasts, because while you’ll still be euphoric, your high will progress into a relaxed state that welcomes extreme laziness.

The up and down nature of Funky Monkey works quite well for those who are seeking medicinal relief, although as she isn’t very potent, users should temper their expectations. Individuals who need just a little bit of a lift when it comes to depression or stress will find a few puffs can do the trick, and those with a nagging headache might also turn to this bud for help. As Funky Monkey can bring on quite a case of the munchies, those with a chronic lack of appetite will find her to be a godsend.

In most instances, mystery breeders equate to the general public not knowing how to cultivate strains at home, but Funky Monkey practically comes with her own set of directions. This variety thrives in most environments but tends to prefer dry and warm areas. She’s highly resistant to mold, pests, and mildew, and after 8 to 9 weeks of growth will produce a pretty large yield.

She can be a little bit hard to find at your local dispensary, but with some luck and persistence, Funky Monkey could become a new part of your daily routine. Experiment with dosage and timing to get the most out of this gentle yet fun and tasty bud.
