Afternoon Delight

“Sky rockets in flight…” You know where this is going. As the name would suggest, this afternoon bud is energetic and uplifting, perfect for that midday pick me up. By crossing the ever flavorful Banana with Schrom and Tangie, Colorado Seed Inc has graced us with a bright and happy high that tastes as good as it feels.

Although the exact sativa to indica ratio is unknown, many have guessed that it would land somewhere around 70/30 with a strong sativa dominance. As the effects are typical of a sativa, it’s not hard to see why that conclusion was drawn. The THC of these neon green nugs is moderate, between 14% and 18%, and give off a skunky, fruity taste. The buds are accented with thin orange hairs and sticky resin. The aromas are much like the taste with skunk, fruit, and diesel as the prominent odors.

As with many sativa-dominant strains, this is an energetic boost that hits your head straight away. It starts off with a tingle in the back of the neck and head that spreads throughout the limbs, giving you an utterly tickled feeling. The relaxing nature of the indica kicks in after just a few moments, smoothing out the edges of the high and leaving you totally at ease. The buzz between head and body are fairly even, leaving the user functioning, though totally mellowed.

Mild enough to keep an even keel though strong enough to treat a myriad of conditions, Afternoon Delight is a beloved strain of the medical community. It is best used for depression and other mood disorders such as anxiety and chronic stress because of its tendency to leave users in a euphoric, but energetic state. This energy makes it great for chronic fatigue and even those who struggle with a lack of appetite.

Growing this plant is not necessarily as delightful as its effects. The seeds are rather difficult to come by and the plant itself is a bit finicky by nature. Afternoon Delight is recommended for intermediate to advanced growers with a system that has proper temperature control. You’ll end up with an average yield in about 8 to 10 weeks.

We’ll spare you the song this time and just say that this is a delightful high that weighs the body down just enough to be relaxed without sedating you to an afternoon nap. With bright flavors and joyful aromas, Afternoon Delight is a strain that will have you singing its praises to anyone who asks.
