Frosty Jesus

Frosty Jesus is a hybrid with a smooth balance between indica and sativa influences. Created by Oregon-based breeders Rebel Spirit Cannabis, this strain is a cross between Jesus OG and the staple OG Kush. In addition to being psychoactively potent, Frosty Jesus offers a rich, memorable flavor. Its THC content has been measured at between 18% and 24%.

Flowers of Frosty Jesus are distinguished by their solid, spadelike formation, tapering down from a wide base at the stem into a pointed tip. The average-sized buds have the loose, open internal structure more commonly seen in sativas. Their wispy, feather-like leaves are a vivid shade of spring green and are made even more colorful by curly yellow and orange pistils. Finally, true to the strain’s name, these flowers are covered in a frosty layer of trichomes that account for their potent.

When properly cured, Frosty Jesus gives off an astringent, almost chemical aroma. A closer whiff may detect some hashy notes as well, likely due to the strain’s Kush backbone. When it is ground up or pulled apart, meanwhile, the strain can have more of an herbal aroma with some hints of pine. Burning these flowers in a pipe yields a thick but surprisingly smooth and easy-to-inhale smoke. On the exhale, this smoke carries an earthy and slightly skunky flavor.

As with many other sativa-dominant strains, it doesn’t take long before Frosty Jesus’ high becomes apparent. Shortly after toking, consumers may experience a lightheadedness, accompanied by some facial tics like flushing in the cheeks or a stimulation of the salivary glands. Once these strange sensations dissolve, smokers may find themselves in a more cerebral mindset — thoughts may move more quickly than usual, jumping from one topic to the next in a sort of free association. This form of cerebral engagement can help properly motivated smokers to achieve productivity on anything from freewheeling personal projects to detailed analytical tasks. For those who don’t need to exert concentration, though, Frosty Jesus can simply provide some steady background amusement as they go about mundane tasks like laundry or grocery shopping.

After a little over an hour, Frosty Jesus begins to exert progressively stronger physical effects. Consumers who are lucky enough to be lounging at home tend to feel relief from any longstanding aches and pains; those who are out and about, on the other hand, might start to feel weighed down and sluggish. For consumers who still have the requisite energy, Frosty Jesus’ dual action on the body and mind can enhance activities that involve complex coordination, including sex, exercise, or even just playing video games. Because of this two-stage high, Frosty Jesus is recommended for consumption beginning in late afternoon or early evening.

Frosty Jesus’ dynamic recreational high can also have some benefits for medical cannabis patients. The sharp mental state that comes with its onset can help those with attention deficit disorders. Additionally, its steady euphoric buzz can temporarily alleviate the symptoms of stress or depression. On the physical side of things, Frosty Jesus may soothe aches and pains, whether they’re minor or temporary or due to chronic conditions like lupus or arthritis. Anti-inflammatory properties, meanwhile, may dull everyday discomforts like nausea. Because its early sensation of “mindrace” can be disorienting in the wrong set and setting, though, Frosty Jesus should be consumed with caution and in moderation by patients who are prone to paranoia and panic.

Rebel Spirit has not made seeds of Frosty Jesus available for sale online. Those looking to grow this hybrid at home must somehow obtain clippings from its mature, healthy plants — these can be propagated as “clones.” Frosty Jesus can be grown in controlled indoors conditions or in hot, Mediterranean-like outdoor climates. Indoor gardeners may need to keep the height of these this sativa-inflected plants in check with regular pruning. Frosty Jesus reaches flowering maturity within about 9 to 10 weeks.

An enjoyable, well-rounded hybrid, Frosty Jesus can add some flair to everything from a hang session with friends to a nature hike. It’s worth seeking out by both indica and sativa fans.
