Cortney’s Corner: Dream Potion #9 & Daywrecker OG
October is here. The days have gotten shorter, the air is getting more cool and crisp and our flower menu has an abundance of new strains. I’m excited to share my reviews of two of those strains with you. Be sure to view the full flower menu when making your selections as we have many high quality offerings.
My top pick on the menu is without a doubt, Dream Potion #9. A cross of Durban Poison and Blue Dream, the unique euphoria of Durban Poison is at the forefront of effects provided. A big smile coupled with the mental and physical relaxation of Blue Dream genetics make this my top recommendation for energy, euphoria and a wonderful sativa option for anxiety and depression. As some one that can be sensitive to sativa strains, I feel that the balance provided between mind and body make it a great selection for times when a subtle, happy lift is desired. If you enjoy a balanced sativa, I encourage you to give Dream Potion #9 a try.
Daywrecker OG is currently my favorite indica available. Strains like this one are uniquely useful and versatile. Daywrecker OG can be used as an end of day remedy to release all stresses and focus on being in the moment. The cerebral effects of a low dose are alert, euphoric and relaxed making it easy to socialize and focus. Aches and pains of the day quickly fade away, replaced by a tingly relaxation making it an ideal option if you want to skip that evening glass of wine. With a heavier dose one can expect a powerful relaxation and deep level of rest. Daywrecker OG is a multi-faceted strain for relieving anxiety, insomnia and chronic pain.
Berry White and Tangie OG
We have some fantastic strains on the menu and I’m thrilled to highlight some of them for you over the coming weeks.
In my time working at RX-C I’ve developed an appreciation for the unique effects Indicas provide vs. Sativas. Up until then my choices would tend to fall short of my expectations because I hadn’t learned what to look for. Over the last 2 years I’ve lent special attention toward strain varieties, terpene profiles and cannabinoid ratios, their effects and how each individual’s experiences may vary.
At this time, we have an abundance of strains whose quality deserves to be recognized on the menu. I’m excited to talk to you this week about our Berry White and Tangie OG.
Cannabis connoisseurs will recognize the Berry White strain immediately. Known for it’s pain relieving effects, Berry is a positive, happily sedating indica. For those looking for a night of true relaxation and deep sleep, Berry White is your guy.
Tangie OG has been a favorite strain of mine for years for its aroma and lift. Needless to say, when it came on the menu I was ready to sample it. Upon my first exhale I felt my sinuses relax and was able to breath more clearly immediately. The other relief I received came in the form of crisp focus and mental uplift at the end of a long day. Tangie OG is a great strain for daytime relief without feeling slow or foggy.
It is a joy for us to have a such a variety of options available to members. Take a look at our menu to compare what is available for your particular needs and we can discuss the best fits for you on your next order. We can’t wait to hear what you think of Berry White and Tangie OG on your next phone call.
Hybrids: An (Often) Overlooked Gem
So often our members tell us they prefer just an Indica or Sativa dominant strain and we certainly respect that, but sometimes a balanced hybrid can be the perfect solution for what you wish to remedy with cannabis.
Today, there are very few pure sativa or indica strains grown. When they become available from our growers, we always jump on the opportunity to add them to our menu. But the truth is that most strains grown today are in fact a hybrid of some sort. It’s all a matter of which way the strain swings, either mostly sativa or mostly indica in overall effects.
When we add a strain to our menu, we classify the variety as follows:
Indica >60% indica dominant in overall effects
Sativa >60% sativa dominant in overall effects
Hybrid 50% sativa effects / 50% indica effects
Once in awhile, we do receive products which are very balanced hybrids. This means that the ratio of effects from indica to sativa are 50/50, delivering an equal amount of head to body effect, euphoria and release. Because we are each unique in how our cannabis receptors activate, a true hybrid may make some people feel uplifted and energized, while the next person may find may find the same strain to be more indica in its characteristics. What we are doing and our mood will also play in a role in how a strain affects us.
Jah Goo, currently available on our menu, is a very balanced hybrid with very nice indica influences, meaning it delivers great relaxation and de-stressing. With old school genetics including Afghani, Maui, Haze and Skunk #1, the effects from Jah Goo are uplifting, razor-sharp euphoric focus and a long lasting, relaxing body buzz making this an ideal go-to strain for:
- End of day relaxation and buzz, without full sedation
- Daytime relief from pain and stress, when taken in small doses
- A nice choice for sex, allowing for full reception without active cerebral stimulation
Give a hybrid a try with your next order.. You may be pleasantly surprised at what it may do for you.

Cortney’s Corner: Soul Assassin
This is my new favorite Indica on the shelf. There are a few particular things that make me fall in love with a strain. I like a certain flavor, aroma, density and onset of effects. The Soul Assassin was given to me to take home and sample. I was warned that it is a heavy bodied strain providing profound body relaxation so I chose to wait until the end of the evening to give it a try. Upon my first inhalation I felt more comfortable in my own skin, the effects started in my chest and moved down into my body. I felt relaxed, happy and content enough to dive into my current book (The Way of the Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman) for a relaxing escape from reality. When I was ready for bed I ingested some more and immediately found my eyelids were heavy and ready for a long night’s sleep. If you’re looking for pain relief, deep relaxation or “couch lock” I highly recommend trying the Soul Assassin on your next order.
