Please describe how the strain looked:
It is very dry and leafy.  The budds have been well manicured but don’t seem too terribly dense to begin with.

There are some orange hairs and mild frosting over the leafy structure.

When I break it open the light frosting continues on the inside.  Nothing else stands out.

Please describe the smell:
This strain has a floral hay smell to it.  It smells like it might have been a little wet when it was first packaged and then let back out to dry, but over dried.  Sometimes this is unavoidable when curing in jars.  It is not extremely pleasant.

Please describe the taste:
It tasted chocky and bland.  There were not any real distinct aspects to the smoke.  I found it not to be really good or bad.  The smoke was relatively dry and smooth.  I don’t think I coughed once.

Please describe the high or buzz:
I did not feel very high from this strain.  It made me kind of tired and quiet.  If you are into more downer effects from marijuana then you will like this plant.  I personally like more upbeat and hyper strains.

How did the strain work for your particular symptoms?
It calmed me down a little.  It worked, but I ended up supplementing with some XJ-13 from Granny Purps after two hours.  I felt kind of tired from it as well but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing, just not a medical benefit.  This strain may have worked better out of a joint or pipe but I used a vaporizer.

This rating is due to its dry, brittle appearance (and feel).  Otherwise, it’s pretty average looking.

This one was very mild, earthy/musty mixed with a little sweet, (none of the piney, sharp or sour scents that I personally don’t prefer) and yet it was almost too mild — thus I rated it only slightly above average.

I’d say the flavor, like the smell, was okay — but not what I’d call a full flavor, and no pleasant aftertaste.

I’m not seeking a “head high”, and this strain gave me only a slight dizziness, nothing more.

Harsher on the exhale, but with a minty sweet flavor. It tasted like rosemary almost, with a very minty first flavor. Smooth even flavor, not too intense but very tasty.
