If you live outside of the Humboldt, California area, you may never get your hands on this sativa-dominant cross, but for those who live in this beautiful area of the country, Golden Gage is a staple in their stash.
A cross between Joseph OG and Golden Goat by breeders at Green Gage Genetics, it’s an uplifting bud that’s great for all users.
Average THC levels of 18% are here to welcome you with open arms, as Golden Gage tends to be a consistently potent strain. One of the more lovely flowers you’ll ever see, oversized buds have golden undertones, striking pistils, and glittering trichomes that shine like gold. A strong flavor awaits you with notes of spice, hash, citrus, and pepper, so if you’re into sweeter strains this may not be your cup of tea.
Let’s face it - life can get boring. Many people turn to cannabis to liven things up, and if you really want to take hold of your happiness, you’ll choose Golden Gage. After just a few hits you’ll be transported to a mental state that’s happy, energetic, and perhaps even more talkative than is appropriate. Getting tasks done at work becomes a breeze, and as it’s rumored to incite some serious arousal, you might just feel like getting busy after you clock out for the day.
As great as this strain is for battling fatigue and generalized stress and depression, those with anxiety should stay far, far away. Golden Gage is a very heady strain, and if cannabis tends to make you paranoid, this one won’t be your friend. However, when dealing with bodily pain that’s weighing you down, this bud is a winner, allowing headaches, cramps, and muscle issues to dissolve with ease. Some users do experience a bit of a relaxing comedown after their initial high, so if you need to keep your energy up, repeat use might be in order.
Golden Gage is a great choice for experienced home growers as her resinous yields tend to be quite large. If you’re looking for an easy time of it, keep in mind that only regular seeds are available with feminized versions off the market. Both indoor and outdoor cultivation will suit her just fine, and after 8 to 9 weeks, you might have all of your neighbors knocking on your door wanting some for themselves.
Those who are determined to try this famous bud might want to make a trip to California instead of waiting around for it to reach their local area. If you’re that dedicated, stock up as best as you can, although traveling with weed is a big no-no. Instead of consuming your stash in one go, consider taking some seeds home with you and spreading the Golden Gage love wherever you are.
