Sugar Plum is a heavily sativa dominant hybrid (90% sativa/10% indica) strain created as a cross of the infamous Berkeley Blues X Hawaiian Haze Plum strains. This tasty bud placed 1st at the 2003 Oregon Medical Cannabis Cup for Best Sativa and boasts an insanely high THC level of up to 25%.
Although it’s powerful effects are well-loved by experienced users, it’s the taste that gets you hooked – it has a sweet sugary tropical fruit flavor that only intensifies as you continue to smoke, making you want more and more and often leaving to some users taking too much at once and experiencing powerful paranoia and anxiety. The smell is very similar, with a fruity tropical bouquet that has a sickly sweet aroma as the bud is smoked.
The Sugar Plum effects are hard-hitting and long-lasting, with a smooth happy onset that hits you in the head like a freight train with insanely uplifting cerebral effects and waves of joyful energy. You’ll feel the need to get up and do something with this bud, which usually leads to endless snacking when the munchies kick in.
Because of these effects and its high THC level, Sugar Plum is the perfect bud for treating chronic pain, nausea, appetite loss, glaucoma, and mood swings. This bud has medium-sized dense and leafy dark forest green pepper-shaped nugs with reddish purple undertones and hairs and a sticky sweet layer of resin with frosty lavender hued crystal trichomes.
