This famous sativa-dominant hybrid, which has an 80:20 sativa/indica ratio, combines a powerful head high with a soothing body high that last for at least two hours. Acapulco Gold originated in Acapulco, Mexico, but no one seems to remember who first grew it or what parent strains were used. Acapulco Gold is pretty hard to find because it’s difficult to grow indoors, but it’s popular throughout the United States, especially in warmer climes. It’s best used to treat anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, but it’s also good for insomnia and headaches, as well as some mental disorders. This strain can be especially powerful, with THC levels as high as 24%. It has a distinct earthy flavor and aroma, with a taste of chestnut and tealeaves. As with most strains, the most likely adverse effects are dry eyes and dry mouth. Paranoia and dizziness are also possible but less common. Acapulco Gold is most popular in the Western United States, the Upper Midwest, and the desert Southwest. It often costs more than other strains because of its potency and the beautiful gold-tinged appearance of its bud.

Ok smoke, but much harsher and stronger than the Acapulco Gold I remember. The one I was thinking of was reminiscent of Lavender Jones.

“No stems no seeds that you don’t need, Acapulco Gold is badass weed!!” Some of you may be old enough to get that, it’s from a Cheech and Chong record from the 70’s. This was a favourite of mine back then. Hard to say if it’s exactly the same thing, but it certainly feels the same. A classic, recommended.
