The High Plains Drifter strain by Raven Grass is a strain whose characteristics perfectly highlight the organic growth methods used to cultivate it. Made up of a cross between Blue Dream x Chem Dawg X Fire OG, three iconic strains come together to form this Sativa-leaning bud. High Planes Drifter boasts potentially strong, heady effects combined with a sense of brightness. The Folks at Dockside in Seattle recommended the strain to us for its organic characteristics, and the strain doesn’t disappoint with an earthiness that shines through in every part.
Sustainable Growth
Raven Grass is a cultivator that prides itself on sustainable and organic growing practices. The brand follows a “true earth” growing practice that follows USDA Organic standards. The “VT” is labeled onto each Raven Grass jar to let customers know they are getting the real deal. Like many of the brand’s other products, The High Plains Drifter strain produces an organic and potentially welcoming cannabis experience.
Appearance
The first notable feature of the High Plains Drifter strain is its earthy aroma. After cracking open the bright green nugs, the strain produces a slight diesel smell from the Chem Dawg and an OG-like earthiness. The combination creates a smell that immediately tells the user that the strain is as organic as it gets. RMR CEO Mitch Phifer stated that the smell brought him back to the pre-legalization days when people started to put a huge focus on pesticide-free, organic cannabis.
In addition, the packaging tells a lot about the reason for the High Plains Drifter strain’s smell–starting with its dominant terpenes. Myrcene, one of the most abundant terpenes found in cannabis, stands out amongst the others. Myrcene gives off an earthy, musky aroma similar to the smell of cloves. Strains with Myrcene tend to have Indica-dominant effects, which comes as no surprise for the DJ Short Blueberry. Legendary strains like Grape Ape, Granddaddy Purple, OG Kush, and Blue Dream also contain Myrcene. The presence of Myrcene is one reason for the strain’s popularity among medical cannabis users. The terpene contains anti-inflammatory properties, pain relief, and a sedative effect on the system.
High Plains Drifter takes after its parents in more than just aroma. The strain has bright green, rounded nugs that have a light dusting of crystal trichomes. The vibrant green color is accented by bright bursts of orange hairs.
Experience
The flavor of the High Plains Drifter is where we start to see elements of the Blue Dream parent. The taste on the first hit is bright and earthy. Users can detect the gassy Chem Dawg and the earthy Fire OG in the initial inhale. On the exhale, the sweetness of the Blue Dream adds to the brightness and balances out some of the Chem. Put simply, the flavor is clean. From the initial flavor to the aftertaste, users can feel that natural, organic characteristic that defines the High Plains Drifter.
The strain tests at about 19.23% THC, so users may experience a decently potent high. The strain offers potentially euphoric feelings in the mind and body that match the brightness of its flavor. The strain is a perfect choice for activities like socializing, going on a walk, or getting chores around the house done. Additionally, the strain offers a lot in the realm of medicinal marijuana. High Plains Drifter may be helpful in treating health issues like anxiety, depression, or chronic stress.
