In your opinion, what Sativa would you go for if you were looking for a energetic, creative, clear minded buzz..??
I'm thinking Strawberry cough..? but i haven't a clue....
Thanks for any help you can throw this way..
IMO sativas and clear minded don't go very well together. Sativas have more THC and less CBD (which actually modulates, or lessens the effect of thc) unlike indicas which typically have more CBD. Anyways, THC has a high affinity to CB1 receptors which are concentrated mostly in your brain. CB2 receptors are effected more by CBD and are concentrated in smooth muscle (think digestive tract) and organs. This is why heavy indicas work better for muscle spasm, appetite gain, pain ect.
As for the first 2 descriptors, pretty much any sativa should accomplish those. IDK about you but I don't have the time to wait for a 15 weeker tho (like BF Tangerine dream for instance) so I look for hybrids. 50/50 is a good place to start, even 60/40s and maybe 70/30s. You want enough indica to add mass and shorten flowering time. Anyways, pick a hybrid strain, select a more sativa leaning pheno. Best way to do it would be to pop 10 reg seeds (or 5 fems) or so, number them all. Take clones, flower them out and pick your favorite. Wish I could offer a more strait forward answer, but there's so many factors involved it's hard to just say x strain will do this for you. Harvest time make a big diff to, harvesting earlier will give you more of a racier, energetic buzz. Try harvesting a bud off one of your well know strains about a week maybe 2 before you normally would. Dry it, cure it, smoke it. Can you feel a difference from the normally harvested bud? It should be less heavy (less CBN) with maybe slightly less THC% but it will feel very different.
