This powerful sativa strain, with an 80:20 sativa/indica ratio, is named after a train engineer. On a foggy night in Mississippi back in 1900, Casey Jones heroically averted a disaster by stopping his passenger train just in time, though he lost his life in the process. Jones has long been celebrated as a folk hero, with songs written about him and even a character inspired by him in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. Fittingly, the Casey Jones strain packs a punch. With THC levels reaching 24%, it delivers a strong, energetic head high that sparks creativity—and maybe even a touch of boldness. The flavour is a sweet and citrusy mix with earthy hints. Casey Jones is ideal for alleviating anxiety and depression, as it provides a significant mood lift. It’s also effective in managing pain and boosting energy levels. Like many strains, the most common side effects are dry mouth and red eyes. Casey Jones, a hybrid of Oriental Express and East Coast Sour Diesel, is especially popular in Amsterdam, Michigan, and along the West Coast.

Sour Haze is a 100% sativa strain though its exact genetic background remains a mystery due to the breeder keeping it under wraps. Among cannabis enthusiasts, there’s a consensus that this strain is likely a hybrid of Sour Diesel and an unidentified Haze variety. Sour Haze is known for its moderately high THC content, typically falling between 19% to 28%, and it delivers a potent sativa experience. Its flavour profile combines sweet lime notes with a sour diesel undertone upon exhale, while its scent is reminiscent of sipping Sprite at a gas station. The buds of Sour Haze are fluffy and neon green, resembling popcorn, with vibrant orange hairs and subtle minty green patches. They’re coated in a thick layer of crystal trichomes and resin. Users report that Sour Haze provides an immediate uplift and energizing head high, leaving them feeling active, motivated, and often giggly. However, overindulging can lead to feelings of paranoia, dizziness, and heightened anxiety. Given its strong effects, Sour Haze is recommended for experienced patients dealing with conditions like mild to moderate depression, chronic stress, and sleep disorders such as insomnia.
