Sunshine Strain

Sunshine strain can brighten the day. Like its namesake, it brings a ray of hope on an otherwise gloomy day. And, it is not only recreational users who benefit from its optimistic high. Medical users too can delight in the reprieve from mental and physical discomforts.

Developed by Peace Naturals Project, a licensed producer in Canada, its intended use is therapeutic. Unfortunately, the company chose not to disclose its genetics. Nonetheless, it is a Sativa-dominant hybrid that relies on its above-average THC and other compounds in delivering pharmacological benefits. And, because it induces a psychedelic high, recreational users are discovering its use as feel-good marijuana.

But, that is not at all. Typical of Sativa strains, Sunshine strain is an excellent mood-enhancer. Inspiring a happiness from within, it leaves user feeling upbeat.

Gradually, the warm fuzzy sensation drifts down to the rest of the body. An indication that the Indica properties of Sunshine have begun. As it intensifies, it ushers in a soothing high to relax the whole body.

In moderation, Sunshine’s effects are intense but not crippling. However, its potent THC levels of up to 16% should not be discounted. When consumed excessively, its effects can be too overwhelming.

Fragrance

Sunshine is best described as a fragrant aerosol. It is pungent, overall, but a fruity scent is evident. Truly breathing in the strain, a sharp but sweet citrus is detectable.

Flavors

Much like how it smells, Sunshine is very pleasant to the palate. It is fruity but not too sweet. Instead, it is complemented by the tanginess of citrus. Truly bringing out its flavors, however, is the earthy undertone when the smoke is drawn and exhaled.

Adverse Reaction

The most common side effect of toking marijuana is dehydration, often reflected as dryness in the mouth and in the eyes. Some people may experience dizziness to some degree. However, all these are mild. Not only that, they are barely noticeable while in the middle of the high.

One thing people should keep in mind is that Sunshine is dominantly Sativa. This means it can impact the mind’s ability to perceive. It can possibly elevate anxiety in some. For this reason, it is recommended that the strain be used in moderation.

Medical

Ailing patients looking for a ray of hope can turn to Sunshine. While it does not totally cure medical conditions, the strain’s healing properties help appease some mental and bodily issues.

As alluded to earlier, Sunshine induces an energetic blissful high that boosts both mood and morale. This cerebral buzz cheers on those going through a difficult time. As such, it has the ability to provide temporary relief for those with depression or PTSD.

Besides enhancing the mood, Sunshine can also alleviate physiological issues. Its analgesic properties soothe muscles. In relaxing the body, it eases different kinds of physical discomfort like fatigues, headaches, and chronic pain.

Growing

Like most licensed producers, Peace Naturals Project prefers to maintain a proprietary hold on their strains. As such, they have made Sunshine’s seeds unavailable to the rest of the market. However, growers may cultivate the plant through clippings.

Because of its structure, Sunshine requires extra care and attention. As a Sativa, the plant grows taller than its Indica counterparts. It also tends to be less sturdy. As a result, resin-filled buds may break off the branch from which it grows from. Thus, it is important to top the plant early to promote lateral branching.

Like other plants, Sunshine thrives in a semi-humid but sunny environment with daytime temperatures between 21°C and 27°C. To ensure that the temperature to humidity ratio is balanced, growers should place hygrometers all around the grow room or the garden. Checking and adjusting it every few hours as the light cycle changes.

Sunshine’s buds should begin to taper a week or two into its blooming phase. Its colors also turn into a minty shade of green with vivid orange pistils covering it. A sight to behold, the beautiful coat of trichome glistens when shined on.

Flowering Time

Indoors

Like most Sativas, Sunshine requires a longer flowering period lasting about 9 to 10 weeks. Once it blooms, growers can harvest 8 to 12 ounces of buds per square meter.

Outdoors

In the outdoors, Sunshine flowers by the last week of October. Regardless, the strain produces at least 12 ounces per plant.
