Jamaican Lion Strain - Growing Tips and Medical Effects

Jamaican Lion is a high-CBD sativa strain with mildly psychoactive effects that stimulate creativity and focus without the loss of functionality. Its prosperous genetic background mixes Mountain Lion -- a Rock Bud and Lionheart cross -- accompanied by a Jamaican sativa referred to as Yarders. Shadrock, Jamaican Lion's creator, first brought the strain to California in 2007, where it was distributed to consumers by Harborside. Ushered in by a tastey herbal scent, Jamaican Lion produces mild psychoactivity that carries through despite its low THC content. Sensory perception sharpens as bad moods dull in clear-headed sensations that can be described as simultaneously inspiring and relaxing. Few strains compare to Jamaican Lion as it eases pain, anxiety, and inflammation without intoxication or mental cloudiness. Its CBD content is highest around week 9 of flowering, although if you're seeking more of a 1:1 combination of CBD and THC, Shadrock recommends harvesting at week 8 instead.
