Strain Highlight: Do-Si-Dos

Hey folks!  It’s been a minute since we’ve posted a blog, we were waiting for our new fancy website to get up and running, because every now and then you’ve gotta shake things up! Anyway, without further ado, Welcome back to another pulse pounding edition of Circa 1818’s strain highlight, where we talk about a specific strain of cannabis so that you can impress people with your wry wit, subtle charm and vast knowledge of weed.

                This week, we’re going to be talking about a strain that made a real splash the last couple of times we brough it into the store. It hasn’t been one we’ve had in a while, but it’s making a come back! I’m speaking of the catatonia inducing gangbuster that is Do-Si-Dos.

Origin

                Do-Si-Dos has a fantastic set of parents, being the love child of Girl Scout Cookies and Face Off OG. Girl Scout Cookies is effectively cannabis royalty and Face Off OG isn’t far behind it in terms of clout, so Do-Si-Dos came into being with the weed equivalent of a head start. This strain popped into the world in 2016 thanks to the efforts of a breeder known as Archive Seed Bank, a setup out in Portland, Oregon who are well known in the California cannabis genetics community.

Will it get me stoney baloney?

                Simply put, yes. Do-Si-Dos is has an immediate, energetic effect coming from the Face Off OG side of things that hits you right behind the eyes before it slowly melts you down with the indica features that Girl Scout Cookies is famous for. The result is that you will slip between the cracks in your couch like a bunch of lost change, so make sure you set something up to watch/play before the indica effects kick in. Once it hits, you won’t want to move much.

                Aroma wise, this strain features the terpene Limonene in bountiful quantities, giving it a nice citrus flavour that is tempered by the creamy taste of the Girl Scout Cookies genetic parent. So not only are the effects wicked cool but also the nose on this strain is out of this world.

                In terms of who this strain is best for, it’s ideal for those who are looking for relief from pain, anxiety and of course, sleeplessness. It’s a very high testing flower, regularly clocking in at near 30% THC with a collection of terps that create that manic, energetic high that’s followed by a luxurious decline into relaxation.

                That about sums up this edition of Strain Highlights! If you’re a fan of hard hitting, dynamic cannabis strains that will give you all of the bang for your buck, look no further than Do-Si-Dos. You’ll be thrilled you took that trip.
