I could tell from the start that Proxy Dust and I were going to be friends. When it comes to sativas, I am a picky user. Many sativa strains have the terpene limonene, which is great for focus and increased attention. Unfortunately, it also tends to provoke my anxiety- one of the very things for which I medicate. So when I saw that this strain boasted low-to-no levels of the stuff I'm trying to avoid and high amounts of the stuff I want (okay, okay, and it was on sale due to its expiration date), I knew that this was a strain I was meant to try.
When taking it out of the packaging, I immediately noticed medium-to-large buds covered with pistils ("hairs") and brushed abundantly with trichomes ("crystals"). As I like my sativas to be a particularly heady experience, just from its looks, Proxy Dust seemed like it could be the right experience. (Note: I haven't explained trichomes yet. Be prepared for a piece on those at some point!) The only negative thing I could say about the buds, themselves, is that they were clearly not hand-cut due to the amount of leaves that were left. While I may be particular about my meds, this luckily is not a deal-breaker for me. Really, the amount of stems and leaves I picked off was minimal- no big deal.
The smell was exactly what I wanted it to be: a little woody with just the touch of sweetness. It was like cut grass that had been sitting for a day or two. When grinding the bud, the sweetness came out even more. It was like the smell of walking on the edge of where a field turns to forest. Not pungent, just nice. The taste is similar to the smell of the grind, but the sweetness is almost a berry flavor.
What's it good for? Being social. Being creative. It's incredibly uplifting!
What's it good for? Being social. Being creative. It's incredibly uplifting! I noticed an increased level of productivity after partaking, despite having completed all of my tasks for the day. I simply felt great. Was it the highest high? No. But it did exactly what I wanted it to do. I would absolutely get this strain again.
