With a near-even balance between sativa and indica (sativa/indica ratio of 45/55), Chemdawg, also known as Chemdog, delivers on both fronts. A clear cerebral high drives creativity while a stony, sleepy body high fights insomnia and relaxes the muscles. This strain has THC levels up to 18%, meaning it’s more potent than most. It has a powerful spicy, plant-like taste and smell with a hint of diesel; the aroma alone can alert snoopy neighbors to even a carefully concealed pot grow. Not surprisingly, Chemdawg is used to produce Sour Diesel, one of the world’s most popular strains. Little is known about Chemdawg’s history or genetics, though there are urban legends involving a Grateful Dead concert, a handful of seeds, and a grower named Chemdog. Best for anxiety and pain, this strain is also helpful with depression and ADHD, as well as migraines, arthritis, and PMS. Dry mouth and dry eyes are possible when using this strain, while other side effects are less likely. Chemdawg is most popular on the West Coast, in Nevada, and in Colorado. It’s possible to find on the black market but doesn’t come around very often.

First time with this strain and not disappointing, comes on slow but once dug in this Kush stands out as smooth and blissful. This will quickly be my evening strain of choice because of the gentle but potent cerebral high. Not for newbies ;because of its slow climb you can hit this too much too fast and nighty night … just sayin

Pain? What pain? That’s what you’ll be saying after a bong hit or 2 of this. One of the best strains for pain I’ve ever had!

It’s insane how much this strain has helped with my medical issues. It’s rare that I find a strain that will completely help with medical problems, but also help me be happy, become more creative, and stay awake.

In my experience chemdawg is magical, pain-relieving, sleep-inducing, arousing and tingly, comfy and cozy, giggly and happy.

This is turning out to be my go-to strain, especially if I’m having joint pain or needing to quiet my mind.
