I love the earthy tones in this weed, and the 18% THC makes a great option for bong smokers as other strains can hit pretty fast whch I guess is cool to some but not me. The high is very relaxing, perfect for ending a long day at work.

Hit a bong of this weed on one crazy morning with my boys before attending a lecture and Ive never tried so hard to stay awake in my life. Learned two things that day, one is that never smoke kush and ask for the strain name later and the other is that Critical is best hit at night. Before sleeping preferably because you won’t do much after a joint of this.
