It is quite hard ruling out the best time to smoke this strain because it offers a rollercoaster ride of effects. First gives you energy and concentration and thereafter makes you want to rest and sleep
Gold Leaf helps me with my add, usually cant focus when working on a huge project but the concentration I get from this kush is amazing. I am not considering venturing out to another strain yet
I personally recommed you smoke it in the afternoon, not too soon to bed time because it first gives you a burst of energy and then when it wears off it sort of sedates you
I usually wake up too tired to even place my foot on the floor, but ever since I started smoking this mary jane, it has helped with getting rid of that fatigue
MFn weed got me all friendly with people I dont even know
