As America remains embroiled in conflict overseas, a less visible war is taking place at home, costing countless lives, destroying families, and inflicting untold damage upon future generations of Americans. In forty years, the War on Drugs has accounted for more than 45 million arrests, made America the world’s largest jailer, and damaged poor communities at home and abroad. Yet for all that, drugs are cheaper, purer, and more available today than ever before. Filmed in more than twenty states, THE HOUSE I LIVE IN captures heart-wrenching stories from individuals at all levels of America’s War on Drugs. From the…
Skunk #1 revolutionized the world of cannabis, creating an entirely new concept in hybrid strains and providing a building block for some of today’s best-loved cannabis varieties. Sensi Seeds took this groundbreaking hybrid to the next level, blending it with a rare and resinous Afghani hash plant to create Super Skunk. This heavyweight newcomer was awarded the mostly-Indica Cannabis Cup almost immediately upon being released in 1990. Super Skunk Feminized is a splendid all-round performer. Thriving plants deliver low-maintenance harvests of super-tasty, super-powerful buds to novices, connoisseurs and commercial croppers alike. Plant growth is consistent, predictable and vigorous, and during…
Throughout the conflict in Northern Ireland both Republican and Loyalist paramilitaries have exacted violent and sometimes murderous ‘punishments’ on those they accused of having wronged their communities. Since the 1990s, the accusation most commonly levelled against the victims of these ‘punishment’ attacks and murders has been one of involvement in the trade in illegal drugs. This brutal paramilitary ‘justice’ is one of the least researched aspects of the Northern Irish conflict. Such “rough justice” has persisted and even increased in ferocity in spite of ceasefire declarations by the leading paramilitary groups. There is some suspicion that the British State has…
Of all the Indica-Sativa hybrids created in the quest for the ultimate blend of deep stone and stellar high, Northern Lights #5 x Haze has perhaps come closest to achieving perfection. A finely tuned fusion of tropical Sativa and Afghan genetics, Northern Lights #5 x Haze Feminized is rapidly becoming as famous as the original, one of Sensi’s most celebrated cannabis varieties. Some hybrid cannabis strains show a tendency for the Sativa side to be dominated by the Indica, the high almost overwhelmed by the stone. Feminized Northern Lights #5 x Haze succeeds in fully bringing out the Sativa power…
San Francisco, CA: Cannabis inhalation is associated with significantly reduced incidences of convulsions in a pair of epileptic patients, according to a forthcoming case report in the journal Epilepsy & Behavior.

In the first subject, cannabis inhalation reportedly reduced the frequency of nighttime seizures from an average of five-to-six per evening to an average of one-to-two. After the subject ceased using cannabis, the subject experienced ten evening seizures. Following dosing with…

Big Bud enjoys a well-earned reputation for being one of the ultimate high yielding cannabis strains This feminised seed variety builds on the potent Indica heritage of the original Big Bud, painstakingly cultivated over many years to result in gigantic harvests of cannabis with a delicious, potent flavour and effect. Big Bud originated from a hybrid of a strong, chunky Afghanica and a vigorous, high-yielding Skunk. The resulting plants thrived mightily and produced far greater amounts of dense resin-covered flowers than expected. Careful crossbreeding with an exceptional Afghani enhanced the Indica qualities of this new seed line, producing a cannabis…

The cream of the crop and perhaps the most exquisite ganja that enthusiasts will ever encounter, Jack Herer® ranks as the most awarded variety in the history of harvest festivals Nine awards and counting could reasonably be the pinnacle of recognition for any strain, yet Jack Herer® succeeds in going a step further and bears the distinction of being distributed under prescription by Dutch pharmacies as a recognised medicinal strain of cannabis. Sensi’s champagne of strains is named in honour of Jack Herer, author of The Emperor Wears No Clothes. Thanks to his landmark book and tireless activism throughout his…
