UBC Chemo

Here’s a strain that can appeal to medical patients and recreational smokers equally. UBC Chemo is a pure Indica with a mysterious past. Some believe that it originated in British Columbia during the 1970s as a way to help alleviate the side effects of Chemotherapy – hence its name.

Regardless of whether that’s true, its genetics remain lost to time. Its powerful earthy scent seems to indicate that it has some Kush parents in its pedigree, but at this point, we’ll simply never know. Ultimately it doesn’t matter where this strain came from. Instead, what matters is its effects and taste – which will quickly make a fan out of any smoker.

What Does UBC Chemo Look and Smell Like?

UBC Chemo has an uncommon, wide aromatic profile. Its scent, boasting hints of Kushy earth, herbs, citrus, and pine, leave the nose with a distinct tingle. Advancing further, once you spark some of this strain up, its flavour changes drastically. This pivot involves new tastes, including a candy-like sweetness, coming into the fold. Its aroma is fairly attractive too, treating users to visual splendour with its shining, potent trichome crystal sheath.

What Is UBC Chemo’s High Like?

When you spark up some UBC Chemo, make sure to have plenty of snacks on-hand. It’s well-known for giving smokers the munchies, couch-locking them with its heavy body load. Smokers also report that this strain helps them feel happy and relaxed, and may help them sleep better.

Although recreational users will love UBC Chemo’s high, it was originally designed for medical patients (or so the story goes). Toking on this strain proves that point. It’s pretty powerful. Medical patients say that it can help them manage symptoms of issues like anxiety, chronic pain, and poor sleep. As a result, it may be an effective way to boost appetite and combat insomnia, arthritis, and glaucoma.
