While most people look at marijuana and cringe over the possibility of acquiring unwanted psychedelic effects while forcefully getting drowned in a pungent and odorous stench, they are missing all the other delightful experiences and exotic flavors that the plant can offer.
Contrary to the popular belief of cannabis critics, weed can offer varying intensities in its high and may take on different delightful flavors that can range from fruity to candy-like.
Although the infamous pungent taste and skunky aroma of pot are common traits of a highly potent classic strain, it may not always be the case for some strains.
In fact, here is a pretty good example of a cannabis variety with an incredible potency, a well-rounded high and an unexpectedly delicious flavor.
This strain is called Nuken. Nuken is like a dangerously potent yet innocently sweet strain.
Unlike most weed with more or less the same potency, this tough pot tastes more like candy, giving users an interestingly delicious high.
On top of that, the strain has a solid lineage behind it that only strengthen its credibility.
Read on and learn more about this strain. Below is a collection of valuable data about Nuken that prospective users and growers should know about.
Nuken’s history originates in Canada where the infamous Cash Crop Ken crossed Shishkaberry and the award-winning strain God Bud.
The Nuken strain is a relatively classic hybrid that is now gaining popularity throughout the Pacific Northwest and in the states of Oregon and Washington.
This Indica-dominant variety is famous for the interesting contrast of its strong yet delicious high.

However, some sources would argue that its THC levels can reach as high as 30%

Either way, the strain is currently regarded as a highly potent variety that is certainly not for the faint-hearted.
Nuken is Indica-dominant with a concentration ratio of 80:20 and its high is known to be quick and long-lasting.
The onset starts with a cerebral stimulation that leads users into an uplifting euphoria and a happy state of mind.
This head buzz often leaves users a little bit too giggly which makes it a good strain choice for social activities.
There are also a few reports of the strain sending users into a deep introspection that has the tendency of feeling a bit spacey.
Nonetheless, the strain’s physical high is characterized as a relaxing feeling that is not entirely sedative but may cause users to feel sleepy and find themselves locked on the couch especially in higher doses.
This strong Indica effect makes Nuken an ideal evening strain.

Fragrance
Nuken’s smell boasts of sweet marshmallows with a distinct hint of pungent skunk and earthy undertones, making it one of the tastiest highly potent strains available.

The minimal Sativa concentration in the strain lessens the possibility of psychological effects among users.

There are only a few reported cases that may involve anxiety, dizziness, and headache.
Medical
Nuken’s hybrid effects make the strain a well-rounded medicinal alternative for various health conditions.
For one, its uplifting cerebral high can be an effective stress reliever for users who need a quick break from a stressful day at work.
At the same time, the blissful nature of its mental stimulation can aid patients who are dealing with depression.
