Harlequin Strain

The Harlequin Strain of Marijuana is rich in CBD cannabinoids
Harlequin Marijuana Strain is High in CBD

Harlequin strain is for patients of medical marijuana looking for high pain relief. Harlequin is known for its high potency of the cannabinoid CBD. A ratio of 5:2 CBD to THC gives medication that is low in psycho-active sedation. Having some THC allows for the analgesic to be more effective than other strains that are void of THC. Harlequin is 75% sativa dominant which gives the effects of alertness while giving the ability to relax.

The Harlequin strain is a cross between the Columbian Gold, Swiss and Thai sativa with a Nepalese Indica Landrace strain. The smell has been described as sweet and tropical while the taste is fairly bland to sweet. The buds are thick with trichome orange hairs which overtake the green in the bud. Most strains while being cultivated increase in CBD while maturing. Harlequin is unique in that its highest concentration of CBD is earlier and diminishes with maturity.

OUTCO typically stocks Harlequin as a tincture for patients. Our staff in El Cajon just outside of San Diego is knowledgeable and compassionate to care for their members needs. Patients describe Harlequin for helping pain, seizures, anxiety, stress, nausea and muscle spasms. Please stop by or contact us for individual attention to your questions and needs.

The Differences Cannabis Raw, Heated or Aged

The Differences Cannabis Raw, Heated or Aged

Different cannabinoids are created when the flower is exposed to UV light, aging, oxidation and heat. Each cannabinoid has unique medicinal effects.

Cannabis is unique in that it is the only plant able to produce cannabigerolicacid (CBGa). The first cannabinoid the cannabis plant produces in raw form is CBGa. Cannabis synthesizes through natural enzymes to change CBGa into three main cannabinoid branches. CBGa is in an unstable form and typically is converted to other cannabinoids quickly. These three cannabinoids types are tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCa), Cannabidiolic acid (CBDa) and Cannabichromenic acid (CBCa).

Heat changes cannabinoids into THC, CBD, CBG and CBN. This conversion process is created by losing a carbon dioxide molecule (CO2). In this state they are thought to be in a neutral form. When a strain has a high CBGa content smoking it will add heat and change it to CBG.

Raw or heated cannabis can turn into different cannabinoids when it has oxidation and age. THCa with oxidation will change to CBNa. Aged THC will change into CBN or Tetra8 THC. When aged CBC will turn into CBL. Raw CBCa turns into CBLa over time.

Cannabis Strains that are High in CBD


Most cannabis strains on the market are bred for their cannabinoid potency in THC, which is the active part that give a psycho effect. There are 85 active cannabinoids that are known in cannabis and cannabidiol or CBD is growing in popularity for it's high effectiveness for medicinal use without the psycho-active properties.


Treatment with Cannabidiol CBD

Cannabidiol in marijuana is the second most prevalent cannabinoid behind THC. At first it was thought the only benefit of CBD was to counteract the stoned effect that THC gives. However, CBD has been shown in research to give anti-inflammatory, analgesic and lower anxiety without the psycho-active effects that THC gives. These benefits have shown promising results for treatment in crohn's disease, PTSD, multiple sclerosis and a form of epilepsy called Dravet's Syndrome. Strains high in THC are usually at levels of 20% above, where CBD over 4% are known to be in high concentration. The FDA is approving a study this year to look at the effectiveness of CBD in children to hopefully make this a more accessible treatment.(Source)

Many patients are vocal about the importance of THC with CBD for complete effectiveness as a treatment. The government has acquired a patent for the benefits in THC, and research has showed it to help with appetite loss, nausea, multiple sclerosis and pain. Allowing to manage the percentage amount of THC and CBD gives the most effectiveness as well as also having control of how it is consumed. (Source)

The History of Kush Cannabis Strains

Kush Strains
The popular kush strains originate from the fertile mountains and valleys of the Hindu Kush Mountains in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Part of the Himalayan mountains, this region for centuries has cultivated indica dominant cannabis, some of the worlds finest plants. The 1960's and 70's brought travelers from far and wide to bring back seeds, including the members of the Brotherhood of Eternal Love, based in Southern California. In 1973 Afghanistan made the sale of hashish illegal.

The shorter times of the indica genetics allowed from shortened flowering times helping people to grow further north and grow their own. Kush is known for it's citrus flavor with a skunk odor, a high potent couch lock effect that lasts long, great for nighttime.(Source) Terpenes which are the flavor and smells that attribute to the cannabis also add to how the medicinal values take effect. Kush varieties have varied terpenes, showing that the hybrid pairing makes them all different and unique. Here are some popular Kush Strains that Outliers Collective have had in inventory and our patients have enjoyed:

Mr. Nice Cannabis Strain, the Origin of the Name


Mr. Nice is a Cannabis Strain that OUTCO currently has in stock, an Indica that is a cross between a G13 and Hash Plant well known for it's potency. Patients describe it as heavy and strong with a mellow effect. People that use it recommend it to help with pain. G13 was taken off the market in the 80's but Sensei Seeds has brought it back as a cross naming it Mr. Nice. The name Mr. Nice comes from an autobiography of an infamous marijuana smuggler, Howard Marks. (Source)

The original G13 Strain came about when urban legend has it that a worker stole a cutting that was at a government research facility in Mississippi. Sensei Seeds paired it with the Hash Plant to enhance it's qualities and released it with the name Mr. Nice in 1999. These two heavyweights together many hail as the ultimate Indica hybrid.(Source) and (Source)

The colorful story of Mr. Nice, Howard Marks began in Oxford University when he sold Cannabis to his college friends. He came in contact with some bigger smugglers that sought after him to join them for his ability to be under the radar with the police and not having a criminal record. He was able to help them launder the money with his clean record.

A Gun Smuggler for the Irish Republican Army (IRA) was hired with his group to help smuggle cannabis into Ireland, which lead to the UK's Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) to contact him about helping their organization with drug producing countries and his connection with the IRA. He continued to broaden his smuggling by exporting to the United States to the Brotherhood of Eternal Love (a smuggling group of cannabis in Orange County). After the Little John Affair where another double agent with the MI6 and IRA was discovered, Howard Marks ceased his relationship with the MI6.

Howard Mark's writes about his career as a smuggler, where he had 43 aliases, one as Mr. Nice, a stolen passport from a convicted murderer Donald Nice:

"Between 1975 and 1978, twenty-four loads totaling 55,000 pounds of marijuana and hashish had been successfully imported through John F. Kennedy Airport, New York. They had involved the Mafia, the Yakuza, the Brotherhood of Eternal Love, the Thai army, the Palestine Liberation Organization, the Pakistani Armed Forces, Nepalese monks, and other individuals from all walks of life. The total profit made by all concerned was $48,000,000. They'd had a good run."

In 1988 Howard Marks along with his wife were arrested tipped off by many of his partners being arrested and giving tips. In 1990 Howard Marks was sentenced to 25 years and $50,000, and was released after 7 years for good behavior.

Howard Marks currently does book readings and is an activist for the legalization of marijuana. He published an Autobiography Mr. Nice in 1996 and has written other books along with appearing in movies and television shows. In 2010 the movie Mr. Nice was released which was a biography of Howard Mark's life.(Source)
