Strain of the Month: Sundae Driver 

Strain of the Month: Sundae Driver 

It’s Sundae Not Sunday! Who Knew? 

At RiverBluff Collective, we’ve seen strains come and go, but some stand out from the rest. Sundae Driver, often misnamed Sunday Driver, lives up to its name in both cases. It is relaxing like a lazy Sunday afternoon and a sweet blissful treat after an outstanding meal like a Sundae. This strain was developed by the crazy crew of cats over at Cannarado Genitics in Colorado but has made its way throughout the country, finding itself in many dispensaries and cannabis breeding and grow rooms. Sundae Driver only traces its roots back to the 2010s but has already produced amazing offspring of its own like Driving Miss Daisy. Sundae Driver always stands out in the crowd. Its bag appeal is amazing, its smell and taste are otherworldly, and effects are on point for every variety of consumer. So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about some weed stuff! 

The Basics 

Sundae Driver is generally a balanced hybrid, but the plant can find itself leaning indica or sativa on occasion. Even when leaning slightly one way or the other, it doesn’t affect the overall enjoyment of the strain. Connarado Genetics developed the strain by crossing two sweet, considered dessert, strains in Fruity Pebbles OG and Grape Pie. The result was a sweet strain that wasn’t overpowering and suited for all. It doesn’t come with the highest THC count in the world, but it does come with all the flavor! Its unique flavor profile has been what made it a mainstay on shelves and how it made its name in breeding programs. There is no denying Sundae Driver is here to stay.  

Bag Appeal 

The dominant terpenes in Sundae Driver are Limonene, Caryophyllene and Humulene. This terpene profile gives Sundae Driver an aroma of fruity ice cream and slight earthy hints of dark chocolate. When smoked you can taste floral notes, mixed berry, and a touch of diesel. It grows in many variations, so buds can range in color from light green to darker purples. The look, smell, and taste of this strain give Sundae Driver a tremendous bag appeal that cannot be ignored. Check out RiverBluff Collective’s terpenes blog for a more detailed overview of all the terpenes. 

Effects 

Smoking Sundae Driver gives you the best of both worlds, indica and sativa, and blends them together to make a strain few can complain about. It comes with a heavy body high and a general relaxation of the mind like an indica. It is also known to enhance creativity and provide you with a euphoric feeling of happiness. This is definitely a strain for any time-of-day. It rarely disappoints! 

Should You Try It? 

Sundae Driver is new royalty among dessert strains and that has made it very popular for consumers, retailers, and growers alike. For those who love dessert strains, Sundae driver may be the cream of the crop. For those who don’t, let Sundae Driver try to change your mind. No matter what side of the dessert fence you are on, this strain is a can’t miss. Much like its ice cream name’s sake, even when it is bad it is still pretty good!

5 Historical Cannabis Smokers You’d Never Guess! 

5 Historical Cannabis Smokers You’d Never Guess! 

RiverBluff Collective hates to see people stuck casting cannaconsumers in the same old stereotypes. Those who consume cannabis aren’t by default dumb, lazy, unmotivated, or unfit. Some of the most successful people ever have smoked weed, eaten THC-infused edibles, or enjoyed other THC products, and they managed to overcome those stereotypes to leave a lasting mark on history. This list could be filled will artists and musicians but those would have been easily guessed and that’s not the name of the article. So kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about people you’d never guess were into weed stuff! 

Barack Obama 

Okay, so you may have guessed this one, but it is still fascinating. The most recent entry on the list, Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States of America, became the first presidential candidate to openly admit to having smoked cannabis. He didn’t dodge the question like Bill Clinton did. Clinton claimed he never inhaled; Obama said “Yes I inhaled that was kind of the point.”  

Though Barack may have put his smoking days behind him, in 2011 the Obamas became the first president and first lady to grow medicinal marijuana in the presidential garden. Strangely enough the gardener charged with the care of these plants was named Tommy Chong. Not the Tommy Chong, but very serendipitous to say the least. Who knew they were growing weed at the White House? So, cool! Obama would be looking for a Sundae Driver preroll no doubt! 

Steve Jobs 

Steve Jobs may be the most driven person to ever live. The former head of Apple took the personal computer out of the office and placed them in people’s homes. Without him, there is a decent chance smart phones wouldn’t be as advanced as they are now. Jobs wasn’t just a fan of cannabis – he also enjoyed LSD. Though he claimed to leave his cannabis consumption in the 70s, he left the world with unbelievable stories. Like the time he and Wozniak tried to get the Pope on the phone just for fun. If Steve were still around, he’d probably pop by the shop for a Apple Tart preroll. 

Carl Sagan 

Carl Sagan is on the short list of the smartest people to have ever lived. Sagan, a decorated astronomer, brought science into the mainstream during the 1970s with the TV show Cosmos, which he wrote and presented. When the government had questions about space, they called Carl Sagan. Sagan never shied away from his vocal love of cannabis and the need for cannabis law reform. Carl was always prepared to discuss the benefits of cannabis as he did in this article about why he liked smoking marijuana. If Carl were still around, he’d probably be trying blast off with RiverBluff’s Starman gummies. 

Arnold Schwarzenegger 

You’ve read about a charismatic pothead, a driven pothead, and a genius pothead but what about the physically fit pothead? How about one of the most physically fit people of all time? Arnold Schwarzenegger! That’s right. The man who was once a muscle mountain loved to hit the ganja after lifting. Several shots of him hitting the green can be seen in the documentary Pumping Iron. Arnold would go from bodybuilding, to acting to politics. Not too shabby for a stoner speaking their second language. Arnold would probably be into something strong like him such as RiverBluff’s Bluff Pops. 

William Shakespeare 

This one may be a bit farfetched. It is not like there are pictures, interviews, or references to Shakespeare smoking cannabis. However, that doesn’t mean there is no evidence that big Bill liked to toke a bit. Though experts refuse to agree, the clay pipes with drug residue found by archeologists at Shakespeare’s home cannot be denied. This one may have the least evidence to prove it but may be the most fascinating. The writer by which all writers are judged may have been just as high as the rest of us while he wrote! That’s pretty cool! RiverBluff thinks Billy would be show his affections with more than just word but with RiverBluff’s chocolate.
