Anesthesia’s story began in Europe, where Whazzup crossed a Positronics Skunk Afghani female with a Sannie-bred and selected Motarebel Herijuana male. The result was an Afghan-flavored strain that gives a deep, relaxing buzz that’s said to help manage pain.

Whazzup said the strain -- grown best indoors -- has mostly indica lineage, which explains its low, branchy growth and short, eight-week flowering period. He said the strain tends to produce sedative effects due to its Herijuana influence, “renown for high THC percentage.”
