Black Series – Five Alive

What’s Five Alive cannabis strain all about?

Five Alive is the original name of Sensi Seeds’ 55/45 hybrid that they now call Fruity Juice, perhaps to avoid trademark infringement. Five Alive smells and tastes sweet and smooth, and many users describe it tasting like Pina Colada and dark berries or plums. The buds are colorful and may exhibit the entire spectrum of cannabis coloring. Five Alive’s parents are two landraces: a Thailand Sativa and an Indica from Afghanistan. Named for its bouquet of fruity aromas, this near-even balance of sativa and indica tastes and smells very much like fruit punch and lemon. Some describe the flavors as closer to piña colada and plums.

The buds of 5 Alive are compact and dense, with a bright yellow-green color and dark brown pistils that poke out over the frosty covered trichomes. Five Alive tastes of sharp citrus and fruit. Some describe the flavors as closer to piña colada and plums.

Five Alive Effects

Sativa is dominant in Five Alive. It boosts moods, fills users with energy and seems to create a ‘time warp’, slowing the perception of time for the users. The high can last up to three hours and can stimulate focus and creativity. The cerebral effects taper off without leaving users feeling drained. As a result, the strain is often prescribed as daytime relief for depression, stress, and anxiety. A mild body high may also accompany the cerebral effects and can assist in alleviating pain and nausea.

THC levels can reach 20%, providing for a powerful combination of head and body buzz. Five Alive contains about 1% CBD, meanwhile, making it a better-than-average choice for patients who experience seizures or other symptoms that respond to CBD. Breeders created this strain by crossing an original Afghani indica with a pure Thai sativa, a process that resulted in a 55:45 sativa/indica ratio. The high, which can be quite strong, is intensely euphoric, a mix of physical relaxation and cerebral mood boost.

Final Thoughts on Five Alive

The dominant feeling is one of euphoria. Five Alive is a strong medical tool for patients dealing with anxiety, mood disorders, depression, lack of appetite, and physical pain. Many users report dry mouth and red eyes, while other negative effects appear to be more limited. This medical favorite can be found up and down the West Coast, as well as in Colorado. It occasionally appears on the black market as well.
