Ten years ago I grew a strain called Casey Jones.
I remember it as one of my favorite strains of all time. It had an almost sweet / candy taste, with fluffy moderately airy buds.
I originally fell in love we cannabis due to the trippy nature of my first dozen experiences. They were truly psychedelic experiences, which filled me with true wonder. In time, however, sativa or sativa-dominant hybrids gave me serious anxiety when I smoked. Then came Casey.
The most notable thing about Casey Jones for me was that it was moderately psychedelic but had a relaxed, almost euphoric high. It wasn't the wild laugh-your-ass off high of new smokers, and it wasn't the totally stoned indica high of the popular strains out there. Rather, it relieved any smoking-related anxiety, gave muscle relaxation without a strong feeling of being physically stoned, and allowed me to focus on the moment, who I was with, and whatever creative idea we were talking about at the time - all without worrying about the environment around me.
I remember smoking home-grown Casey Jones once on a warm summer day and experiencing what one could almost describe as fleeting synesthesia. I was super relaxed, not a care in the world, but not stoned. I saw a bird dart quickly across the sky in my peripheral vision, but the sensation was experienced as a sound. The person I was with had the same experience, and this caused us both to quickly look around for the source of the noise. When he took a drink of his beverage soon thereafter, he described it as "drinking the universe through a straw." We were both seasoned smokers at the time.
Casey Jones was the type of smoke that, as someone split between creative and logical dominance, I could smoke and dive deep into a creative project. I could be productive and focused. It may have triggered a flow state.
Dominance-wise I'm not sure sure what it was. Visually it didn't have obvious sativa leaves, so I think it must have been a hybrid. Looking through my post history, it looks like it was second-tier on my list when I was searching for anti-anxiety strains
I'm extremely glad I was able to smoke this strain, but I would love to experience it again. I kept male pollen, but no original seeds.
Does anyone know where I might be able to find this Casey Jones? A quick search shows CJ is still a name of cannabis strains, but I don't see the original breeder I purchased from. How are strains / names among breeders handled these days? If I buy something called Casey Jones, it's probably a coin flip whether it's related to the original strain, right?
Looking through my post history, it looks like I commented in this thread started by Grat3fulh3ad. It's archived under Seedbay > Seedbay Private Breeders > Archived Breeder Forums > Head Seeds > Spring 2010.
Best I can tell I’m looking for Casey Jones by Grat3fulh3ad / Head Seeds. Anyone know what happened to them? Looks like they are long retired. Are there other breeders who took over the line, or any directly related genetics?
I know I’m unlikely to be able to find this specific strain, but I thought I’d inquire. Plus I want to share my past experience with my girl CJ.
