Its effects are often described as euphoric, creative, and relaxing. Users may experience a cerebral uplift that enhances mood and creativity, along with a physical relaxation that doesn't lead to excessive sedation. This balance makes MAC 1 suitable for various activities, from socializing to creative pursuits, while also offering relaxation without the heaviness associated with pure Indica strains. MAC 1 comes through with a strong sour diesel note that’s accented by citrus and spicy herbs.
Linage: MAC 1 is the result of crossing Alien Cookies, Colombian, and Starfighter strains. Alien Cookies is a hybrid of Girl Scout Cookies and Alien Dawg. Colombian is a close relative of the even more famous Acapulco Gold, and Starfighter is a cross of the infamous Alien Tahoe OG and Lemon Alien Dawg strains. This combination of genetics contributes to MAC 1's distinct characteristics.
