Friday Smoking Guide for Coachella one of the hottest tickets in the world

Friday Smoking Guide for Coachella one of the hottest tickets in the world

For months, you’ve been making intensely-curated playlists and incessantly checking set time prediction threads on Reddit, all in anticipation of Coachella, one of the hottest tickets in the world.

Today is day one of your weekend-long quest for unmatched vibes and a next-level Snapchat story, but it won’t all be flower crowns and beach balls. You’ll be faced with difficult decisions around every dusty corner, forcing you to pick between consistently dope acts on competing stages all day and night.

Then, there’s the rest of you at home, the ones who aren’t attending arguably the most marquee music event in the world.

Don’t worry, it happens to the best of us — and by best of us, I mean all of us, considering that the festival sold all of its general admission weekend passes in just three short hours.

Whether you’re the overeager car-painter who gets a weird tan from sitting in five hours worth of traffic on Avenue 50 with your foot out the window, or the regretful non-attendee watching livestreams from home — we have just what you need.

Not only will this Smoking Guide help you easily decide which stage (or livestream channel) to hit next but what strain as well.

I’ve paired some of Friday’s must-see sets with some of the finest cannabis products available in hopes of elevating the experience and creating memories that will last a lifetime, or until the two VIP passes you bought when General Admission sold out show up on your credit card statement.

The perfect way to start any day is with a heaping bowl of Apple Jacks, a delicious treat that CA Unified has expertly embodied in this Sativa-dominant Hybrid that will instantly wipe away any stress you picked up in traffic along the way.

Pair CA Unified’s Apple Jacks, which is a 70/30 Sativa Hybrid of Jack Herer and White Widow, with early sets on Friday packed with high energy, fun, and dancing. Kayves, who is playing at 12:25 p.m. on the Gobi stage, offers the kind of upbeat melody that can really get your day going in the right direction when paired with a wake-and-bake standout such as the Apple Jacks.

As you continue your Coachella journey, the dancing may have you feeling a bit spent. A quick hit of your Brass Knuckles pen, specifically their top-notch Sour Diesel, will have you re-energized in no time — ready to make crucial decisions such as The Paranoyds on Sonora stage or British grime sensation Stormzy at 3 p.m. on the Outdoor Stage.

As we get closer to 4:20, it’s a perfect time to unwind and chill for a little bit. Find a tranquil place to slow down for a bit and just enjoy the music. Indicas like Mega Wellness from Nameless Genetics will help relax your body and ease any nagging pains, which can be invaluable at festivals when you’ve been walking, standing, dancing, and jumping in what are most likely a pair of flip-flops. Make sure you can see the Mojave stage at 16:20 sharp so as not to miss the angelic sonic musings of Sampha. His set should be the perfect opportunity to sit down, break up your bud, and roll up something special just for the occasion. If you’re watching from the comfort of your computer screen, Sampha’s set will appear on channel 2 of the live stream.

After you finish wiping the Sampha-induced tears from your face, it’s a race against the clock to see both Macs perform — DeMarco and Miller, which also sounds like an infomercial law firm that could offer you a substantial amount of money if you’ve been injured in an accident recently. If you’re going to pull off the oft-rumored but rarely attempted “Triple Mac” Challenge, you’ll need laser focus — the kind that can only be achieved by smoking strategically with a short session-friendly mini joint from Chief. Their Candyland prerolls will offer you the perfect Sativa fuel to complete your epic quest for three Macs.

First, you’ll need to go see Mac DeMarco perform at 5:25 p.m. on the Outdoor Stage (Channel 1 live stream). Once that wraps up around 6:15 p.m., you’ll want to make your way to Eureka!, one of the hundreds of delicious food vendors at the festival this year. While Eureka! is a burger joint at first glance, they will make you a challenge-friendly off-menu item called Fried Mac and Beer Cheese Balls if you request it specifically. Mac numero dos — check. Once you’ve polished off your edible Mac, you’ll want to race over to Sahara Stage at 7:15 p.m. to ensure you catch Mac Miller’s must-see set, which re-airs on channel 3 of the live stream.

You’re going to be exhausted after the Triple Mac, so focus on getting to the main stage well in advance of Radiohead’s headlining set at 10:35 p.m. The monumental set from the British rockers will tie a knot on what was an adventure of a first day, and there’s no better nightcap than an Indica such as Hardcookies from West Coast Cure, a high-octane blend of Girl Scout Cookies and WCC’s famous Hardcore OG. The cured Hardcookies joint should assist in any insomnia-related issues with ease, so we’ll just reconvene tomorrow for Saturday’s Smoking Guide.
