A bud perfect for day time use. It keeps you functional and has an amazing body buzz. I smoked it with my friends and we had the best conversation for hours on end without feeling sleepy or lazy. Cotton Candy is a good strain for daytime pain relief when I am experiencing cramps. No side effects at all!
I don’t understand why Allbud has listed this strain as being cerebral. It makes me sleep all day!
I always have this strain saved for the rainy day. It delivers a good and clear-headed high.
Dynamite dope! Smells and looks good and is quite tasty.
this bud is amazing! The effects kick in fast but smoothly.
my second time trying Cotton candy, it hits me with a good head high.
this weed is perfect for when you want to remain chill on a bad day.
Cotton candy delivers as its supposed to but I don’t like the taste!
I love this strain.
Really love this mj. It has the cotton candy taste that I like. It got me relaxed but not sleepy so I don’t understand why Banice says it made her sleep! It has a strong Sativa boost but one that is calming with no anxiety and overstimulation. I love it.
This flower is a creeper sleeper. I rolled a joint yesterday and I only enjoyed half of it as I was already feeling high and happy. However, about half an hour later I fell into a deep sleep. It is perfect for anxiety and depression.
Glorious strains with a nice taste.
Super dank, you will fall in love!
A great strain for all day use.
