tried flowers and wax, both are great
its a heavy hitter, if you wanna have a heavy hitter - get it!
its a hybrid but leans on to sativa cause I felt uplifting and euphoric. Yeah it gives relaxation but it didnt make me sleepy. HIghly enjoyable effects!
i was curious and decided to try this mj with such a scary name lol. So, - taste is fruity, herbal, lemon (SB is rich in limonene); - I felt active and euphoric but giggly (may be strong because of 22-14%); - no side effects to mention. Highly recommende
worked great for my muscle spasms but caused nausea
holy crap, ill never try it again. Not a hint of euphoria or happiness. I was dizzy and my eyelids were super heavy. I had to lay down and wait till its over. Def not my type
