Somari

This is the perfect strain to fight insomnia, stress, and mood disorders. It’s rich in terpenes, and it tastes sweet. Beginners shouldn’t get carried away by the sweet taste, since Somari weed has over 18% of THC in its composition. With overconsumption, it may trigger paranoia. It’s the type of weed that a seasoned user would prefer for solitary evenings.

What is the history of Somari?

2013, Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam (the Oscars of weed). Soma’s Sacred Seeds wins the 1st place in the hybrid category with the SomaRi hybrid. The company was already famous after winning prizes from 1999 to 2004 every year. They combined their NYC Diesel, their Buddha’s Sister (both award-winning strains) with the popular Kushadelic. The result was a bud with 70% Indica and 30% Sativa, with a potent THC level of 18% above the average, but a low CBD level. Ever since then, this powerhouse of THC remained rare and elusive, is pretty hard to find.

Effects

The best part of this hybrid is the high (isn’t it always?). The feeling you get after smoking the weed is exactly what I’m looking for as an experienced smoker. The high creeps on you pretty fast. At first, you’ll feel a cerebral rush. Everything comes alive in your mind: happiness and focus in particular. You’ll become active and even talkative if you’re not alone. After the initial rush, your focus will slowly fade away. The Somari high is long-lasting and lazy. The high percentage of THC will make you feel like you become one with the couch. After that, you’ll be inclined towards reflection and introspection. Some users report vivid psychedelic experiences, even visions.

Is it good for medical use?

In terms of medical effects, for experienced users, it is a great stress and pain reliever. Somari is good for chronic pain, appetite loss, and inflammation. In the middle of the high, you’ll feel like there’s no worry in the entire world. When I was experimenting with the full effect of the weed, I honestly felt like I was floating.

What are the negative effects?

I would not recommend this particular strain to inexperienced users. The high THC content and the psychedelic tendencies of Somari strain makes it less suitable for inexperienced users. Casual smokers might experiment side effects like anxiety when trying this hybrid. The problem with really strong cannabis is that the sensation it offers might be overwhelming for people who are not used to the high. And once you’re overwhelmed it’s very easy for anxiety to creep in. So, the safe bet is to smoke Somari when you’re familiar with weed.

What are the reasons for choosing this kush?

To be honest, at first, I tried this strain because I’ve heard so much about it. It’s pedigree alone made me buy an ounce. But for me, someone who smokes daily for some years now, it’s the best possible choice. First and foremost, the THC level makes it suitable for regular smokers. Having 20% more THC than the average weed strain makes it a sure bet for everyone looking to get high. Another attractive part of the Somari is the high.

If Somari pot looks like Buddha’s Sister, it tastes and smells like the New York Diesel and gets you high like the Kushadelic. The dominant smell is that of citrus with a dash of diesel. After you lit the joint on fire, a strong scent of grapefruit will fill the room. The taste is the same: grapefruit.
