Breeders and cannabis connoisseurs keep coming up with new strains. Also, because they name them after so many different things, it is not surprising to see one named after a watermelon. So far, what we know is that this 80% Indica strain delivers a host of beautiful effects on users.

The Watermelon strain is a super juicy and delicious strain that is reminiscent of watermelon, fresh berries, and candy. It’s bursting with flavor, and is just one of the reasons Watermelon is such a hit. This strain also simultaneously offers relief from stress, fatigue, and chronic pain, so it’s perfect for those suffering from muscle conditions, arthritis, or mood disorders alike.

To be honest, we do not know where this marijuana hybrid came from nor who the breeder was. In fact, we do not even know its genetic lineage. About the only thing that we know is that it is mostly an Indica strain and that it delivers a heavy body high.

Watermelon strain Effects

For a moment, let us take THC content into consideration. Once it reaches 20%, then we know a strain is potent. So, in the case of the Watermelon strain, users should understand their limits. As for new users, or those who are using marijuana for the first time, better use this one with caution.

Watermelon, with only 20% Sativa side, may not look promising in as far as delivering a mental high. But that is far from the truth. Soon after users begin using this pot, it starts to induce a sensation of happiness. Also, a lot of people who used this strain reported feeling euphoric. If an experienced user did not know any better, they would think that the strain has a larger Sativa side.

After a brief moment, the mental buzz creeps down to the body. Like most Indica strains, users tend to feel their muscles relaxing. Some potent strains may deliver waves upon waves of an intense body high. But that is not how the Watermelon works. Instead, it continues to intensify without users realizing it.

Due to its sedative-like properties, we know it has incredible benefits for medical cannabis users. On that, we will cover in another section.

At the peak of the body high, some users are likely to feel a little lazy. Even so, and this is the beautiful part about using Watermelon strain, the users can fight off the effects if there is something that needs to be done. As such, it can be used during daytime, but only if users can control themselves and avoid overindulging.

Fragrance

One thing is for sure. Watermelon strain comes with a scent that most people will find appealing. By now, it is evident why the strain is named after a fruit. It comes with the sweet smell of watermelon mixed with the traditional kush odor.

Flavors

As one might expect, the watermelon scent should carry over to its taste, right? But that is not the case, as the strain has a more grape or berry like flavor.

Adverse Reaction

So, understanding that the strain is potent, it means that it is best to use it in small amounts. Anyone over using, deliberately or due to underestimating it deserves to have a watermelon dropped on their heads. In fact, that is how some people feel while using it. According to a few users, they experienced a mild headache.

Other than that, the other adverse reaction that is likely to happen as a result of using too much is experiencing dry mouth and eyes. Of course, this is pretty much the case with the use of any marijuana strain.

Finally, one last thing that is good to know is that there are instances when users may feel paranoid. It does not happen often, but if it does, try another strain next time.

THC Content – Highest Test

We have seen a wide array of results for Watermelon cannabis’ THC content. The average THC content ranges from 11 to 17% but can top out at 20%. We have heard unsubstantiated stories which claim certain cuts have a THC level of 29%.

CBD Content – Highest Test

Some cuts of Watermelon have a CBD level of 1%.

What Can I Expect When I Use Watermelon Weed?

Watermelon is a popular recreational marijuana option because of its uplifting yet relaxing effects. If you are feeling a bit listless and down, a few tokes of Watermelon could improve your mood and even give you a feeling of euphoria for a short time. Once you have experienced the cerebral high, this strain makes its way through the body and helps alleviate mental and physical stress.

At the beginning of the high, you may experience fits of laughter for no particular reason, as you understand what joy really feels like. As the high expands, it helps soothe your body, and you may feel a sudden urge to lie down. If you consume a lot of Watermelon, there is a decent chance you’ll slowly drift off to sleep, far away from a world of worries. As such, we recommend using this strain in the late evening to de-stress.

Watermelon Medical Benefits

Strain Cannabinoids

• THC: 21 – 23%
• CBD: 0.04 – 0.63%

• CBN: 0.08 – 0.24%
• THCV: 0.4 – 1.15%

Its ability to calm the muscles and induce a complete body relaxation is one reason why it is great for stress relief. Not to mention, the mental high it delivers influences happiness. As such, any strain that can reduce stress is likely to be beneficial to mental health issues such as depression.

Because this is a heavy hitting Indica-dominant strain, and due to its sedative-like property, most users do feel sleepy afterward. For that reason, it can help patients suffering from serious illnesses sleep better. Even for people who are suffering from pains or aches in their bodies, Watermelon strain can help with that too.

If you are suffering from stress or chronic fatigue, Watermelon could be the tonic you need. Use it an hour or two before bedtime if you have insomnia, and get ready for sleep to take hold. One of the reasons why it is so effective for insomniacs is because it helps you set aside the mental worries that keep you awake.

Watermelon is potent enough to serve as a worthy analgesic. It could be effective if you have chronic pain due to a condition such as arthritis, migraine, or backache. This strain helps numb the pain you feel and give you a much-needed mental break. It has been linked with a reduction in vomiting and nausea, which means it is potentially useful for patients undergoing treatments that affect appetite.

This strain helps numb the pain you feel and give you a much-needed mental break.

If you feel your stomach rumbling as the high wears off, don’t worry! Getting a case of the munchies is normal. If you have issues with your appetite, Watermelon could help you look forward to mealtimes. Finally, as it can improve your mood, you might use this strain to alleviate symptoms of anxiety or depression.

One thing about using this strain is that it causes users to feel hungry. Not all, but most people have a case of the munchies as its effects fade. It takes a little bit of an effort, but users can get up to get food to satisfy their hunger pang.

Watermelon Grow Information

• Flowering time: 70-80 Days
• Harvest time: 88-95 Days
• Yield indoor: < 1 oz/ft2
• Yield outdoor: 1-2 oz/ft2
• Height indoor: 60-80 Inches
• Height outdoor: 90 > Inches
• Grow difficulty: Difficult
• Flowering type: Photoperiod

We have no information on the availability of seeds. So, at this time, we have to assume that it is clone-only. From how it looks and as far as we have gathered, the plant grows in outdoor and indoor. As always, we recommend using hydroponics indoor to have complete control over its growth.

Flowering Time

Indoors

Being an Indica-dominant hybrid, we estimate its flowering time to be at 8 to 9 weeks. A safe assumption on its yield per square meter is around 12 to 16 ounces.

Outdoors

Watermelon strain is likely ready for harvest during the first week of October. Of course, it could be a week earlier. At any rate, each plant should yield around 16 ounces.

Have you ever smoked or grown your own Watermelon Kush? Please let me know what you think about this marijuana strain in the comments below.

Take a trip back to 1964 and go on an adventure with Willy Wonka, a famous character in Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator. Of course, that is not possible but what is, is the strain.

The original breeder of Willy Wonka is not known. While there is an offspring of Sweet Tooth and Willie Nelson, that is not the same variant as our featured strain in this article. Instead, the credit of this version goes to Mr. Natural, an outfit based in Spain. The breeder used Chocolate Trip and Cinderella 99 to develop Willy Wonka.

Chocolate Trip is a Sativa-dominant strain. While it does come with powerful mental effects, it still delivers an intense physical high without the sedation. Cinderella 99 or Cindy, on the other hand, is more known for its spacey euphoric cerebral effects.

By combining the genetics of both Chocolate Trip and Cinderella 99, the result is a Sativa-dominant creeper that induces intense psychoactive effects. It also inherited the same Indica traits of Chocolate Trip, in which users can relax on a wave of relaxation while taking a cerebral journey.

Willy Wonka is also not just any ordinary strain. In fact, it took honors in the Denver leg of the 2014 High Times Cannabis Cup. With that, its appeal to the users has increased. However, the strain has remained elusive in the sense that it is not widely available.

Willy Wonka Effects

Willy Wonka can be a creeper in that it may take minutes before its effects are felt by the users. Be careful not to underestimate it too. Possessing as much as 24% THC, this hybrid can bring it on, and when it does, it can be overwhelming.

Once it kicks into the mind and the body, it begins with an intense and buzzing euphoric high. Users are likely to experience mental clarity, perhaps too much as to have slight visual and color distortions. At this point, they also become ultra-sensitive such as sounds and noises in the surrounding seem amplified.

Used in moderation, users remain productive, and they can certainly benefit from a sharper focus. Not to mention, the invigorating rush that keeps them hyperactive and motivated. There is also a tendency to feel talkative too.

Soon, a tingling sensation ebbs down to the body. As a sense of relaxation takes over the body, users continue to be functional. It also is the reason why the near-psychedelic experience does not further intensify.

• Use Time: Morning
• Effects: Sedated, Euphoric, Uplifted, Talkative, Relaxed
• Side Effects: Panic attacks, Insomnia, Drowsiness
• Common Usage: Anxiety, Arthritis, Parkinson’s, Pain, Insomnia
• Terpenes: Limonene, Nerolidol, Valencene
• Taste: Coffee, Menthol, Spicy/Herbal, Tar, Tropical
• Color: Green

Fragrance

Willy Wonka is not only a pleasure to use. As a prelude to the magical experience, it takes recreational users on, it comes with an enticing sweet and earthy aroma with a hint of vanilla. It is not overpowering. Instead, users would describe the scent as refreshing.

Flavors

Much of how the strain smells carry over to its taste. Accompanying the smoke during exhalation is a woody tone and a lingering minty aftertaste. In some ways, it helps make the smoke feel cool and easy on the throat.

Adverse Reaction

Using Willy Wonka is almost guaranteed to make one feel dry mouth as well as have red eyes. Of course, that is not surprising at all because using any cannabis strain do induce these conditions.

However, many of its users also report having a mild headache. It is also possible for some to experience dizziness. In most cases, these conditions are manageable.

While Willy Wonka is an excellent wake-and-bake strain, use it moderately so that any adverse reactions will be mild and negligible. Otherwise, they can be quite uncomfortable. Not to worry though, they do not cause long-term harm.

Willy Wonka Medical Uses

Strain Cannabinoids

• THC: 23 – 28%
• CBD: 0.1 – 1.26%
• CBC: 0.17 – 0.6%
• CBG: 0.48 – 1.03%
• CBN: 0.07 – 0.3%
• THCV: 0.36 – 0.6%

Willy Wonka is a sativa-dominant cross between Sweet Tooth and Willie Nelson. It produces short plants despite its sativa heritage. Willy Wonka has an average flowering time between 56 and 60 days and is known to produce medium yields in ideal conditions. The strain is supposedly easy to grow indoors or out.

When it comes to treatment of seizures, epilepsy, tremors, and other illnesses that respond to CBD, Willy Wonka cannot do much. But its psychoactive properties do bring comfort to other conditions.

Willy Wonka can have several uses for medical cannabis patients as well. Its clear-minded lucidity can be a boon to those with attention deficit disorders, greatly improving focus. Its ability to elevate mood can also temporarily relieve the troubling symptoms of stress, depression, and anxiety. Because its physical effects are more subtle, Willy Wonka can be great for mild irritations like headaches or nausea but may not work as well in soothing chronic, nerve-related pain. Because its initial are energetic without being overly cerebral, this strain can be a great choice for those who are prone to panic.

In uplifting the mood to uncharted territories with the buzzing euphoric high, the strain squashes stress like bugs. People with depression and similar illness or issues can benefit from the comfort it provides.

Other uses of Willy Wonka among the medical cannabis community is in dealing with fatigue. Much like caffeine, the strain can provide a boost in energy. Even when the smaller Indica side exerts its influence on the body, most people should have no trouble running around.

An agreeable, low-key sativa hybrid, Willy Wonka is versatile enough for use alone or with a large group of friends. For a full Charlie and the Chocolate Factory-themed smoke session, pair this strain with the more balanced Golden Ticket.

Willy Wonka Growing

• Flowering time: 47-65 Days
• Harvest time: 71-78 Days
• Yield indoor: 1-2 oz/ft2
• Yield outdoor: 2-4 oz/ft2
• Height indoor: 60-80 Inches
• Height outdoor: 90 > Inches
• Grow difficulty: Easy
• Flowering type: Photoperiod

There is not a lot of information available on cultivating Willy Wonka. We do know that it can thrive in indoor and outdoor environments. As for getting its seeds, that can be difficult. Mr. Natural appears to sell its seeds occasionally but only in Spain. Getting it from another country can prove to be a challenge.

To induce purple streaks on its leaves and flowers, growers will want to expose the plant to cooler temperature before flowering time.

Mr. Natural has made seeds of Willy Wonka available online, but the company only ships orders within Spain; prospective growers elsewhere will need to obtain clippings from healthy plants of the strain in order to grow genetically identical “clones.” Willy Wonka can be grown indoors or out, although successful outdoor cultivation calls for a semi-humid climate with daytime temperatures between 72 and 80 degree Fahrenheit. Those looking to bring out the leaves’ eye-catching purple streaks should briefly expose their crops to nighttime temperatures at least ten to fifteen degrees colder than average. Willy Wonka flowers within 8 weeks when grown indoors and is ready for harvest in early October when grown outdoors. It’s also known to be a high yielder.

Flowering Time

• Indoors

The flowering time of Willy Wonka indoors is eight weeks. Presumably, under 600 watts of lighting, growers can expect up to 12 ounces of buds per square meter.

• Outdoors

Growers can expect the plant to start flowering in the first week of October. Each plant is likely to produce more than 12 ounces of buds.

Unfortunately, the Wedding Cake strain doesn’t really taste like a wedding cake, but rather earthy and sour. Only towards the end do you get a slight hint of sugary sweetness. But despite its deceiving name, the Wedding Cake strain is super potent, with THC levels around 27%.

Wedding Cake strain is, perhaps, one of the most potent marijuana strains in the market today. Consistently, it tests beyond the 20% level and borders on the 30%. No doubt, it is a thrill seeker’s strain. Beginners may find its level of potency to be too intense and overwhelming. This is not to say that one should totally avoid the Indica-leaning bud. Rather, that moderation must be practiced at all times.

With that said, bells ring as Wedding Cake’s onset begins. It is usually quick to take effect, blanketing the mind with a rush of euphoria. After hours, it settles into the limbs; kneading it like a masseuse. Depending on the dosage, the comedown could be sedating.

The batter from Girl Scout Cookies was used to develop Wedding Cake. From it, the strain gained its creative and mind-bending cerebral buzz as well as its undertones of violet. Its other qualities, on the other hand, are from Cherry Pie which is renowned for its flavorful buds and long-lasting high.

Wedding Cake strain Effects

Wedding Cake induces a euphoric head high that clears the mind after it settles. It improves the mood too, leaving users in a happy place as it ushers away worries and problems.

Its comedown is deeply relaxing. Starting off at the temples, a light pressure makes its way down to the rest of the body. It kneads each muscle free of tension and removes tightness around the limbs. In this way, users can move like a well-oiled machine; improving efficiency in completing tasks.

One thing to remember though is that it each bud contains at least 25% THC and could go beyond. Using more than one’s personal tolerance could lead to an overwhelming head high that stuns users into a couch lock. As such, moderation is essential in enjoying Wedding Cake as a strain.

Fragrance

Wedding Cake’s sweetness is apparent at the first whiff. It exudes a powerful vanilla scent with hints of earth and pepper enhancing the overall aroma.

Flavors

There is a subtle pepper spiciness that introduces itself upon consumption. It dissipates quickly though as an earthier undertone takes over. Swirling the smoke inside the mouth brings out its vanilla flavors. On the exhale, it leaves a sweet aftertaste.

Adverse Reactions

With Wedding Cake, one can expect the typical dry eyes and cottonmouth caused by moisture-inhibiting cannabinoids. It is mild and, as a result, is often ignored by seasoned users. Beginners who feel the discomfort, on the other hand, may manage the arid spell by staying hydrated.

Apart from that, it is also possible for users to green out from Wedding Cake’s sheer potency. This condition is characterized by a subtle dizziness that could develop into anxiety or a subtle feeling of paranoia as one becomes keenly aware. Thankfully, the side effect can be avoided through pacing and moderation.

THC Content – Highest Test

Users of Wedding Cake know it is a heavy hitter. Lab results have revealed versions of this strain with a THC content of 27%! We have written before about how a strain’s THC content doesn’t necessarily provide the high you expect.

However, Wedding Cake is every bit as potent as its lab report suggests; arguably more so! We DO NOT recommend this strain if you are a weed-smoking novice. It can send you into dreamland before you know what is happening!

CBD Content – Highest Test

Wedding Cake seldom has more than 0.23% CBD and usually has approximately 0.1%. As a result, it commonly has a THC: CBD ratio of around 250:1. However, it also has high levels of the terpene, beta-caryophyllene, which creates a similar response to high-CBD strains like Harlequin. As the terpene hits the same CB2 receptors, Wedding Cake is an excellent medicinal strain.

Wedding Cake Medical

Wedding Cake is, no doubt, an impressive recreational strain. Its THC levels induce a powerful cerebral and body high that uplift users and relax the body. However, the presence of its psychoactive compounds and its subsequent effects also have significant therapeutic value.

For one, its happy high doubles as a source of comfort to the chronically stressed and the psychologically distressed. It enhances the mood, eliminates worries, and temporarily pushes back problems in place of a calmer disposition. Simultaneously, it also stabilizes emotions which assists in managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

It has potent analgesic properties that release users from pains and aches induced by certain health conditions such as arthritis, joint pains, migraines and headaches. Its soothing body buzz kneads the muscles free of tension too. And, as a result, it is also effective against cramps and gastrointestinal contractions.

Another strain that helps with a number of common pains, Hindu Kush is a fragrant and pleasant pure breed that is also an effective tranquilizer.

As a natural alternative to opioid-based medicine, it rarely comes with negative side effects such as nausea. On the contrary, it appeases the stomach and would even stimulate the appetite. Patients with eating disorders such as anorexia could gain back the weight, especially under the guidance of a health professional.

Its sedating buzz eventually takes over and instills a deep drowsiness that, in all likelihood, will lull one to bed. As such, users with insomnia may find a reprieve in the strain. Not only that, it also enhances the quality and quantity of sleep.

Growing

Wedding Cake has an Indica-leaning growth profile. It is short and sturdy, allowing growers to cultivate it in various environments. And, at harvest, it produces dense buds that look close to solid. It carries a little bit of weight when placed in the palm of one’s hand. As for its colors, it generally produces a forest green hue that grows darker as it develops a purple undertone.

There is little to no deviation with regard feeding, nutrition, and the usual growing practices. Seasoned growers, however, may use advanced growing techniques like the Sea of Green. This method takes advantage of Wedding Cake’s stoutness and maximizes small growing spaces by sowing at least four seeds in a single square meter then coaxing a single bud as it grows. It shortens the vegetative phase without sacrificing yields.

Pruning is essential when cultivating Wedding Cake. It has dense foliage that grows thicker as more leaves and buds to sprout. Moisture could stick to its crevices and then developing into mold or mildew. Leaving it alone, on the other hand, may lead to worse problems such as bud and root rot. A proficient ventilation system will also aid air circulation in the growing area.

Flowering Time

Indoor Yield

The hefty yielder matures around the ninth week of flowering. But, depending on the conditions, it could flower as early as 7 to 8 weeks. Once ready for harvest, growers can expect between 18 to 21 ounces of buds per square meter.

Outdoor Yield

Wedding Cake blossoms around the second or third week of October, but some growers may begin to see fully mature flowers around the last few days of September. At harvest, one could harvest at least 21 ounces of buds per plant.

Wedding Cake is an intense strain that can help to temporarily alleviate pain, anxiety, and depression. It has an extremely high THC level, and it ‘feels’ like you have just dabbed a concentrate! Although it is a relaxing smoke, it is not for the beginner or individuals with a low weed tolerance.

Some versions of Wedding Cake have a slightly higher CBD content and lower THC level. This may reduce the risk of experiencing side effects. After using it, your mind will feel invigorated, and you may break out into an uncontrollable fit of giggles. Eventually, your body will feel relaxed, and you may slip into a peaceful sleep.

White Cookies was bred by Canadian seed bank Crop King Seeds by crossing White Widow with GSC (also known as Girl Scout Cookies). The seed bank lists the strain at 19.25% THC and 0.75% CBD.

According to Crop King Seeds, the strain has a slightly indica-leaning lineage and Dutch origins. It reportedly grows tall with physical traits of both its mother and father, and produces high yields ranging from 200 to 400 grams, or 7 to 14 ounces, over a 63-day flowering period. Moderately easy to grow either indoors or outdoors, White Cookies delivers relaxed, euphoric, and body-centric effects, according to Crop King Seeds. According to the seed bank, this strain is also used medically to boost moods and treat pain, loss of appetite, and nausea.

 There are a lot of marijuana producers who are trying to separate their cookie strain from the competition. As a result, brands are starting to cross it with exotic strains in an effort to stand out in the cannabis industry. White Cookies is one such strain.

It’s a genetic combination of White Widow and Girl Scout Cookies strains, which makes for a wonderful concoction. Currently, many believe it to be one of the best strains on the market.

What Is the White Cookies Strain?

White Cookies is an indica-dominant hybrid strain of marijuana. It’s a cross between White Widow and Girl Scout Cookies that was originally bred by the Canadian seed bank, Crop King Seeds. The idea was to combine the best of a classic strain with the best of a popular favorite. The White Cookies strain is 60% indica and 40% sativa. The seed bank lists the strain as containing 19.25% THC and 0.75% CBD.

Featuring a very strong and potent THC level, White Cookies weed is best to be enjoyed by experienced users. Beginners and users with a low tolerance should be cautious of the dose they use to avoid couch-lock. Although White Cookies is an indica strain, the THC content is more in line with a sativa-dominant strain, so it offers users the best of both worlds.

You can expect this strain to give you an uplifting euphoria that relaxes the body, enhances the mood, and relieves pain. A combination of both its parent strains, White Cookies, begins with a head rush of a high that’s both euphoric and relaxing.

Many users find themselves becoming more social and giggly after taking a hit, with all their worrisome thoughts being completely erased. White Cookies definitely makes users feel stoned and will leave you feeling relaxed.

Due to its well-balanced high, White Cookies is good for day and evening use. Something important to note is that some users experience extreme munchies after smoking White Cookies. So keep some snacks close by and in large quantities.

This strain is not easy to find in dispensaries, so when you get your hands on it, be sure to stock up. The taste and effect are so good that it may even be worth growing your own.

Aroma

White Cookies has an earthy scent, along with a pungent, nutty lemony aroma. It’s described as being a rather complex yet satisfying aroma, with top notes of pepper and herbs, moving down to a full body of chocolate, and lastly, dank and earthy base notes.

Flavor

The White Cookies strain has a sweet vanilla flavor and features a hint of minty chocolate. It also packs a tantalizing hint of peppery spice, which works wonderfully at cutting through its sweeter leanings.

For the most part, the taste is like the lovely Girl Scout Cookies flavor – full of chocolate, mint, vanilla, as well as rich buttery hints.

Appearance

A lot of people would assume that White Cookies would look white because of a dense covering of trichomes, but this is only half true. Although the calyxes of the strain are lightened with trichomes, White Cookies also has a multitude of fiery orange pistils that give it a vivid color.

The nugs of White Cookie are typically a minty green color with the yellowish-orange accents from the trichomes. Buds are small to medium-sized and feature layers of trichomes, which gives it a white appearance.

White Cookies Strain Grow Info

White Cookies is a relatively moderate strain for home growing. It has a short flowering period of only 9 to 10 weeks and brings about decent yields of between 200 to 400 grams, depending on the conditions. It’s an option that’s great for either indoor or outdoor cultivation and features plants that get to the one-meter tall mark. That said, it flourishes when grown indoors.

According to Crop King Seeds, the strain has a slightly indica-leaning lineage and Dutch origins. It reportedly grows tall with physical traits of both its mother and father, and produces high yields ranging from 200 to 400 grams, or 7 to 14 ounces, over a 63-day flowering period. Moderately easy to grow either indoors or outdoors, White Cookies delivers relaxed, euphoric, and body-centric effects, according to Crop King Seeds. According to the seed bank, this strain is also used medically to boost moods and treat pain, loss of appetite, and nausea.

White Cookies has an outdoor harvest time of mid/end September, which makes it a feasible choice for outdoor growers in a lot of Europe. Especially since this strain thrives in pretty much any temperature, except very extreme ones – as long as the plant gets enough light.

Growers will be impressed by the decent yield and the cooperative nature of this strain. The plant demonstrates characteristics of both sativas and indicas genetics. White Cookies is one of the highest yielding strains for recreational growers.

If you like the sound of this strain, White Cookie seeds are fairly easy to access. These feminized seeds typically result in fat, delicious buds that can be smoked up for happy feelings or a simple body high. It’s one of the easier strains to grow; so if you can’t find it in-store, you might want to try growing this strain yourself.

THC Content – Highest Test

The White Cookie strain has an average THC content of about 19%. Given the THC level, you would be forgiven for thinking that it’s a sativa-dominant strain. Indeed, the initial effect is very much in line with an old-school sativa, featuring a quick blast of pain relief followed by a buzzy and bright cerebral high, which can help to lift even the lowest moods.

However, it’s an indica strain at heart and provides that incredible total-body relaxation that’s associated with the best indicas.

CBD Content – Highest Test

White Cookie marijuana has very low CBD content. It’s not believed to exceed 0.75%. Despite the low CBD levels, the strain still offers various medical benefits that make it popular among medicinal marijuana users.

Medical Benefits of the White Cookies Strain

Since it’s a nicely blended hybrid that affects both the mind and the body, White Cookies is especially loved by medicinal users. Although it’s not on the extreme end of potency, it’s strong enough to melt away stress and depression, and can even soothe nausea and help to relieve pain.

Due to the ability of White Cookies to greatly increase the appetite, people who struggle with this aspect of their daily lives often find a lot of relief thanks to this strain.

Reviewers report that White Cookies helped to enhance their mood while relieving the symptoms of chronic stress and pain. Some say that the strain could make the mind a little foggy, but in a rather pleasant way that helps to eliminate negative or racing thoughts.

Possible Side Effects of the White Cookies Strain

We couldn’t find any reported side effects associated with the White Cookies strain. However, it’s important to note that side effects are always a possibility, and some users may be more prone to these effects than others.

Due to the high THC levels of these strains, here are a few of the possible side effects:

• Increased heart rate
• Dry mouth
• Hallucinations
• Paranoia
• Slower reactions times
• Short-term memory loss

Final Thoughts on White Cookies Strain

“Good things come to those who wait”… Right? Or so the saying goes. Unfortunately, the White Cookies strain isn’t widely accessible, which means that some marijuana enthusiasts may have to be patient in their search for this strain. Alternatively, you could grow your own strain – fairly easily, might we add.

White Cookies is worth the effort. Packing a healthy 19% THC level on average, this hybrid offers up a euphoric and relaxing high. White Cookies is a fantastic appetite-stimulant and also tends to leave users feeling pleasantly sleepy, making it good for insomnia. It’s also a popular choice for relieving pain, stress, nausea, and depression.

Enjoy this strain with a side of cookies – sit back, relax, and bask in the euphoric effects.

If there is anything else that can make a potent strain even better, it has to be a great combination of flavors and aroma. Apparently, a fragrant and tasty weed makes every pot session even more enjoyable. Simply put, these traits are what spices up a strain’s overall stone.

Any experienced cannabis user knows that one of the most sought after weed flavors in the market are those with a fruity twist. By fruity, this means that the flavors can range from tangerine, berry, mango and practically almost anything that reminds one of a particular fruit.

As a result, most breeders highlight this particular characteristic when naming their creations to gain more attention from users who would love a fruity hint when smoking their weed. So, just imagine having to smoke a type of marijuana that does not only put you in a pleasant mood but engulfs you with some fruit-flavored smoke at the same time. Surely, the experience is next to none.

That is exactly what the White Berry strain offers. Being a moderately potent strain, its widely recognized fruity flavor is the cherry on top–or to be more precise, the berry on top. Check out the following information below to know more about White Berry’s whole profile.

White Berry’s place of origin is in Netherlands. The original breeder of White Berry has kept the information about its real genetic origin to themselves which kept everyone else in the cannabis community guessing about its true lineage. Nonetheless, the most common theory involves DJ Short’s Blueberry and the infamous White Widow strain.

White Berry has first entered the cannabis markets in 2007 and has, since then, been referred to as Berry White or Blue Widow. It has also been recognized as one of the Top 10 strains by the High Times magazine.

What Is the Berry White Strain?
