I'll start with a disclaimer that I much prefer indica strains to begin with, and my experience with sativa is hit or miss, but I actually don't like this strain very much. The flavor is nice, with surprising citrus fruit notes, and I find the high very appropriate for getting going in the morning: energetic and it puts your mind to the task. My main 2 problems with this strain could very well be related to a low tolerance vs. the high THC in Cindy, but: 1 - the high can actually push into anxiety territory, which for me is very counterproductive. I couldn't find a dosage that worked for me, it was either too much or not enough. 2 - coming down from this high sends me crashing back to Earth, HARD, every time. I get a headache for hours once the high falls off a cliff, no matter how much water I drink. So, ironically, Cindy is good to get up and going, but for me, it actually put me out of commission later on in the day. It hasn't been terrible, but I don't think I would buy this strain again. Whether it's too strong for me or not, it just wasn't a good fit!

From someone with chronic sleep issues, this strain is the only thing I've ever tried in my life that puts me to sleep, keeps me out, and allows me to wake up without any adverse effects. It's going to slow you down, with a body high as huge as the head high, it just sort of puts you in a "blanket". I've never tried GDP during the day, but I can't imagine it's useful beyond forcing a nap if you need to - it's that good. Definitely a night time strain, don't expect to be the life of the party... unless the party is in your head and doesn't require you to move or have in-depth conversations with people! GDP tastes very sweet, big grape and berry flavors consistently. I have heard Black Mamba is similar, but with more intense body effects, and allegedly BETTER for sleep than GDP. I look forward to finding out for myself!

So I'm still a rookie with cannabis (Rec dispensaries just starting to open here), but I've tried a handful of strains, and Sour D has been a revelation for me. I still prefer the body high from indica to help with sleep, but Sour D is a SUPER versatile strain. I describe the high as "putting your brain in a different level", if that makes any sense. If you're feeling energetic, Sour D will help you put your mind to getting stuff done. If you want to take a nap, Sour D helps put your brain at that dream level right away. There is no body high to speak of, so no matter how "in the clouds" your thoughts might get, it won't slow you down... unless you want it to - that sort of thing. Also, I know reviews are subjective, and I do not suffer from serious migraines or anything like that, but in my experience Sour D ERASES headaches. I would recommend it for that as well as any head cold or illness where a headache might be a symptom. Sour D is also tremendous in the morning with a cup of coffee, but it's so versatile that it can be used at night too. I love the taste too. I have been vaping this stuff - First hit tastes almost entirely like lemon, then after that I seem to get mostly the diesel. Literally perfectly named strain for its taste!
