Pretty solid. I have trouble keeping my eyes open with this stuff. Good looks, burn, potency.
El Niño strain
El Niño effects are mostly calming.
El Niño potency is higher THC than average.
Greenhouse Seed Company released El Niño in 1998 and it subsequently won that year’s High Times Cannabis Cup in the bioplant category. This strain comes from Haze, Super Skunk, Brazilian, and Indian genetics to create an indica-dominant hybrid. While the El Niño weather phenomenon brings high winds, this strain bearing the same name brings on the irresistible desire to catch a few “z’s.” Plants will stay short or medium height and its flowers won’t be exceptionally large, but they should have plenty of crystals throughout. These plants really prefer the indoors or the tropics where they flower in 8 to 9 weeks.

El Niño strain reviews(32)
Taste ~ 10/10 super sweet and earthy El Niño gave us a really happy mix of a head/body high, pretty relaxed, pretty giggly. Also got some munchies. Good strain to keep doing activities or throughout the day.
Fuzzy, fun and relaxing high. First hit hits you like a truck and it's all good highness from there.
So good man
Very dense buds, immediately after I take a puff I feel a lazy sort of sensation creeping around my eyes. Very relaxing strain! Its a hard body high with a clear headed cerebral effect. Would recommend for an evening toke!
its a great old school strain. earthy herb'y flavor & smell. grows short & stocky with big dense nugs that are rock hard. great yield- indoor organic hydro & soil and outdoor organic soil. great during the afternoon or smoke a few more to go to sleep. good pain relief & gets you high and stoned.
This is the first and only strain out of many that I've tried that actually helps me fall asleep. It isn't the strongest when it comes to a "high," but if you have issues falling asleep and the more popular Grandaddy Purple or Lemon OG aren't doing it for you, then El Niño is definitely worth looking into. Not a favorite strain, but a useful one. Has an earthy smell with hints of mango. Taste-wise, it's a bit spicy. Downsides are a possible headache if taken in large amounts, and the usual dry mouth and occasionally dry eyes. I experienced no paranoia or anxiety. The El Niño I received was grown outdoors.
Underrated....
Very similar to any normal mango scent, but what really differentiates this strain is how potent and scratchy the smoke is compared to the sweet and easy to taste of regular mango kush. As an everyday smoker i was excited to taste such a difference when the smell of the bud was so sweet. The high was much longer and i slept like a baby even after the 3rd gram smoking it.
Deffiantly not a sleeper... One medium bong rip got me zoned out & feeling like I have to double think everything. Spaced out. I could totally see this being an end cap toke. Blahblahblahjibbajabbinwastingyourtime2ndhitfuckedmynight..
