This is my all-time-favorite strain, and it's earned its spot as my Swiss Army Knife in bud form. Anxiety issues? Need to recreate? Having trouble focusing? Insomnia keeping you up? Low/no appetite? Yep, yep, yep, yep, and yep: all boxes checked & then some. This fits the bill as medicine & recreation, for me, and it does it well. When I'm having issues and need a small window of effect, I choose Vortex. When the long work day is over and I need to unwind, Vortex is one of the top choices. It's very, very flexible. But there's a caveat: Vortex has two stages: 1) Mild stony effect, plenty of clarity. 30 minute 'high' 2) Heavy stony effect that's near a pleasant catatonia. Generates a ton of creativity and the bad mood is gone completely. 3 hour window of a potentially disorienting high. If you I smoke a several small small bowls through the course of the day, I can usually keep the medicinal/functional dose going for 8+ hours. If I overdo it and smoke too much straight off, then the heavy haze-like effect lasts for 3 hours (very consistently). This is one I purchase every time I see it offered, so it's worth trying.

Unparalleled creativity. Ended up sewing a pair of boxer shorts from scratch, sewing a hat shaped like rick from rick and morty, and giving myself a stick and poke—all within six hours of getting lit on this.

Amazing day strain. Good focus and happy feeling. No paranoia. Wonder limonine terp coming through but not over powering. The terpine profile is very complex with a background of citus and tropical hints.

A very good easy to grow sativa dominant hybrid that's very very stable. I germinated 5 seeds and got 5 females all exactly the same in appearance and not much difference in high, taste , smell etc.. Looked like clones they were so uniform and all ripened at the same time except 1 she took another 2 days. Super thick trichomes helps drying slow in warm dry areas where you need a method to such as cardboard boxes with holes etc.. Is needed. Didn't have to do anything and took 15 days to dry. Perfect IMO. Taste bad during the first week of cure with low lemon smell. This all goes away after week 3 of cure and the lemon mango candy flavored come out.(I used hydro systems with organic nutrients but think in organic soil the flavors and tastes would have been almost instant and better. Under my bed now and been cured a month and it's a super great high with mild pain relief and great for my anxiety. Very talkative but still will make u walk into a room and forget why lol. 4.5 stars I give it only because the yields are average and it could have been more colorful IMO. Can't taste the Romulan in it at all something I like but also have Rombery under the bed cured so I have my heavy fruity spivey Indica and my all day citrus smoke with the vortex. It's a creeper so don't over indulge wait 15 minutes b4 dosing again. Easiest plant I've ever grown looks so beautiful thru the whole grow.. Loved growing it. Also if u ever have the pleasure of growing this I suggest a scrog set up or lots of bamboo stakes to support the buds that are too much for the skinny branches to hold up. Strong for a sativa dominant helps me sleep or socialize with no ceiling or come down & 0 hangover. This is quality smoke from a quality breeder. Any bad reviews are on the despensory's for using a cheap grower or just plain low standards with making money more important than helping patients.

Tried The Vortex last night, smoked two bowls of it between me and my friend, it definitely lifted the mood, had fun and had an amazing vibe.
