Watermelon reviews

Pleasantly Surprised

500mg cartridge from Apex: taste is so sweet and enjoyable! I suffer from OCD so I am always on the hunt for strains that don’t induce paranoia and this is one of them, I felt great, no paranoia whatsoever. Great strain for day or night as it’s not to sedating in small doses but very sedative in high doses! An enjoyable strain for new users and seasoned pros.

This review is for Nameless Genetics' strain watermelon, which may be different than the Indica version listed here on Leafly. It's more often labeled as a sativa-dominant hybrid 'round these parts, but then, you can't really trust most dispensaries' menus (but that's drama for another time and place). So here's the dilly. I scored this medicine from Green Wolf in LA, having heard great things about Nameless's work, and it turns out the hype is REAL, brothers and sisters. The nugs are light, lime green, not too dense (which also makes me think this isn't an indica), totally covered in crystalline frost and perfectly trimmed & cured. The aroma is maybe the best I've ever encountered-- a blend of ripe banana peel and watermelon candy with the tiniest hint of spice in the background... It's quite literally like opening a pouch of Watermelon Big League Chew on a summer afternoon. Seriously, you will keep returning to the jar just to sniff this one, like a spun out truffle pig. Your significant other will worry that maybe you're taking this "weed thing" too far. But you know what? This shit smells like magical candy. It's bud fit for a Hufflepuff slumber party, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. ANYWAY. Flavor-wise, the watermelon is still totally present when vaped, but it's joined by other more familiar OG-type flavors of pine and citrus. It's tasty-- SUPER tasty, in fact-- but I think it smells even better than it smokes (or vapes, in my case). The effects are a unique and satisfying blend of weed's best qualities, with a sativa-like jolt of energy and euphoria at the onset (pressure around the eyes, giggles, goofiness) followed by relaxation and pain relief, with a trancey mental state. It's good and strong, but not "heavy" feeling-- I was able to dose repeatedly and stay functional until bedtime, at which point the body high eased me into a peaceful slumber. You get the benefits of a sativa-type rush without any of the raciness or insomnia that some flowers stick you with. All in all, I consider this world class stuff. The scent, flavor and effects are all top notch, and between this and the Mega Wellness I tried recently, Nameless Genetics are doing incredible work. If you're in SoCal, do yourself a favor and track down some of their flower...

Lighter watermelon taste. This works to help me sleep, though I need to put on a meditation or asmr to actually fall asleep. Most definitely helps, though. Dry mouth is a little more off the hook with this one than I’d like. Very noticeable when waking up in the night.

Very tasty smooth clear high exceptional

The smell was WillyWonkaFreakingGREAT, and the effect of the high is as much fun. When nicely ground, it is one of the smoothest smokes I've had in ages as provided by Green Sativa in Federal Heights, CO. The high starts with an exuberant "all the ideas! all the ideas are great, go for it!" buzz. About an hour after smoking, my physical pains feel lost to amnesia --- that is how I know when a strain is particularly helpful to my joint issues in low back and carpal tunnel pain, is when my body part can move and relax as if my pain never existed in the first place. Finding a strain like this is vital.

In Los Angeles it can be labeled as a Sativa because it is one of those rare Indica strains that are more stimulating but can so come with a potent knockout depending on... I guess you 😉 It tastes very sweet and makes me want more. It has strong analgesic properties.

What can I say but meh. Picked up a vape or this strain (86%). Honestly, didn’t really notice any profound effects. Less a slight buzz and getting tired l. Not really euphoric or fun to be honest. Kind of a hit it before you climb under the covers and go to sleep, as the cerebral buzz isn’t worth saying up for. Shame, i’m a huge fan of watermelon anything. So was hoping it’d be better.
