V........e

I picked this up today in Illinois by Columbia Care. Oh my. Really intense fragrance, like overripe fruit. Quite sticky. I used a dry herb vape. A few hits and pure bliss. Prior to vaping, I felt pretty bad. Aches, pains and fatigue seemed to vanish. Taste is rather intense, but grows on you. Especially with effects like this. Not racy at all. Alert, but not frantic. I could sleep, or I could go out on the town. Or I could just stare at the TV with a stupid grin on my face. Definitely a memorable strain.

It's like that cream cheese commercial where the woman takes a bite of a bagel and floats around over the clouds. Puts a stupid smile on my face. Mellow high. Let the stuff fly by. Don't worry -- be happy. Definitely going on my list.

ELB has always been a favorite, but I picked up flower (Early Lemon Berry RBX) at Mission in Cal City, IL the other day, and it was the best ever. In fact, it may be the best herb I have ever consumed, and I'm a 45-year veteran. The grower of this masterpiece is nuEra, and the product is pure perfection. Testing label says 26.67%, which is high for this strain. When I opened the container, the scent, well, it is LOUD. You can really smell the Lemon Skunk. Big long, dense buds. Quite sticky. Clogs up the grinder immediately. Great to smoke or vape. Very smooth. Vaping really brings out the flavor, which is excellent, piney to me The vibe is very happy and relaxed. Problems and pain seem to melt away, and all is right with the world again. If I had to be stranded on an island, this is what I'd want to take with me.

This is my first Leafly review. Just never felt inspired to write one, or got lost in the moment and forgot to write one, or just figured there were enough reviews on the strain already. When I saw this on the menu at Green Stem in Niles and looked it up, no reviews. I asked the budtender and was told it was a hybrid, more indica. I'm more of a sativa-leaning hybrid type, but I decided to take a chance. I am so glad I did. The buds are dense and sticky with some purple color. I'm not a connoisseur, but the fragrance was both earthy and fruity. Also tasted fruity/earthy. The grower is TruGro and per the testing label, it was 17.4%. That seems low to me. Really nice high. It comes on gradually, and then it's bliss. Just a happy, peaceful, calm, lovely high. It made me smile, and also a little spacey. I never felt sedated, even when it started to wear off in about an hour. Serendipity is a great name for this strain, because it sure was an unexpected surprise!
