First of all I swear the smell and taste of this strain is sooo similar to a milk oolong tea I’ve had I can’t get over it. I smoked way more than I thought I did because I was expecting a stronger head high. When I felt relaxed, calm, centered, and with less pain it dawned on me it was the weed! Highly recommend for migraines, stress-related muscle tension, and for a functional body high for pain relief or stress relief.
Overall, a dependably effective and potent strain. It works very well for anxiety and depression and I enjoy using it in the afternoon after work. Since it is in-between a CBD strain and a THC strain with 10% CBD and 6% THC, I find it too much of a head high to use as a main daytime strain, yet it gives me too much energy to be a nighttime strain. Hence, it is the perfect afternoon strain. It isn't great for focus, but gives strong, uplifting feelings of happiness and obliterates stress, anxiety, and negative thoughts. It does not leave any dryness in the mouth, but does cause a small amount of dryness in the eyes.
I have been an on and off smoker for about 10 plus years now. I have consistently used cannabis products (CBD, THC in form of flower and concentrate for about a year now, where I have recorded and actually used medicinal (self medicated). I stop all my pharmaceutical medications for Insomnia, ADD, OCD, and Depression. Living an active lifestyle consisting of weight lifting, yoga, light martial arts, beginner running, and the occasional crossfit class I'm big on how strains make me feel. Sorry for the history lesson, but making you aware that my reviews will be based off what a strain does for my well being and performance.
Critical Mass should be called "Mass Effect" and is definitely in my top 5 smokes. I know everyone says that but this is the PERFECT indica for me. I'm so functional mentally and it calms my brain down a good bit. Great body effects especially post workout and being on my feet all day. Munchies were controllable, inspired to write, yoga felt so great and I felt like I sunk so deep into the asana! Your body feels very weightless and relaxed. Would definitely recommend this for all levels of blazers. Smooth taste and easy on the throat. I'm very picky about indica dominant and this is by far one of my favorites. This strain is great for the following:
Post Workout Pain- muscle soreness disappears.
Anxiety- if you've had a heavy day of human interaction this dissipates social anxieties felt throughout the day.
Light Focus- be ADD as f*ck (clinically diagnosed and medicated) this is a great way to calm my mind so I can relax.
Meditation/Prayer- puts your very close to your true inner self and higher power. Not trippy but very serene and peaceful.
Yoga- yeah just flow and you'll see! Everyone should google sun salutation A or moon salutation if you're going to smoke this.
I will try to post a review for each strain I try now that I live in a legalized state! My reviews will be similar to this one and as a disclaimer I'm not the person that smokes a strain once and swears its the best thing since Taco Bell. I give at least 3-4 sessions before I review. Peace, Shalom, Namaste my friends!
Stay Lifted!

A good, solid everyday strain for sure. Mine was listed at 11.9% THC 11.3% CBD. Nice full body high. Like a Xanax feel to it. Similar to MediHaze in many ways. Definitely good for physical pain relief and stress reduction. No paranoia or anxiety from it. I did 1/2 a joint and 45 minutes later could still feel it. .i approve
I have PTSD, 24/7 neuropathy nerve pain from diabetes, pancreatitis pain, cirrhosis of the liver stage 4, arthritis and back pain. I had been reading a lot about the different strains for my pain. I usually only get 2-3 hours sleep due to my PTSD. I have also learned that this strain also helps you get off any hard drugs. I can say this! I when I was a teenager would say God made weed and man made alcohol, synthetic drugs that only kill You! Who do you trust? In God I trust! This strain when I first smoked a part of a joint. My pain, depression, and I was able to sleep for 9 hours. I am going use this awesome strain. I found at Nectar Gresham, Oregon 17.16% C.B.D. / 10.66% TCH rating which in my opinion is the perfect balance for pain relief and helped my PTSD. I recommend this if you are looking for a good flower. Critical Mass.
My local dispensary had a deal on this strain, 1/2 oz for $55 so I decided to give this cbd dominant strain a try. First I was a little disappointed, some of the reviews I had read implied that this was a very strong strain and it was not for me. I’m a regular user, that smokes every night and I had to smoke almost an entire 1 1/4 raw cone to feel anything. However, once I smoked this for pain that’s why I gave it 5 stars. I can smoke this for a bad headache, body pains, bad cramps and in seconds the pain is gone! If you suffer from pain but don’t want the head high feeling this is the strain for you!
Critical mass is my daily go to strain. It gives me a really great 'active high' and it dramatically increases my mobility. It's the perfect strain for chronic pain and nausea.
Rightly named, this strain packs a huge punch. The high THC content relieves stress and causes an intense clear headed calm while the high CBD content helps with muscle relaxation and insomnia. Buds have a nauseatingly sweet smell with an earthy musky taste. Can induce paranoia, irritability, & mild psychosis if too much smoked due to the high thc and is therefore not for inexperienced smokers.
