I reviewed this strain a couple weeks ago and was disappointed. I since tried it with a touch of Harlequin, Remedy, and Berry White, and discovered it is a great base for a blend.
Not only that, but after accidentally measuring out too much Harlequin (10% THC) and having a panic, I have gone back to The Wife as it's own medicine. I didn't feel the effects the first couple times, maybe I didn't use enough, maybe my vaporizer needed to be broken in, I don't know. I need 4-5 deep mouth-fulls of vapor to get the benefit, but it's just enough THC to induce mild euphoria and slight lightheadedness (lasts 5-15 minutes) and a gentle body buzz that lasts about an hour. I never expected anything in the world to work for migraines, but with The Wife, I know it's worn off after an hour because that's when the pain returns.
The aroma is really starting to grow on me as well, and the taste is very mild (like white tea?) and it doesn't have any short-term memory loss or racing thoughts. Any sativa I've tried as a pick-me-up on dreary days always lead to racing thoughts and anxiety, so that's not for me, but this is mildly uplifting for a while, sort of like caffeine.
Maybe I'm a super lightweight and sensitive to THC (under 1% in my jar from Terrapin Farm in Pennsylvania) and eventually I'll need to blend it, but I think the 19% CBD is super helpful to me. I'm glad it exists in a fast-acting format (flower, as opposed to CBD gummies or oil).
PS, anything I got from Terrapin Farm so far has been super fresh, aromatic, and not dried out at all.
I have been using this for weeks, it was the first strain I tried for pain relief. My first legal purchase. This is a working weed, a motivator, no buzz but it does work at knocking back the pain.

The Wife is my go-to strain any time I want to neutralize the psychoactivity of a THC strain so that I can vape without seeming altered. By itself, it leaves me calm and uplifted. Gotta get more!

Heard good things. Can’t wait to try
alright...i guess I'll say it...for me, this strain was absolute garbage.
i got reccomended this by a fellow EDS friend who swore by it. i smoked this a very little every other day for about a month, & the high was horrible evey time. i have several chronic illnesses (EDS, POTS, MCAS, FM, etc.) as well as anxiety, depression, etc...this strain made me irritated, emotional, feel worse about my life AND only took away maybe a 10th of my physical pain. also my blood pressure bottomed out evey single time it started to fade which left me with a migrane & a couchlock every time. does nothing for period pain either. i really am trying to be nice but i just don't get the hype. oh and the smoke on the inhale was noticeably scratchy.

Raven Horse Farmz ut grow beautiful strain of wife this yr
The best strain! I use it to help with my 24/7 migraine status and all the pain, nausea, & especially seizures this type of migraine causes. In the past 5 years, this strain has been all I've used for seizures! NO bad side effects have I experienced from this wonderful strain!
