This was a pleasant but odd surprise. Even on balance strains I still get a bit of the THC head buzz. It's manageable, but it's there. On this strain, it's very, very faint. Faint to the point where you don't feel "high". This was both trying it by vape and also trying it by smoking a bowl.
The breakdown I was given on this blend from my dispensary was a potential of 14.21% CBD, and 1.06% THC.
The effect? At first I thought it was a very "meh" mood it put me in, but on my second round, it was more of a "zen" mood. Calm, relaxed, but not too distracted. Most of this hit my body - I felt relaxed, the muscle pain was there but it was like the volume was turned way down. At the gym I felt I was more flexible and could push myself a bit further (safely, of course).
As to the smell - at first you do smell the lavender, but after a few days you smell mostly an earthly smell with hints of herbs and spices. Tasting it however you can taste a floral note, which is probably the lavender as it had a soapy note (NOTE: that's just my reaction to floral scents; even in cologne I find them "soapy") however it was actually quite pleasant.
This is not a blend to make you sleepy or super THC energetic hyperactive. It is a blend to have when you need to get stuff done and you want the pain to go away. I wouldn't say happy, but I would say relaxed and chilled out...

Treasure Island provides noticeable pain relief and a reassuring sensation of wellness with a short-lived high and only a minor sense of impairment ... much like a joint of my home-grown Humboldt County weed from the 1970s. After smoking a carefully measured 1 grain (1/15 gram) portion of flower in a K-Vape at 421 degrees, it feels as though I've consumed aspirin, alcohol, and caffeine all at the same time. My ounce of Treasure Island flowers tested at slightly over 6% THC, which might seem awfully low to 21st century consumers, but for those of us who would like to enjoy all the positive effects of marijuana without a whole lot of physical or intellectual impairment, this strain is an excellent daily smoke.
Great for relaxing in the evening when you don't want the sleeping effects of a strong indica or the jitters from an energetic sativa.
These hybrid has a throaty hit and mellow favor. I enjoy smoking this bud out of a water bong.
Love that there is no couch lock, which for me, means no anxiety or panic attack. Greatly relaxes the muscles and eases nerve pain. Definitely a medicinal strain, not for heavier users looking for a high, you won’t find it here. But, you will get some good pain relief and relaxation.
Bought under the name "Free" by Solei. First thing I noticed was that it smelled like lemon candy. I vaporized 2 bowls (low tolerance) and wasn't really high per se, but definitely had a bit of a buzz. The "high" was mostly just relaxing, great to just hang out and watch cartoons or play video games, as you're still functional. Good introductory strain.
This is what convinced me about medical cannabis. Bought as "Free" by Soleil from Aphria. This strain murders a weather pressure headache within seven minutes. Autistic people and other people who have sensory sensitivity disorders, give this one a look - this slays my sensory hyper-sensitivity, takes less than an hour to make everything bearable again - light, sounds, touch (no more wanting to claw my skin off), everything, back to tolerable. This high-CBD strain even starts knocking back my depression after a few days' build-up. The smell in nug is lovely, soft and floral. Grinding brings up even more floral and sweet qualities. Vaped, the taste is smooth, sweet and a bit fruity, with a hint of a bitter aftertaste. The effects hit me quickly and decisively and last for hours. This has an energizing effect on me and will give me back enough energy to get a few more chores done, at the end of the day. For me, this is good medicine.
A really light high, great for smoking whole joints without getting too high. Head buzz is super short lived but it gives a full body relaxation.
Great strain, really worked to relieve the stress of life and almost immediate killed the pain in my knees. I am a fan of the high CBD strains so the lack of a head high really made my day I was able to keep getting my projects done.
