Overall: A great indica for those with a lower tolerance or new to cannabis or for those that want to chill out without being stoned to the bone. What's especially nice is the unique genetics (kudos to Altsol for the pheno hunt to find this one) and A+ cure on these nugs.

Looks: Dense, green nugs with quite a few red hairs. Very well cured and trimmed.

Smell: A combo of grape wine and overripe fruit with a light scent of vanilla or cream. Also, an aroma that's unique compared to other strains in the DC market. Not a room filling scent, but pleasant.

Flavor: Tastes like it smells, vape is smooth and pleasant.

Entry Effect: Induced a relaxing body effect like a warm hug. Head change was mild with no raciness or racing thoughts, but also no euphoria. Definitely a stoney strain, but only mildly so. Slowed thoughts down in a pleasant way.

Exit effect: Clean exit, no drowsiness. Faded quickly after the first hour. Noticable body effect lingered.

Taste/Smell/Look: Dense nugs with a sweet/kush aroma that's not strong, but noticable. Very tasty and sweet aroma. Found it to be a smooth vape experience.

Effects: This is really well rounded CBD strain that brightens my mood immediately and delivers a warm, almost pulsing body effect when using a lot. Great daytime/anytime strains with great pain relief and a mild, energizing effect. It did not make me sleepy, but was quite relaxing. Definitely stops any anxiety or worry-thoughts you have without feeling a crushing stone.

Note: I've used Honeydew Kush off and on for 3 years and recently found a couple of old nugs that were stored in one of my humidified CVaults. They were at least 18 months old, but still perfectly preserved and a great vaping experience. One of the most durable strains I've found for long-term storage.

Taste: Incredibly tasty and aromatic nugs! Slightly more complex smell and taste than a traditional purps or GDP.

Effects: Very smooth entry no with no raciness. Immediate calming vibe and soothing body sensation, but not a knock out kush type punch so it was great for watching a playoff game and chatting with friends or tucking into a netflix show. Upbeat and relaxing into hour 2 with very nice smooth exit around end of hour 2.

I would definitely recommend!

First off - Sativas and hazes especially are typically too racy and anxiety-producing for me to enjoy. As a result, I've spent years avoiding Hazes due to my sensitivity to them. But thanks to some of the new CBD rich varieties at Takoma and some really great advice gleaned from reviews by Experienced WestCoaster on here, I've started to wade back into to the Sativa waters and it's been amazing! I'm discovering a completely new mood-elevating and functional high that's enabling me to medicate even during the day for the first time ever.

As for the OG Haze itself, I found the nugs to be gorgeous and scented strongly of fruit and tropical flowers, very smooth burn and no lung expansion I could detect. Very tasty, berry exhale.

As for effects, due to my sensitivity to Hazes I simply mixed a tiny amount of Dreamsicle Skunk (high CBD) into my vape along with mostly OG Haze. I got a wonderful head affect immediately, but no raciness. A really crystal clear mood elevation and balanced euphoria came on quickly and lasted for almost 2 hours. Music was better, food tasted better and everything felt novel and funny. Yet felt very functional and light which meant no heaviness toward the end of hour 2 and absolutely no drowsiness which is a revelation for me. I went on to vape several bowls of OG Haze over 7 hours with zero drowsiness so could definitely be a daytime smoke. Highly recommend!

Again, many thanks to the most prolific reviewer on here: Experienced WestCoaster. He or she has imparted a tremendous amount of insight about these strains and especially about the power of mixing strains to create new or rarely encountered effects. Mixing strains allows you to control the trajectory of your high from entry to exit. These insights have transformed how I medicate so I encourage you to try mixing as well!

Gorgeous looking, tight nugs that have the brighest orange hairs I've ever seen. Aroma is pleasant and fruity like tropical flowers, very low odor.

I sought out this strain for it's high CBD to help primarily with nerve pain and secondarily to lift the "winter blues." I have tried other high CBD strains in Colorado such as Cannatonic (11%CBD/7% THC) and Harlequin (similar) and found them to be excellent daytime/anytime strains with great pain relief and just a mild, energizing effect.

I should preface my review by saying I am an indica guy and always avoid sativas because they produce anxiety for me. The exception is high CBD sativas which I've found to be great medicinal strains so I had high hopes for Green Punch. It's definitely a creeper high with limited effects for 5-10 minutes and then sativa "punch" arrives in the head, followed by an elevated heart rate, racing thoughts and restless energy galore. Given my sensitivity to the buzzy sativa high I found it harder hitting than I expected, much more so than either the Cannatonic or Harlequin from Colorado. This racy buzz lingered for about 45 minutes then mellowed nicely to a very clear headed positive vibe that lasted for almost 4 hours! The CBD was potent and delivered energizing effects throughout my body almost like pulses of energy. Mucho pain relief.

Mood-wise I didn't feel particularly euphoric, but I did feel in better spirits and remarkably the feeling lasted for the entire weekend. It felt as though the med had "reset" my mood to upbeat - which was very welcome and not something I typically get from an indica.

All in all, a strong medicinal strain that's more potent that you'd think, especially if you have sensitivity to Sativas. Definitely a wide awake, energizing strain you'd want to avoid before bedtime.
