The entourage effect is the theory that terpenes work alongside to cannabinoids to influence your experience. To sum it up, the unique scent combinations of the terpenes work in a similar way to aromatherapy.

Aromas: Sharp, Spice, Sweet, Wood

Limonene Ghost Train Haze Strain

Aromas: Citrus, Lemon, Herbal

Limonene is the second most common terpene in nature and can also be found in citrus rinds. It has antioxidant properties and is used in topical products to allow other chemical compounds to pass through the skin faster.

Ghost Train Haze. This one is a great one because I feel that this weed is very unique and set apart from other strains. When I smoke this, I really want to get up and go on adventures. I feel aware of my surroundings and can even focus very well. But, at the same time, feel very chill and carefree. Carefree is the best word to describe the feeling. You just feel ALIVE. You feel perfect. You'll want to stay in the great moments you have with this weed forever.

S.....tLeafly User

I like to write long reviews but short story, this my favorite strain and is unbelievable for depression. Perfect morning strain. Honestly, this is no "beginner" strain and anyone that has grown this strain right, is in for a ride. I found that as a small guy with a fairly high tolerance (even when I haven't smoked for a while) it even knocks me back with only a bowl or two.

S.....6Leafly User

A must have sativa! This was great while walking on a nice day. Energizing, uplifting, and just a bliss feeling. The taste was intensely citrus with sweet earthy undertones. Smelled like fresh lemons under a sappy pine tree (haha) is the best way to describe the pungent aroma. Everytime you crack open the jar you take a big whiff.

J.....rLeafly User

This strain lives up to its name! The effects are exactly as they sound, like you got hit by a damn train. A train of rushing, heavy, full, highly potent cargo of cannabinoids. As soon as it peaks, it's like being smashed in the face with a mushrooming sledgehammer. Then wham! Then - EVERYTHING is heightened.

D.....lLeafly User

This is some LOUD Herb! Super citrus lemon mint smell. A Top 5 strain now in my own opinion. Very smooth smoke, beautiful Amber and snow look to it. Helps in all ways for a person needing and uplifted day and down in the waters. Grab it if you can! Must try.

5 Best Sativa Strains

 

Looking for a head-rush high that will leave you feeling energized, focused and productive? We recommend going for a sativa. They’re great for helping you tackle physical activities, whether it’s a long and leisurely hike or a cleaning spree. Here are our picks for the 5 best sativa strains on the market right now:

Located off of 495 in Lowell, MA, Smyth Cannabis Co. is the most popular dispensary for sativas near me in Andover, Ayer, Billerica, Burlington, Chelmsford, Nashua, Dracut, Groton, Haverhill, Lawrence, Littleton, Lowell, North Andover, North Reading, Reading, Stoneham, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough, Wakefield, Westford, Wilmington, Woburn and the surrounding towns.

 

What is a Sativa?

Sativas are known for their uplifting and energizing effects. They are associated with more of a “head high” than indica strains.

But the difference between an indica and a sativa is actually the makeup of the plant itself. From 1753 to 1785, all cannabis plants were categorized as “Cannabis sativa L.,” with “Cannabis” as the genus, “sativa” as the species, and “L.” to indicate its Linnaean taxonomy.

After this time period, French biologist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck separated the plant into two distinct species: “Cannabis sativa,” a taller and more fibrous plant, and “Cannabis indica,” a much shorter and more psychoactive plant.

5. Ghost Train Haze

Ghost Train Haze is a sativa unlike others you’ve tried before. This best sativa strain contender has a sour citrus and floral aroma.

It has been known to help with concentration and creativity in smaller doses.

Top Picks — High THC Strains

With so many strains of cannabis available, you’re probably wondering what to make of the percentages used to label each one. The THC percentage indicates the concentration of THC that the product contains per gram. THC is the psychoactive ingredient in cannabis. Usually, the higher in THC your product is, the faster and more intensely you will feel the “head high” and analgesic effects (pain relieving, appetite stimulating, etc.). Here are our favorite high-THC strains of marijuana:

Located off of 495 in Lowell, MA, Smyth Cannabis Co. is the most popular dispensary for high THC strains near Andover, Ayer, Billerica, Burlington, Chelmsford, Nashua, Dracut, Groton, Haverhill, Lawrence, Littleton, Lowell, North Andover, North Reading, Reading, Stoneham, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough, Wakefield, Westford, Wilmington, Woburn and the surrounding towns.

THC: Is The More The Merrier?

Remember that “stronger” isn’t always the same thing as “better.” Taking in a higher amount of THC than you are used to increases your likelihood of experiencing some of the unpleasant side effects.

Anxiety is the most common side effect of THC. Each strain contains its own unique terpene profile, which is why there is often so much variation in their taste and smell. The terpenes present in the strain you choose will also play a key role in your experience. Certain terpenes can exacerbate feelings of anxiety.

It may take longer for you to feel the effects of a flower lower in THC, but this may also give you more of an opportunity to truly enjoy its benefits without getting too high for your comfort.
