Banana OG
11/26/2012
I was really happy with this strain. It has a very potent smell, full of crystals with strong hits that allow even just one nug to go a long way.
It has a tropical smell that almost has a spiced aftertaste, I can only really describe like if you could have a really tropical chai, this is what it would smell like. At first the crystals weren't obviously visible, only showing up in the photo with the flash reflecting off them, but once you start to break the nug about the crystals are very apparent. The bud was very sticky. A slightly tropical flavor, though I know it's common for these to taste overly fruity mine wasn't.
I experienced a lot of lethargy and laziness, slight tired agitation towards wanting to do anything. I definitely wouldn't recommend smoking this and intending to do much after. Towards the middle of my high I got a small amount of munchies and there at the end I was very tired. During the first 25 minutes or so after my first hits I did notice a slight peak in arousal but nothing crazy. Overall it was a nice body high, a very nice way to break my two month dry spell.
The only side effects I noticed were dry mouth, not really cotton mouth but my saliva was very thick and i had a strong thirst, and very slight dry eye.
Very helpful with my anxiety, though it would not be my got to for high anxiety days. It didn't necessarily relax my heart rate so much as my thoughts. The tiredness towards the end of the high would be more than perfect for insomnia, I wasn't instantly tired and falling asleep but gradually was able to relax into a nice slumber.
I would rate this around a six because I don't care for the lethargy but I give it a seven because the high was worth it.
