The strain really does smell like banana- which is lovely. As far as effects, it's a pretty standard light/bubbly happy high, though I'd say in particular Banana Runtz causes more munchies than a lot of other strains do.

The main word I'd use to describe Purple Punch is "grounding", both mentally and physically. Anxiety melts away, and it feels like the strain is just holding you in place and allowing you to experience the world around you - audio especially intensifies a bit, and the strain just gives off the feeling of "I could stand/sit here forever" - this could of course lead to couch lock, but that's sort of what you want from this kind of strain.

This strain for me is super smiley and euphoric, its definitely a "I'd like to talk a lot" strain through and through. It's mostly head high, and I found that despite getting super high off of it it never left me super foggy or slow - it also has one of the cleanest comedowns I've experienced in the strain, once the effects were fully gone I basically felt normal - rather than having a long "afterglow" of sorts - which could be a good or bad thing depending on the person. Five stars since it perfectly delivers an experience. I'd definitely seek this out.

3.5 stars is a bit more accurate than 4, I definitely enjoyed it as a strain, but it sort of feels like it's not a whole experience. White Nightmare essentially just feels like pure euphoria, which is pleasant, but it's missing a lot of the body high that I think makes euphoric highs so fun. Sour Diesel is a strain which accomplishes a similar euphoria but maintains the body high to actually play off that euphoria. Without the body high, I almost feel like White Nightmare feels like a 'shorter' high. I've smoked White Nightmare in a bong mixed with GMO (chemdawg x girl scout cookies) and that definitely made it a better experience for me - the more body high heavy feelings from the GMO really combined well with the White Nightmare, and helped resolve the euphoria into creative feelings.

Note that this review is from smoking shake specifically, which I find to often be a bit of a different experience to freshly ground flower. MTF is one of my favorite highs, it's extremely third person feeling - almost psychedelic esque. I get a consistent feeling of being in a video game sort of, in the sense that I'm controlling my body from an outside perspective - definitely enjoyable, very good strain for smoking in nature with nice weather.

Flavor wise it's super savory and earthy, mushroomy almost - I love that, but I could see some people not. The high is extremely bassy, heavy and grounding - it sort of pulls you down to the earth by the bottoms of your legs/arms - definitely pleasant!
