Clementine reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Clementine.
Tastes and smells amazing.
A strain with a good head effect and mild body high. It did not interfere with attention the way other strains often do.
I took an entire syringe of this strain and it had me moving non-stop for a few hours. I couldn't set still my mind would race with all kinds of thoughts. I had to take some deep breaths and ground my mind. After a couple of hours I began to mellow out more but felt really energized. This strain would be best if used during the day time. Im a heavy toker as well. The syringe has more of a punch then the flower does in my opinion. All in all I would recommend this strain as a wake and bake simply because of all the energy it provides. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who has anxiety or hypertension or high blood pressure.
The third strain I've tried, the first true sativa, and oh BOY is this a good one.
Before anything else, I have to comment on the taste: the flavor of this strain is A++ AMAZING! When I got this, it was in concentrate form in a vape cartridge from Timeless Vapes. They were having a 15% off sale on vapes at the dispensary I got this from (Nova Dispensary in Mesa, AZ). I told my budtender I enjoy sweet, fruity, floral flavors, and was looking for a strain that is great at relieving severe pain (my menstrual cramps have been AWFUL this time around and I was in desperate need of something other than a heavy indica to smoke for the following reason), while also either not making me any more tired, or even better, LESSENING my fatigue. (I am always tired and run down, I haven't been diagnosed but I'm almost positive it's Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I plan to see a doctor about it once other more pressing medical issues are addressed.)
He suggested a cartridge of Clementine. I had never heard of this strain before, so I asked him what it tasted like, and he said it was like eating those little mandarin oranges, or like biting into one of those sweet little Halo/Cutie oranges. He was TOTALLY right! This strain is like inhaling the freshest, sweetest orange you've ever tasted. Also a few other citrus/tropical flavors: some hits taste faintly of lemon and/or grapefruit (mainly in the form of a sweet-and-sour accent), and I picked up on a few spicy, herbal, earthy notes as well. I can't speak so much to the smoke from the flower-form of this strain, but the vapor produced by the concentrate smells AMAZING. Even my grandmother, who's newer to the whole idea of medical cannabis use and previously never much liked the smell of cannabis products, said that the vapor smells great. I'm almost tempted to sit in my car and vape on this so the interior of my car smells all tropical and fruity.
Now onto the effects. When I asked what symptoms this strain helped to relieve, my budtender used the information from good ol' Leafly's strain page: stress, depression, fatigue, pain, headaches. Sounds like me in a nutshell. I was a bit concerned because pain was the 4th out of 5 symptoms listed in terms of what the strain popularly helps with, but I decided to try it anyway... and oh my GODS I'm glad I did. First of all, this is a great wake-and-bake strain. Just a couple good hits off this concentrate and I was motivated to leap out of bed, make a decent breakfast, and hop right into the shower. I even took a "full" shower (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, shaved everything, and lotion afterwards), which I usually only take once every one to two weeks or so simply because I so severely lack the energy to take anything but a quickie. Now I'm chilling out on the couch, waiting to go out and get my nails done, all nice and clean and smelling sweet and fruity (just like this strain) with soft, clean skin and hair. I feel GREAT! As someone whose depression can destroy motivation and the will to get out of bed in the morning, this is WONDERFUL medicine. Then there's the pain: two hits and I was feeling happy, energized, and motivated. Four hits? My killer menstrual pain? GONE. My pain is often worse in the morning right when I wake up. I rolled over and toked on this, and within minutes, the pain was bearable. A few more minutes and it was gone. Simply amazing.
The only thing that gets this strain docked a star has to do with some of the negative side effects. Granted, I did get a little TOO stoned on this yesterday (I mean, it was Stoney Saturday), so it could have simply been because I just partook a bit too much, but after a while I started to experience a pretty severe headache. I know "headache" is one of the symptoms this strain was listed to help, but maybe after a certain amount of it, its effects sort of start to contradict itself. (Or maybe it's just one of those cases of "every person experiences it differently".) In any case, the headache was bad enough to where I had to actually try to take a nap. I slept a couple hours but the headache came back later and I ended up just going to bed early. After a while I also started to notice some dizziness, blurred vision, and disorientation. My eyes also got SUPER dry and burned a little; just really uncomfortable.
Over all though, in moderation, this strain is awesome. It provides great symptom relief for both pain AND fatigue, and is a great "get up and go" strain for those who may struggle to get out of bed in the morning. It's not something I would get totally baked on, but a few hits here and there would definitely keep me bright and active throughout the day. I have a feeling this will DEFINITELY remain one of my favorite wake-and-bake strains!
The initial notes of Clementine hit me hard. My nostrils flared and I whinnied like a newly realized colt. Yet as I found my legs, the citrusy delight trailed into dark canyon. Accents of human feces and my grandmothers hand lotion...walking into a tranny butt quiff wall of fog...after a double shift...working the sloppy Joes in the freight liners to get enough change for some meth and a gas station burrito.
I digress. Fuckin dig this strain. Clementine is a level day time productivity tool.
A very pleasant surprise. I picked this up on a whim just to have an extra sativa on hand. It's quite mellow for a sativa. I feel very relaxed after the long day I've had, but could still focus on something if needed. Not a heavy in the head feeling at all.
The taste is very nice. Citrus, piney, and green for sure. Excited to see how this will do for a wake and bake.
Sweet and light citrus flavor. Fun and energizing effects. Helped with pain, anxiety, IBS. Good anytime of day.
Has a smooth pull towards a brighter light feeling across your nerves, almost uplifting but is a properly grown strand that’s been cured correctly.
