Honestly, this might be my favourite strain so far. I've got a lot of chronic pain and fatigue, as well as the mental crap that comes along with dealing with that. This strain is the only one that's been able to help with all of those aspects without getting me locked to the couch. I was worried it would be too strong for daytime use, but it's great for me during the day. Helps muscles relax and also helps me to eat (I get bad nausea also). Then by night time, it helps me fall asleep much faster and I'm finding I'm actually having some refreshing sleep again. I've also found I haven't had to smoke as much as I normally would in a day, so that's also been a surprise bonus. Couldn't recommend it more, definitely try some if you can get your hands on it.

Probably some of the best, most potent weed I've had in a long time, not really suitable for an inexperienced smoker. Very heavy body high, changed vision (colors and everything looked so different and bright) very pleasant, relaxed and happy feeling. definitely not a day time weed because you will be on couch lock and sleeping like a baby in no time.

Great indica- total relaxation from head to toe... love this by the pool or when watching movies...
It is supposed to be called critical mass because of the size of the buds BUT I also think the following:
Had very little in a one shooter pipe, almost no effect, then took 2 tokes from portable vaporizer and I was feeling the high, 5 mins later 2 more and reached CRITICAL MASS.
It makes you sort of dizzy, very psychoactive, images get distorted and you sort of hallucinate, then I read it had very high THC that explains it.
Your body feels stoned relax but it gives enough energy to not bringing you down.
Definitely can't focus with this, not a clear head strain, it is the opposite though you don't get to be babbling everywhere but you do keep worrying that everybody is looking at you when probably they're not.
If you have nothing to do on that day and nothing to worry about then just follow the ride and you will feel in a Disney attraction but every time you want to think on something, get inside your head or get introspection it will work against you. In this sense, it gives a lot of paranoia, of all the strains I have right now this is the only one that clearly gives paranoia, also makes you worry BUT these negative effects are not too strong nor overpowering, you never fully take them seriously but the problem is that they are there the whole time and I think weed is supposed to take problems away, not giving you more, it would be a total failure if you smoke too much of this strain and end up becoming an anxious worry-some person.
That is the problem with this strain, also the distortions, trippy high and dizziness does sometimes become a bit overpowering, if I would have had more I would have had a panic attack in the street, proceed with caution.
One a plus, it makes you quite horny.
This review is on Critical Mass sap-wax by Dream City, WA. 27.3 THC. 56.3 CBD
So the package says 'distinct sour cherry flavor' and damn they're not kidding. It's unlike any other cherry flavor I've ever experienced from cannabis. I never got super ripped of this wax but I was very comfortably high, relaxed, clear headed and most noticeably completely pain free. I used this strain after a 10 hour work day of roofing and it worked liked no other, seriously. That's why I give this strain a 10/10, it truly is medicinal.
Not a good one for my diabetes. It sedates me to the point of barely being able to make it to a bed, so if my blood sugar is off, it will still be off (and dangerous) once I fall asleep. I have only used it a few times because of this concern. So what I do now, is not use it if my blood sugar is trending downward.
Every time I smoked or vaped it, or bonged, I fell into deep and relaxing sleep for 2 hours. But - only when my blood sugar had been at the high end of the normal range for a while, otherwise I don't take a chance of having a low during sleep. I suspect the symptoms of a low would not wake me up. Diabetics will know what I'm talking about.
If I wanted to fall asleep easier, I would certainly want a gentler strain. This one just knocks me off my feet, even with tiny doses in my vaporizer.
All I'm looking for is pain relief, without drowsiness or mood effects, so this is not a good one for me. It would be great for someone looking for a brief and deep sleep, though, like right before bed.

Critical Mass has changed my life!!! I went in today to get something to help with my back because I could barely walk the past few days and when I got home and smoked I was smiling so big because of the immediate relief. My back pain went from a 10 to about a 2. I could sit up and lie down and bend over fine for almost four hours with mixing two bong bowls of Critical Mass and Chronic Thunder combined. Right now I just smoked a bowl by itself and it helped me instantly for my knee and back and the head change hit after about 30 seconds and boy is it nice! I am a heavy heavy smoker. I didn't expect it to be such a good high because it was supposed to be a CBD strain but man it does the trick!! It also tastes wonderful! Tastes a little woody with a nice fruitiness at the end. I would highly recommend this strain for anyone in any kind of pain.
