Just came across this yesterday, and it is indeed nomz. It looks and smells more funky than it tastes alone : large frosty, densely pistilled, light green sativa shaped colas, pleasant and smooth hitting, unique, mellow earthy/mango taste from well grown flower in new glass.
Subtle yet sly, this girl might be one you'd underestimate if you didn't see what went into the next J your very chatty but suddenly quiet buddy passes you.... since damned if it doesn't change your head space before you're finished with the 2nd inhale. This coulda been called "wtf was I rambling about?!" This is an bullet-train of thought eliminator - which is nice, or nicely frustrating; if you were previously thinking stressful, or stressfully important thoughts... what were those again? Doesn't matter. Try. Juuust try to remember... anything close to that point you are flailing to make. Such as pondering why you are you getting blazed with such important stuff to think?
These, and many other cerebrally deep thoughts twirl to bits and bytes out of your short term memory. So an hour or 2 later you won't even be able to convey how Jillybean crept up, suddenly pounced and planted you face down in your own drool. Insomia anyone? Problem solved. Seriously. Far more effective than the nightly zolpidem CR I've taken for decades (and now, no longer need whatsoever).
So naturally the always super good and responsible decision making part of my brain decided, all by itself kind you... that this needed to be stronger. Therefore, while hopelessly rambling before drool-thirty, I whipped up some rosin from it. Same effect, just an order of magnitude mo'betta. Promptly upgrading us from, say, flying upon a private G5 (which sooo doesnt suck) to what I can only imagine a kushy Concorde seat was like.
The only negatives? Short lived, dry eyed and unconcious may not be best for daytime? With a few more generations to work in some longer legs, this will girl be astronaut material. Si do keep at it you crazy breeders - fine, fine job here indeed.
Although it's definitely a creative high, the paranoia is very real with this one. Although I can reason with myself out of feeling too much anxiety, no one likes the initial fright. I am still productive on it though, it feels like I'm scared of the task at hand, but I can still do it efficiently. I found myself finding creative solutions for things that may have stumped me under another sativa. I tested this out multiple times before writing a review for it, because I didn't want one time high and paranoid to become my irrationally based judgment. However, every single time I have smoked this, I have felt panicked at various times during the high. I smoked it alone, with friends just playing smash, and with my girlfriend. The highs with Jillybean are high, but the lows are very scary for me. Which is interesting because I don't suffer from anxiety or panic attacks or anything of the sort.
I wanted to preface with that, because that's why I'm only giving Jillybean two stars. However, the positive parts of the high were quite fun and I think are the moments that most users are referring to when rating this strain. I think I'm quite funny, my confidence is boosted, I give myself permission to be silly, and I'm super creative artistically- I found myself singing a LOT on JB. This isn't the strain for me, that's for sure, but I can see why people love it!
Huge buds! The high was decent as was the flavor; however it's not something I'd make a point to get again. Fun but nothing super over the top.

nice and fruity
Such and amazing weed! Really active high that had me bopping around. I was chatty 10 min after smoking. Eventually you get tired but it's very slow and chill, nothing debilitating. I could see this being great with friends. Worst thing is some intense munchies.
This is an amazing, light strain that has just the right funky flavor. The buds are bright and sticky and when they break open I get a whiff of gassy cheese, which is better than it sounds.
After about ten minutes I feel a completely uplifted high and I even feel a spark of creativity. With a cup of coffee and a joint of Jillybilly would be a great way to start any day!
Helps wake me up when I’m feeling drained. Keeps social interactions interesting without giving too much of a buzz. Definitely recommend!
Perfect balance for me. I like being functional during the day and this strain does the job. Perfect for the active and creative.
