This strain has a strong diesel aroma that kicks your nose on first impact. Once you get past the relatively pungent odor, you’ll notice some sweetness and spiciness lingering afterward. The strength of the odor tells you the quality of your buds.
Gary Payton weed tastes much like it smells. You can expect a strong diesel taste at first, and then you’ll notice the subtler sweet and spicy undertones as you let the smoke linger in your mouth. Again, this strain is strong and hits hard at first, so it’s best for experienced users.
The dominant terpene in Gary Payton weed is caryophyllene, which has a spicy and floral scent to it. This terpene is also highly present in black pepper and basil, which is why this weed strain has such a strong aroma. Secondary terpenes include limonene (found in citrus) and linalool (found in lavender).
The Sativa side of this strain will hit you first, so you’ll feel euphoric and giddy as soon as the THC enters your system. It can feel like a rush at first, then it starts to settle into a full-body tingle. Although it’s a 50/50 hybrid, you won’t notice too much from the Indica side of this strain. Yes, you’ll feel relaxed, but you’ll feel more happy and energetic than anything else. Overall, Gary Payton weed is ideal for those with anxiety and depression. It can also help alleviate stress, but make sure you know what to expect before taking this strain as a stress reliever.
