Smooth smoke, decent taste, and no aftertaste.
Functional high that allowed me to do what I needed to but I was left with an overall sense of disillusionment that was really odd. Didn't do anything out of the ordinary other than smoke a new strain. Otherwise a good smoke.
Hands down best CBD rich variety I have tried so far. The uses are limitless, as are it's range of effects. It is beautiful for managing anxiety and depression without added drowsiness or paranoia. As a bonus I almost always receive a noteworthy boost of energy from Harlequin, making it a great variety when you're lacking motivation to get up and move. The mental effects of Harlequin are usually tranquil and soothing providing me releif from mood and anxiety dissorders as well as fueling creativity and enthusiasm with a very mellow and manageable euphoric energy. The anti-inflammatory properties are also something to take note of, I've found it a God-send for managing IBS symptoms and stomach pain. Flower flavors vary from grower to grower but I usually notice an earthy fruity sweetness, like a musky sour citrus inscense. Harlequin is easily top five for varieties with significant medical value in my book, a very special plant.
Fantastic for instantly curing anxiety, boosting my mood and increasing my productivity at work.

I honestly can not say enough good things about this strain. I suffer from anxiety and became a patient to see if marijuana could help some of my symptoms. I figured if I could control what I smoked, I would be able to find something that worked for me. Unfortunately over the last month, every strain I tried, no matter how low the THC content, would cause immense panic attacks and overall terrible experiences. Really disappointing. I made one last run to a dispensary to buy a high CBD strain to try, before I retired my recommendation and sought other options. Holy hell, this is the strain for me. I have almost NO anxiety when I smoke this. I can talk, think clearly, be in public, and many other things that are just unmanageable for me when I smoke high THC strains. The high isn't too overwhelming, but it's still there. I just feel uplifted, relaxed, but fully functional. I even notice that some of the side effects of THC that can throw me into a full fledged panic attack (i.e. the racing heartbeat feeling) doesn't bother me when I smoke this strain. The only downside is sometimes I get wicked munchies. If you're looking for a blow your mind other dimension high, this strain is not for you. But if you're looking to put your anxiety at ease while still being able to fully function, look up a dispensary and do. not. hesitate. You will not regret it.

Just as described, no euphoria. Charlott's Web was my favorite until I tried Harlequin today. Initially noticeable to me was the wonderful citrus and earth aroma. It is a perfectly a balanced Sativa dominant in that if you wanted to go to sleep or be ready for a business meeting you afterwards you could. By far my new favorite.
I started smoking when I was 14 and had to stop when 22 due to underlying mental-health problems (bipolar and suffer from extreme panic attacks which often result in hospitalization). I've tried smoking multiple times since 22 (I'm now 34) but the result was always the same: 1-2 hrs in the bathtub thinking I was dying and praying for it to stop.
I wen't out of my way to try Harlequin once I heard about it, and the results have been surprising. Not only do I not suffer from panic attacks from smoking it, but I'm also able to cope with other anxiety much easier as well. I also love the effect that it has on my neck and back pain; It doesn't actually go away, yet your able to COMPLETELY forget about it. So if you think about it you see that it is still there, but moments later something distracts you and your able to go another 30+ minutes without noticing it at all, which in my book is just as well as making it go away.
Also, the effects are very nice. I was half expecting to not really get stoned due to other comments, but I found that it was stony enough to be fun yet very manageable - to the point that I was fine in 7/11 while getting snacks (I also suffer from social anxiety, especially when self-conscious.)
I will most likely smoke this for a great while, where before trying it I never would have though I'd be able to enjoy smoking again.
After years of not smoking. I have begun the cannabis walk again with edibles and vaping and now joints. I had absolutely no Idea of CBD years ago. I have started enjoying the medicinal qualities of SATIVA. Hawaiin Pineapple, Lambs Bread, Medi-haze, but in particular Harlequin, it reminds of the good old pot I used to smoke as a teenager we would laugh get energetic think and be able to function and everything. #backintheday when I started on Harlequin I vaped and waited to see how it would affect me. Then I rolled a joint and my energy increased my appetite suppressed and I had absolutely no anxiety or paranoia. I went to sleep after staying awake a few hours and woke up relaxed. This strain of "medicine" and to me this is medicine, I have been a paranoid anxiety sufferer for years having panic attacks at any time, also making me a social recluse, well actually I don't mind being reclusive. But this is helping my anxiety. It feels great and last for hours. Also key is I don't feel my pain in my back leg or knee. My mind rest and I think clearly and profoundly. This is great for anxiety.
Peace
Very clear headed high, can definitely go about your day and feel enlightened
