Laughing Buddha reviews

Laughing Buddha was, without question, the best strain I’ve ever smoked—at least 5–6 years ago. It was so good that friends visiting from out of town would make a trip to the dispensary specifically to buy some because they couldn’t find anything comparable back home in Canada. That said, the Laughing Buddha available today is not the same strain I fell in love with years ago. I understand that LB is a difficult and time-consuming plant to grow, and getting it right takes skill and patience. I’ve even heard that WA Growers stopped producing it because the cultivation process was too challenging and not profitable enough. My response to that would be simple: raise the price if you have to, but keep the quality high. Unfortunately, the last few versions of Laughing Buddha I’ve tried from different growers have been major disappointments. If you’re buying it today, just be aware that it may not live up to the legendary reputation it earned years ago. Back in its prime, I would have rated Laughing Buddha an easy 11/10—an A+++++ strain and my all-time favorite. Today, based on recent experiences, I’d give it no more than a 2/5. Growers: please do this strain justice. The original Laughing Buddha was something truly special.

I’m very much a Sativa lover and this disappointed me in that it did not act like a Sativa dominant. I enjoyed this strain but not in the ways I was expecting. It is widely reported as a 80/20 sativa dominant but the effects I got were more of a 60/40 or even 50/50 hybrid. Very uplifting at the start that rapidly changes into a deep relaxation and then into a sleepy state I couldn’t fight. This stuff made me sleep when I didn’t want to. So I gave it 5 stars for the effects because I very much enjoyed it but from now on I will be smoking this late into the evening or night and not as a wake and bake because I tried that but I wound up sleeping about an hour into my buzz. So just a warning for others if you want a true clear headed wake and bake effect go for Durban Poison, Jack Herer or Lemon Bean. But this is a great 60/40 experience but just don’t count on the uplifting effect to last very long.

Had in Damping in a bong so whichever strain they have packs one helluva punch. Long lasting too. Took off like a Rocket, partner was quite paranoid for 20 mins or so but the aggressive vibe bouncer they used to have caused that. I found it really buzzy, racy but creative ( started writing poetry), very wakey wakey (deffo not for sleeping!). After a while mellowed into great feeling high with clear head ( found my way back to hotel with no trouble in unfamiliar streets) and most important for me- really made music magic. It is slightly hard work if you just want to relax but if you want to be energised it is brilliant

Smell out of bag: first notes of sweetness, then herbal pepper. Reminded me of some sativa landrace strains, and is therefore a new favorite on my top 10 list (and I try 3 or 4 strains a month over the past 6 months). Excellent effects that strike me as meant for: a good of happiness, a some lightheartedness, and the giggles. While it is energizing, it is also lighthearted. Thus, I am not so focused on work while on it, and so I would take it late afternoon to unwind.

I would rate this 10/10. the first day i smoke this shit i was scared of how good it was. I genuinely couldn’t eat my KFC becouse my teeth felt completely soft and squishy. Would not recommend for amateur smokers this one fucks me and my friend completely if a 0.5 one of the most crazy ones so far

Had this from a bong, about 6 hits. i was with the girlfriend and I started laughing uncontrollably,. my vision went stretched out and I genuinely could not stop laughing, it was terrifying. then my heart started pumping quite literally five times a second, I thought with my whole heart that I was going to die. I felt like my movement was constricted to my body and I couldn't access the space around me, I felt as though I was going to lose control of my brain, so much so that I wouldn't stand on my balcony. it wasn't a panic attack, ive had numerous. it also wasn't just a bad high, ive been smoking for eight years and have experienced every kind of high there is, smoked about 200 strains over the years, if not more. will try again tonight but as of right now, I wouldn't recommend this strain if you struggle with feeling out of control.

A favorite of mine! Perfect for daytime use and early evening. A lovely euphoric feeling that puts a smile on my face. As it wears off there's a relaxing feel without feeling tired. I've used this with other strains and it mixes so well.

One of my favorite strains! Always good vibes, I find myself just smiling and generally in an uplifted happy mood.
