Maui Wowie reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Maui Wowie.
It made me sing my thoughts.
This is a great high. Opens the artistic portals in my brain.
My goodness, this one was just divine. Me and a friend smoked the Maui Wowie WCC Jeffrey 1.2 gram joint, and right off the bat, the smell was a powerful tropical fruity smell. West Coast Cure Jeffrey scent profiles are something else, you never have to pick out scents other than weed cause they’re right there. The taste of it when we smoked it was like a smoky pineapple with a bit of herbal. We continued talking the whole time, and I could feel it hitting but my brain could still keep up with everything that was going on. I was also very invested in this conversation. Once we finished it, we went looking for where we parked our car, but we couldn’t find it! It genuinely took us 30 minutes to find it, we had to do some detective work to retrace our steps. Also this was a 5 block area we were searching. This didn’t register to my brain as a stressful situation in the slightest, even though we did have to be home at a certain time, I was fully in the “DGAF” headspace. Long story short we were a bit late but it wasn’t a problem. Also since the smell isn’t strongly weedy we were able to get away with not taking precautions to not smell. Even as a sativa where your brain isn’t powered off, this shit still hit
Very, very, very energetic. Great to listen to music and watch views.
Sold as Indica dominant so pleasantly taken aback by the lift and buzz. Instead of laying back for a snooze I turned the vibes back on and put another log on the fire.
it’s has a really nice feeling i smoked two bowls and im chilling right now it’s really relaxing i’m about to go enjoy nature
After a few times smoking/vaping an industry friend’s high quality homegrown Maui Wowie cultivar, this is my favorite strain at the moment. Keep in mind, I’m more of a sativa guy. I smoke everything but I prefer weed that stimulates me and/or leaves me with a clear head for the most part, mostly to help with my adhd. This does a great job at that, unlike other 25+% thc dispensary Maui Wowie cultivars I’ve tried. The Most (dispensary) sativa leaning strains I get nowadays are totally hybridized even when labeled a “pure sativa”. To keep things simple, this is what I expect/wish a “sativa hybrid” to feel like - stimulated and energized, but relaxed and free of anxiety or racing thoughts. I feel euphoric, not drowsy, clearheaded and all while my mind is slowed to a reasonable pace.
The flavor of this bud is exceptional and leafly describes it well. Tropical and fruity, with floral notes.
My buddy gets to test his homegrows for free because his contract with the lab allows so I got to see the terp profile :) …
Myrcene - .52%
a-Pinene - .28%
Linalool - .09%
Limonene - .05%
Ocimene - .04%
This terp profile stumps me a little bit as far as effects, but not flavor. The myrcene contributes to the earthy fruity smell. The pinene gives the myrcene a smoother edge, adding more to the sweet flavor. Linalool, the floral terpene is a sneaky one: anything over .02% can make a huge difference in flavor in my experience. With that being said, the linalool rounds it all out with a light flowery sweetness. Limonene is lemony and citrusy, making a great contribution to the tropical fruit flavor. Ocimene is minty, but this small amount just “brightens” the rest of the scents.
The reason I’m confused about the effects is because myrcene generally has a noticeable sedative affect for me, and I don’t notice that at all. Alpha pinene seems to make the weed relaxed without sedation which makes sense. Linalool normally just saves me from any anxiety, but combined with myrcene it seems to add to the sedative effect. Limonene is generally more alert and energetic but there’s such a low amount. The .05% must be holding up the energetic side of things. I haven’t noticed anything specific from Ocimene yet but in my reading I found a source that said “Ocimene has shown to provide synergy (referring to a relaxing entourage effect) when combined with other terpenes, including alpha-pinene and myrcene.” Normally limonene and especially terpinolene are the terpenes I look to for energetic effects but they both tested low: .05 and .007 respectively.
All in all, epic strain. Testing in at 14.7% THC / 1.2% CBD, this takes a very high spot in my all time favorite strains. Amazing floral tropical fruit taste/smell and perfect ganja for a euphoric, but productive daytime smoke. If I could give people clones/seeds of this phenotype I would
I did a small bowl when I woke up.
And felt almost instantly energetic and focused with this Maui Wowie. Bought in Lansing MI/ was medical MJ. No tired at all. Just relaxed. Never had MJ like this before. Awesome.
