Pennywise reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Pennywise.
I officially love this strain. This is the the first weed I’ve smoked in decades and the experience was magical. An instant euphoria hit me in minutes followed by this amazing calming effect. My whole body felt like a giant stone after only a few hits. I quickly grabbed me some VEGAN ass nachos and water and descended into my couch. I was couch locked for hours, giggling calmly and happily to myself. Also, immediately after smoking all the soreness and pain I have drifted away and was covered by this amazing body high, a calming buzz. When I started smoking it I had a huge migraine and within mere minutes I could feel the migraine recede to the back of my skull into nothingness. For the first time in years I had calmness and peace, pain free, and was filled with happiness. What an amazing strain.
Pennywise has helped ease so many of my migraines it is considered family❤ a no joke pain relief strain that has also helped with agonizing tooth pain. The taste at first considered boring. Something in between hay and lavender has turned into instant nostalgia of the intense comfort brought on when first using this flower. There is little to no stoned or high feeling, but level of pain relieving relaxation is strong. Until new user adjusts to this overwhelming body comfort it will induce sleep so heads up! Or really heads down (on your pillows), but expect almost immediate relief from pain. Was first CBD strain used and so effective it opened the door to my love of therefore continued exploration into the wonderful world of Cannabidiol❤
I recently decided to stop taking SSRI’s for anxiety due to awful side effects, and started researching CBD strains. I came across Pennywise and since I was reading “It” at the time, decided fate wanted me to try this stuff out.
Fate was bang on. Pennywise is a life saver for me. As a novice, the effects of the THC were noticeable at first, though not overwhelming. There’s a bit of a happy high, then the CBD takes over and all the anxiety and any pain melts away. While not being too heavy, the effects are relaxed and a feeling of being “satisfied”. Then a deep, untroubled sleep follows.
Can not recommend Pennywise enough for anxiety, pain, or just to simply relax after a stressful day.
I did not like this strain much..I've enjoyed Harlequin in the past being CBD rich but this hybrid feels like the rev of a sativa with heaviness behind the eyes; makes me feel like resting but there's an internal anxiety that's not enjoyable.
Pennywise is a nice high CBD strain with roughly a 1:1 ratio of CBD : THC. I believe it does lean toward indica, so it is more of a lazy day / late evening medicine than it is a morning pick-me-upper.
While it doesn't knock you out in the way that most non high CBD indicas do, I still don't partake of Pennywise in the mornings, as it does relax me a bit too much for my own good on days that I would prefer to be productive. However, it is almost the perfect strain for me to vaporize *right* after work, as it helps my muscles relax, my mind settle down, and yet keeps me functioning enough to take advantage of the remaining hours of the evening.
Very relaxing high. Slight headache with dehydration. Hungry 7/10
I have to say, I was completely blown away by Pennywise. It's a 1:1 cbd/thc coming in at around 7%, so I honestly wasn't expecting very much. I purchased it as a bit of an afterthought, wanting to sample a strain with high cbd content. Looks and smells great, and is really pleasant to smoke. The effects are really remarkable. It is energetic and uplifting in the manner of a lot of sativas, but whether it's due to the low thc content or the mitigating effect of cbd, it produced absolutely zero paranoia or anxiety. Quite the contrary in fact. I was happy, talkative and productive. Very social. Just a great strain for people that want to treat depression or fatigue, but are prone to anxiety. It's not intense, but for me that's not always a bad thing. I enjoyed that I was able to smoke quite a bit at a time and never feel too overwhelmed. Honestly, it's the sort of strain I'll probably buy in bulk to have on hand for everyday use. It's made me want to seek out other 1:1 ration strains.
I have usually tended toward THC high hybrids, but I heard that CBD is better for pain relief, so I decided to try it. That and it was one of the lowest priced strains at my local dispensary. I love it! The highs I’ve been having lately have been leading to deep, unsettling thought patterns. With Pennywise, I feel lighter, significantly less pain, and well functioning. This has to be my favorite strain so far. It’s the first one I’ve written a review on. :) I am happy to say, “We all float down here”.
