Recreational Effects

Where do we start? If only that was the kind of cookies girl scouts sold, their causes would probably exceed all targets.

GSC has it all, and it has it in abundance. The supreme THC levels summon a euphoria that courses through your mind, body, and soul for seemingly forever, as your concept of time becomes increasingly murky and your sense of humor increasingly inclusive. If it all sounds a little psychedelic, it’s because it is. Not to mention GSC comes and goes, or rather comes and comes, in waves, carrying you from state to state, one moment having you giggle at a random video, the next one taking you somewhere deeper, to places of introspection and reflection, and your favourite forms of art and entertainment.

Stress, like time, will become a very vague and distant idea. While GSC can help people sleep due to its sedative properties, overdoing it can have a reverse effect and keep you up watching Netflix all night long.

The couch lock is strong with this one, with your body feeling like tickly jelly.

Medicinal Effects

As a continuation of the very last point, the body high is powerful, as is pretty much everything else in this strain. This lends itself very nicely to some medicinal benefits, such as relief from chronic pain, inflammation, cramps, muscle soreness and tension, as well as the looming sense of dread that often accompanies serious medical conditions.
