Although this strain is not strong on body effects that you can feel immediately because of the high CBD content, I get a strong sense that it is helping me heal from inflammation over time. It does take quite a bit to bring on the subtle mind and body effects, which feel pleasant but not overbearing and provide some pain relief, but it was not a good choice for migraine relief. It did very little to relieve my migraine pain, and simply took the edge off rather than making it go away. It also made me feel incredibly sleepy and while sleeping I had a sensation of feeling my head pulse and pound from my migraine for a bit while in a semi conscious state. It was an insight into the way my migraines work because of the primal sort of awareness I had of my own body while I was high. I plan to continue to take this medicine because I am hoping it will help me keep my migraines in check as a preventative measure, but not a treatment for a flare up. As a side note, I didn't know the healing effects of CBD until I started researching it on PubMed and saw all of the studies verifying that CBD helps your body tremendously. I am taking this medicine as a preventative measure, and to feel an overall wellness effect. I could swear that its kept my appetite in check, and that I am losing weight because my body is less inflamed and overall happier since I started taking small puffs of this once a day.

A wonderful day-time bud, especially if you suffer from any kind of chronic pain yet need to get some creative/intellectual/physical work done. The variant I purchased was titled "Harly OG," and I don't know whether any of its characteristics differ from those with the more typical "Harlequin" labels out there, but it certainly gets the job done! I wouldn't call this strain a strict Sativa, though; it feels a lot more like a hybrid, given that its Sativa THC percentage is so low, and its high CBD content alleviates anxiety issues often caused by strong Sativa strains. My only gripe is that this strain does leave you a little foggy and head-heavy, so if you're planning to take Harlequin before work, it may slow you down bit ( this is the only reason I'm giving this strain 4 stars instead of 5). All in all, a great CBD-rich strain, either used alone or--my favorite--mixed with a pure night-time, pain-free, sleepyhead indica.

I absolutely love this strain. I searched all over to find it and try it out after reading all the reviews I'd seen about it. I suffered a back injury about 14 years ago. I have blown discs, scoliosis, fusion of my lumbar vertebrae, and SI joint instability along with arthritis, and I was just recently told I may actually have rheumatoid arthritis, all of this in my lower back. I'm only 36. I am typically a very active person. Hiking, running, etc. In the last few years, the pain has worsened and taken these things away from me. I have began to develop anxiety and depression with wondering how I am supposed to live with such debilitating pain. Does this strain take away all of my pain? No. Nothing will ever take it all away. But does it take enough of it away for me to take my dogs on walks or keep up with my two kids? Yes. It absolutely does. I have cried tears of joy over this amazing strain. Thank you to the creators of this wonderful strain.

A friend of mine grew this for some cancer patients he knew. They unfortunately all died within months of each other and he had a few pounds left over so knowing I was suffering from poverty brought on by disability, spinal cord injuries, PTSD, clinical depression, and that never ending pain from my back he gifted me a sizable portion. It was such a blessing. It smokes smooth it doesn't smell up the place like a pine forest stuck in a skunks butt, and I can function on it. It gets me just high enough, smooths out the pain issues so I can function without aggravation and relaxes me when I start to have a panic attack. Truly a wonderful medicine. Not for stoner bros looking to chill and get wicked fried. This is an adult weed like a fine wine that is made to be savored and pleasing not a bottle of Ripple to get you ripped.

Ok. The Harlequin I have is from Ganja Goddess and was tested out at 7.3% thca and 10.7% CBD. If it as listed on Leafly is 75% sativa dominant, in my strain it is more strongly indica. So I had just 2 hits from a rolled joint ( I'm in the process of calibrating what's what for me) because previously I have had Schrom, Hawaiian dreams and some indica hybrids that I don't know as they were 2 years old and the label came off the cannister. Harlequin on 2 longish drags produced a high from 4:30 in the afternoon to about 9:30. You can basically do what you want with Harlequin unlike some strains that control me like Hawaiian Dream (4% thca;14%cbd smoked waay too much) You can go spacey like to the other side of the universe stuff or watch TV while talking to yourself.. I practiced Qi Gong for what seemed like an hour with my eyes closed lying on a bed. I didn't really get a big sense of pain relief however, more like forgetting about it but nothing like nitrous oxide for example where your brain simply can't focus on pain. With Harlequin it is still there just not as noticeable. I have had different strains that effect my sense of time either by making time quicken or slow. With Harlequin you do something for what seems like an hour but if you check the time, only a few minutes have passed. Harlequin slows down time. Also no real appetite surge. Not sleepy, very cerebral kind of high. Just 2 hits. No idea what planet I'd go to on more but I'm probably too new to weed after many years without to have much tolerance to it which I'm trying to develop. My favorite strain so far, many more to try.

Great for anxiety! I can't handle THC due to it causing massive paranoia and anxiety for me. A few years ago I developed moderate to severe anxiety and depersonalization which can be very terrifying. It was hard for me to go out in public or hang out with friends sue to the anxiety. I just started vaping this strain after trying Cannatonic and Harlequin beats it for anxiety easily. As soon as I start to feel an anxiety attack come on, and I feel like I don't have control over my body, I vape some of this and within minutes I'm relaxed and back to feeling like me. This works faster than any conventional medication and is so much safer to use. if you have anxiety or panic attacks, please try this strain. It's a life saver!

This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for!!!! Excellent pain relief and a wonderful body high from the neck down! No couch-lock, no la-la land (although that's great sometimes), no paranoia. Great earthy flavor but not too strong. This is real medicine for people who want relief while keeping their head on straight and want to be productive or carry a lucid conversation without getting stuck on the amazing sound and meaning of the word "quench". Absolutely my new go-to!

Harlequin is high in CBD which is fantastic, but I personally sometimes don't mix too well with sativa-dominant strains. For the first 30 minutes Harlequin has a head high that can sometimes spin me into my anxiety, but once it moves into the body high, it's actually great. I have also wondered if cannabis is sometimes meant to help us dive down into some of our fear/anxiety to heal it. In any case, there's always a little "processing" for me at the start with Harlequin. Not my first choice high CBD strain, but I'll smoke it if it's around.
