Pennywise reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Pennywise.
This is a wonderful strain and depending on where you get it from, is a beautiful flower... the source that I received my Pennywise from I consider a lower quality source (you get what you pay for) The taste of this flower is woody and deep with hints of pepper... slightly harsh on the soft palate (mine was dry) coughing(coughy):5/10....This flower gives an almost instantaneous indica "slump" feeling.. Great for just chilling or doing repetitive and light study type tasks... as long as you don't have a deadline😉
My nickname for this strain is "half&half" referring to the typical THC/CBD ratio. My first taste of Pennywise was 14% thc and 10% cbd. It was the most balanced high I'd ever felt.
Today, a flirty jar of Pennywise caught my eye. The ratio is about 6% thc and 8% cbd. It is just as wonderfully balanced as my first exposure. The cbd helps a lot for chronic pain, and adds a relaxed feel to the high. Lower thc is also good for people who have paranoia associated with smoking cannabis.
For sure this strain is in my top 5 favorites. Always worth a try.
Or not, more for me.
I'm always sad to hear it's sold out.
High strain of CBD/THC grade of bud that is excellent for relaxation, upset stomachs, headaches, monthly symptoms due to periods, etc. I usually blend it with a higher THC strain to give a mellow effect in the evenings or when I need to chill out. I always try to keep a reverse of this blend because, it sells out fast at Canntrust.
I struggle with anxiety and panic attacks so I have to be super careful with THC cuz it usually it just makes me go mental. Pennywise makes me feel relaxed without racing thoughts, and a heavy head. I can still process thoughts and focus. Very good strain.
Pennywise is THE ideal strain for managing day time pain. It's CBD to THC ratio is more balanced that other strains with a slightly higher CBD%. By itself, PW will gently ease low to moderate pain levels of 1 to maybe 5, if you're familiar with the happy/sad pain chart. Combine a high CBD editable, like the gold foiled taffy with upwards of 80mg CBD, to help severe or chronic pain levels of 6 or higher . If your goal is pain management without lethargy, Pennywise may just be your marijuana soul mate, too.
P.S. Figuring out what about Pennywise works for me has increased my understanding of my own chemistry and how to identify other strains to try. I now know to look for strains with similar 1:1 ratios if I don't want to feel sleepy. If this sounds like something you want to try there are two other strains I've tried with similar ratios: Charlotte's Web and Nebula. Though I find Pennywise to be the most effective with the least amount of crash.
Thank you to the growers of this awesome strain!

Pennywise is an amazing strain to help with inducing munchies, relieving body aches, headaches, and over all the sense of feeling ill. Nice, and relaxing body high, with a clarifying mind high. I would really recommend Pennywise if you have the flu, food poisoning, a cold or just anything causing you to feel blue.
I am new to cannabis. That being said this is my favorite strain. It can be hard to find however.
With the CBD and low THC content it strikes a good balance of curbing anxiety and restlessness and making me feel .... well ... just damn good ! What I love is how clear headed I can be. Second only to something like " Canna Tsu " for how clear my head is. This does put that gentle fog over your head that allows you to function but i still feel is better suited for night time.
I get the worst menstrual cramps at night. 1-2 hits of pennywise helps me relax with a great night sleep. Wicked dry mouth tho.
