History

After tinkering with several different blends, the Symbiotic Genetics seed bank have whipped up an absolute storm with this indulgent indica-dominant marijuana treat. Grape Milkshake (available in feminized seeds) lineage is a sublime mix of Cookies and Cream– a cup-winning blend of Starfighter and an unknown GSC pheno from the Exotic Genetix seeds company, the sweet and sedating indica strain, Purple Punch, and its fantastic fruity frappe taste is every flavour hunter’s fantasy. But unlike a regular smoothie, this sweet ‘n’ tasty delight also comes with potent THC-dominant effects!

Grape Milkshake by Gastown is an Indica weed strain that also makes its Sativa side known through its subtle uplifting, euphoric, and focused high. The high THC levels of this cannabis bud average approximately around 27%, resulting in effects that can be just the right strength for experienced users, while they may be a bit too intense for novice enthusiasts. Gastown Collective are premier cannabis breeders and producers. They are known as one of the most renowned growers in Canada for their great-quality strains. Meaning, Grape Milkshake carries great qualities in both effects and taste. The flavour of this marijuana plant is dominantly grape with a funky twist of wood and skunk notes.

Aroma and Flavour

Prepare your tastebuds for a creamy concoction of flavours you’ll wish you could slurp through a straw! Grape Milkshake flavour profile blends luxuriant vanilla ice cream notes with an explosion of sweet grape and sugary berry flavours, providing a delicious and dairy-free adventure for the gustatory system. Its aroma is equally sweet but also pungent, with an earthy kush base and whiffs of skunk and spicy hashish.

Several aromatic ingredients, appearing in varying concentrations, are responsible for this strain’s lip-smacking flavour. Grape Milkshake abundant terpenes include caryophyllene, humulene, and limonene, with myrcene compounds also playing a vital role in the recipe. Together, this creative blend of compounds also contributes to the strain’s psychoactive direction.

Effect

Just like sugary treats can trigger a dopamine rush and feelings of happiness and euphoria, Grape Milkshake effects are guaranteed to put a grin on your face if you can handle the strain’s high THC content. Immediately after its taste hits your lips, users will be transported to an uplifting, euphoric state where all worries seem inconsequential before feelings of full-bodied relaxation as its sugary high begins to wear off.

Although more common in sativa strains, as this is a very high THC, low CBD indica, it may even shake your sensory perception and trigger mild auditory and visual hallucinations in low tolerance users. Lab results have revealed Grape Milkshake THC content averages around 20-27%, so this late-night luxury should be savoured slowly and avoided during the day.

Medical Use

Testing has shown that in extract form, Grape Milkshake can possess extremely high THCA levels of up to 30+%. This lesser-known cannabinoid has many medical benefits but is especially prized as an anti-inflammatory agent. Cannabis grown from Grape Milkshake medical seeds is also high in humulene, caryophyllene, and THC, which all have a similar influence on the body, and patients with arthritis and those healing from physical injury may benefit most from this therapeutic action.

Everyone knows slimming shakes are a great way to lose weight, but those hoping to achieve the reverse may find Grape Milkshake medical benefits particularly useful. While its sweet flavour is undoubtedly delicious, its high THC levels can trigger the production of ghrelin – the hunger hormone that governs our eating habits. THCA also has anti-emetic properties, and, as such, this pheno’s powerful appetite-stimulating effects may be suitable for treating anorexia or symptoms of nausea.
