If slow and steady wins the race , then Grape Crush is the strain to help you slow down .

It ’ s February , I ’ m out of life-giving CBD , and have about two high-energy hours to spare in a typical 16-hour day , so I proceed with caution . Even something as simple as calmly cutting open an Amazon box rather than viciously tearing through tape and cardboard is a move noted for its kilojoule savings . As I push toward the finish line of this pandemic winter and into a new year of discontent , I ’ m practising the art of slowing down and it ’ s been incredibly therapeutic . You may have heard the cannabis strain Grape Crush ( like crushed grapes ) is best consumed after a certain hour . Toke it after a long day at the home office , they say . Perfect for a late-night smoke , they say . Don ’ t plan on doing anything , they say . So I do just the opposite . Rather than blow through all my energy in the morning , I ’ m attempting to disperse it throughout the day with the help of an indica-dominant Grape Crush gummy . I consume my DIY snail-shaped edible with breakfast and think of the slow but relentless tortoise in the old fable , The Tortoise and the Hare . Grape Crush is the answer to unwanted frenzy , even ( or especially ) at home .

Heavy and cerebral at the same time with 12 percent THC , a small dose of Grape Crush in the morning will have you progress through the day more deliberately , with heavy eyelids and a buoyant mind . As it feels like a weighted hoodie , Grape Crush is also a great escape for individuals who suffer from what the strain can prevent : anxiety and insomnia . In high doses , the tranquillizing and euphoric effects of Grape Crush can linger for up to 12 hours . With a penchant for cooler climates , Grape Crush will thrive outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere , even boasting purple leaves as the temperature drops . Flowering at eight to nine weeks , the strain typically yields up to 17 ounces of crystal buds once mature , whether it ’ s grown indoors or outside . Grape Crush exhibits a sweet berry flavor , acquired from its Blueberry parents and a bittersweet aroma that has been compared to sour grapes . Despite what “ they ” say , we can enjoy Grape Crush any time of day . As the tortoise teaches us , the finish line is ours when we decide to slow down . What ’ s the rush ? Get there by strolling with Grape Crush .
