A Barney's Farm cross of Thai and Jamaican landraces that lives up to its name. Sweet, herbal smoke and reliable, giggling good humor.
Laughing Buddha is a sativa cannabis strain, typically testing at 15-21% THC, descended from Thai. Consumers most often describe its effects as giggly, happy, and energetic. On the palate it tends toward herbal and sweet notes, which tracks with its dominant terpenes: myrcene and caryophyllene. Among the people who log what they are using it for, Laughing Buddha comes up most often around fatigue, depression, and stress, though that reflects what consumers report rather than any tested medical effect. The most commonly reported downsides are dry mouth, dry eyes, and paranoia, and a lower dose is the usual way to avoid them.
