Squirt Strain Review 

If you read the name Squirt and thought about the popular sweet and sour citrus drink, you wouldn’t be too far off. The Squirt strain is one that has a similar taste, offering a very pleasant experience to anyone who smokes it. Its lineage can be traced back to parent strains Blueberry Muffins and Tangie. The resulting child strain has a moderately low THC content of 17% which makes it a good choice for both beginners and experienced consumers.

This weed has a Sativa/Indica ratio of 80/20. This would usually mean that it’s good for getting some work done but that isn’t entirely true with this cultivar. The dominant terpene in this marijuana is Caryophyllene. Based on this AskGrowers.com’s Squirt Strain review, we will go over the various aspects of the strain, including its effects, terpene profile, and flavor.

How Does It Taste?

If a sweet and pleasant-tasting strain is what you’re after, Squirt won’t disappoint you. It has a very fresh overall aroma as well as flavor, making it a good option for infusing into some edibles if you prefer to consume your marijuana that way. One toke of this cannabis will remind you of its namesake drink because of the citrusy hit you’ll get right away. There are hints of not only lemons but also sweet plums in the flavor profile. And to round things off, there are some sour undertones of grapefruit as well.

What Are Terpenes?

In any cannabis strain, the terpenes are associated with the aromas and flavors that are created. However, there are studies that suggest they can also enhance cannabinoid activity to provide better effects. That is why it is very important to find out which terpenes are present in your weed of choice.

In Squirt, there are four primary terpenes:

·         Caryophyllene

Caryophyllene often brings spicy and peppery notes to cannabis strains. Here, it brings some notes of grapefruit instead. This terpene also binds to the CB2 receptors in the human body. This aspect of the terpene has made it a popular choice as an ingredient in anti-inflammatory creams. This is the only known terpene that binds to receptors in the endocannabinoid system.

·         Myrcene

Other than adding more citrusy hints to the aroma and flavor, Myrcene also brings the sweetness of plums that is very noticeable in this strain. It has also been found to be helpful against inflammation and pain. Mangoes are high in Myrcene and it is suggested that having mangoes before consuming some cannabis can enhance the effects that you feel. If you like mangoes, you could try to see if that’s true.

·         Ocimene

Ocimene adds even more sweet notes of plums to Squirt, making it taste even sweeter. This terpene is often responsible for the sweetness in marijuana strains. In a study conducted in 2014, Ocimene that was derived from the Citrus Unshiu plant was found to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties.

·         Humulene

Humulene is known for bringing sweet and earthy notes to cannabis strains. It is naturally found in hops, sage, black pepper, etc. Humulene has been suggested to help with suppressing appetite which could help in weight loss applications.

Is It Good to Smoke?

We’ve established that Squirt has a very fruity flavor but what about its effects? Being sativa-dominant, one might think that it’s great for completing some work. However, it doesn’t work quite like that. Consumers report feeling a short burst of energy when they smoke the buds. This energy is accompanied by enhanced focus as well. This doesn’t last for a long time though. A hazy sensation takes over the body and mind shortly afterward, along with a sense of relaxation.

So, if you want some weed that tastes good and relaxes you without locking you to the couch, Squirt can provide a very good experience. The overall effects are pretty balanced which makes it a solid choice for pretty much any part of the day when you need to socialize and relax. Its mild effects and lower THC content also make it suited for use by beginners.

Squirt is also helpful for medical marijuana patients to treat some conditions like:

• Depression
• Fatigue
• Headaches
• Chronic Pain
• Loss of Appetite.

Where to Buy This Cannabis in the US

Squirt is bred by the Humboldt Seed Company and can be found in various dispensaries all over the US. You can search for it online as well in a state where marijuana consumption is legal. You can also find its seeds and grow some for yourself. It has a flowering time of 55-62 days and offers moderate yield when grown in ideal conditions.

Conclusion

So, for fans of sweet-tasting strains that have hints of sourness, Squirt is a great choice. It’s a weed that doesn’t contain too much THC and doesn’t have sedative properties. You can consume it at any time of the day, whether you are new to cannabis or have prior smoking experience. It’s great for consuming before a party where you want to socialize and relax for some time, a movie night, or just getting through a long day at work. Even though it has a lower THC content, it’s important to consume any new strain slowly and in small doses to see how it affects your body.
