Patient Reported Positive Effects

Being a sativa, the head buzz produced by this strain is one to write home about. Coupled with the high THC amounts, new users are advised to use this train in moderation as the “high” can easily overwhelm one. The high starts gradually and feels like a slow drown into an unfamiliar abyss. For the first time it may be pretty much scary but gets interesting and even intriguing with time. The best part is that this feeling of euphoria comes with clear headedness and increased focus and clarity. As pressing thoughts begin to fade away you will experience a sense of relaxation and clarity that you have never experienced before at such levels. As for the body effects, this will be mildly stimulating. It is like a gentle massage that works from the top to the bottom of your body and moves in circular waves. Do not expect a couch-lock from this strain. Patients have reported the following positive effects after taking this strain:

• Happiness
• Excitement
• Relaxation
• Extreme euphoria
• Hunger

Patient Reported Negative Effects

Forum Cut Cookies is legendary for its high THC content. And like similar intoxicating strains, it’s bound to “cause an uproar” in your system. This is what is will look like if the high THC content gets the better of you:

1.   Red eyes: while the appearance can be unsightly, don’t worry much about this effect. THC causes blood capillaries in the eyes to dilate and expand so that more blood can flow to the eyes. When the THC is out of your system (in about four hours) this effect will wear off. So just stay put waiting for the milkfish white appearance to reappear. Meanwhile if you hate the negative attention that comes with this, consider donning a pair dark-colored of spectacles.

2.   Dry mouth: Any time you take cannabis expect your mouth to dry out a little bit. It is believed that cannabis inhibits the action of salivary glands which dry out and hence the mouth gets dry. Sucking on ice can prevent your mouth from getting sticky or getting foul breath.

3.   Headaches: This is also a common symptom with high THC strains. Drinking water while medicating on cannabis can help to relieve this symptom.

Patient Reported Rare Negative Effects

New patients are likely to take more cannabis than they can handle. When this happens the patient is likely to experience anxiety attacks or extreme paranoia. Should this happen, it is advisable to find a quiet place to lie down as you wait for the THC to clear from your system. In case you begin to throw up uncontrollably, a visit to the ER will be necessary to get your lost electrolytes replenished. Do not attempt to flush out the THC from your system using DIY techniques at home.

Terpene Profile

Forum Cut Cookies has the following terpenes in abundance:

• Myrcene

β-myrcene, is a monoterpene with an aroma that has been described as musky or earthy. A high myrcene level in cannabis contributes to a couch-lock effect which is classical for indica strains. Apart from cannabis, myrcene is also abundant in bay leaves, lemon grass, eucalyptus, and oil of hops. Myrcene lowers resistance at the blood brain barrier and increases the rate at which other cannabinoids are absorbed.

• Linalool

Linalool is a non-cyclic monoterpenoid with a floral relaxing aroma. Linalool boosts immunity and also helps to relieve stress and anxiety. Linalool is also a precursor for Vitamin E.

• Caryophyllene

Beta-caryophyllene is a sesquiterpene with an aroma that has been described as peppery or spicy. It has shown potential in the treatment of cancer. Given orally it also helps to relieve chronic pain.

• Borneol

Borneol has the aroma of camphor or mint. It lowers resistance at the blood brain barrier and increases the effectiveness of other terpenes and cannabinoids.
