Bright Moments

Bright Moments is a flavorful hybrid strain with an even balance between indica and sativa influences. Created by Dutch breeders Gage Green Group, the strain combines the genetics of their own Grape Stomper and its derivative Grape Stomper OG. Bright Moments offers well-rounded effects and a dynamic grape flavor. Its THC content ranges from 18% to 26%.

Flowers of Bright Moments are marked by a medium size and a tapered, spadelike formation. The internal structure of these buds leans more indica, with small leaves that twist tightly inward to form a solid center. These leaves themselves are a pale shade of sea green and are made even paler by the presence of translucent white trichomes. Finally, a few curly brown pistils wind their way through Bright Moments’ dense buds.

Thanks to a double dose of fruity Grape Stomper in their background, Bright Moments’ flowers give off the unmistakable aroma of grape. A closer inspection may also detect some floral, herbal hints. Grinding up these nuggets, meanwhile, may give off more of a rich, earthy odor. When Bright Moments is combusted in a pipe or a joint, it burns with a pleasantly smooth, light smoke that’s easy on the lungs. On the exhale, this smoke has a bright grape flavor.

The high from Bright Moments begins to set in soon after its smoke is consumed. At first, the strain exercises a subtle headrush that comes with strange tics like a tingle in the forehead and temples or some flushing in the cheeks. Once these sensations become more familiar, smokers may find that their thoughts have taken on a more intense, cerebral cast. Concepts (or even words or objects) that wouldn’t otherwise hold any interest can suddenly become fascinating. Similarly, consumers can jump from one thought to the next in a freely-associative manner. All this mental stimulation can be a useful means for getting work done on detailed analytical tasks; it may also lift one’s usual inhibitions on creativity, facilitating brainstorms or artistic projects. Alternatively, Bright Moments can simply provide a steady background buzz that makes everyday tasks like laundry slightly more palatable.

Within an hour or so, Bright Moments starts to exert potent physical effects. Ripples of relaxation may start to roll down the spine and outward through the core and limbs. At first, this body stone isn’t strong enough to incapacitate users; increase intake, however, can cause them to melt into their immediate surroundings. Fortunately, Bright Moments’ initial cerebral mood persists for the duration of the high. As such, the strain’s unique combination of mental and physical properties makes it a good way to enjoy activities requiring full brain-body coordination — including exercise, dancing, and even sex under the right conditions. Because of its eventual decline into sedation, Bright Moments is best enjoyed starting in late afternoon or early evening.

A versatile hybrid for recreational use, Bright Moments may have application for medical cannabis patients as well. Its thought-provoking onset can help those with attention deficit disorders to focus on one task a time. Its ability to improve mood may also make the symptoms of stress and depression somewhat more tolerable. Physically speaking, Bright Moments may alleviate all kinds of aches and pains, whether chronic and disease-related or due to minor inflammation. The bud’s tendency to induce the munchies may even serve as an appetite stimulant for those dealing with digestive issues or cachexia. Because the feeling of mindrace can transform into paranoia in the wrong set and setting, though, Bright Moments is not recommended for patients who are prone to panic.

Unfortunately for those looking to cultivate this strain on their own, seeds of Bright Moments are not available for sale online. Instead, prospective home growers should seek out clippings from mature, healthy plants of the strain. These can be fostered as clones and can be successfully grown indoors or outdoors in a hot, humid climate. Plants can be fairly tall and may require indoor gardeners to keep their height manageable with regular trimming. Bright Moments flowers within 8 to 9 weeks when grown indoors and offers a high output of flowers come harvest time.

An enjoyable smoke whether you’re alone or sharing with others, Bright Moments is the perfect way to wind down at the end of the day.
