Dream Girl

Dream Girl is a well-balanced hybrid that may just make you fall in love. Once glance at this strain’s genetics will help explain her romantic appeal — she’s a cross between uber-popular Blue Dream and classic favorite Girl Scout Cookies. These varieties unite to yield a rich, complex flavor and soothing, well-rounded effects. Dream Girl’s THC content has been measured at between 19% and 22%.

Dream Girl’s flowers stand out with a larger than average size and chunky, almost conical shapes. The structure of these buds shows a mostly indica influence, with small, wide leaves curling tightly inward to form a very dense core. These leaves themselves are a pale shade of sage green and are accented by vivid orange pistils and cloudy, sticky trichomes that make them very tough to break up by hand.

Once cured, buds of Dream Girl have a tart, berry aroma, likely passed on from fruity Blue Dream. A closer whiff, however, may also pick up on some toasted, biscuity notes. When it is ground up or cracked open, Dream Girl can emit more of a gamey, skunky odor. Burning these flowers yields a surprisingly smooth and light smoke that goes down easily. On the exhale, this smoke mixes fruity and earthy flavors.

Dream Girl tends to have a slow-moving high that may only become apparent some 10 to 15 minutes after it’s consumed. Consumers may eventually feel a headrush along with some facial tics like an increase in salivation or some flushing in the cheeks. Once these strange sensations die down, though, smokers are left with an upbeat, energetic feeling. They may also be privy to a newly activated way of thinking in which ideas seem to flow more rapidly than usual; this cerebral vibe may lend itself to everything from buzzy, giddy socializing to bouts of productivity on complicated analytical tasks. In some circumstances, Dream Girl’s mental properties may even manifest as a kind of trippy distortion of sensory stimuli; an uncanny feeling of time moving more slowly is also commonly reported.

After about an hour (or more quickly, if users increase their dosage), Dream Girl introduce weighty physical effects to balance out its soaring head high. A subtle trickle that originates in the neck may slowly spread down through the core, relaxing tense muscles and facilitating deep, easy breathing. While this body stone isn’t usually strong enough to render users dopey and mentally cloudy, it may outstrip some of their earlier motivation to get things done. As such, Dream Girl’s later stages are best reserved for quiet, laidback activities like board games or binge-watching. Because of its multifaceted effects, this strain is recommended for consumption beginning in the afternoon.

A versatile form of recreational entertainment, Dream Girl’s high can also be of use to medical cannabis patients. For one, its sense of cerebral engagement can allow those with attention deficit disorders to focus on one thing at a time. Additionally, its boosted mood may temporarily distract from the difficult symptoms of stress and depression. Physically speaking, this strain can lessen the severity of aches and pains, whether temporary or due to chronic conditions like COPD or lupus. Anti-inflammatory properties, meanwhile, may lessen the severity of discomforts like headaches and cramps. Because it brings a moderate risk or paranoid, disordered thinking, Dream Girl is not recommended for patients who are prone to panic or who have a low THC tolerance.

Unfortunately for prospective home growers, seeds of Dream Girl have not been cultivated for commercial sale. Instead, those looking to cultivate this strain should obtain clippings of mature plants from a trusted source. These clippings can be fostered as “clones” and may be grown indoors or outdoors in a hot, Mediterranean-like climate. Gardeners may need to trim back any wide, light-blocking fan leaves now and then in order to encourage the growth of any flowering nodes on the plants’ lower branches. Dream Girl flowers within about 8 to 9 weeks when grown indoors.

A solid all-around smoke for both indica and sativa lovers, Dream Girl’s wide-reaching appeal is clear. It offers a memorably fruity smoke to complement its effects.
