Effects
Darkside OG has an uplifting head high that usually presents itself 15 minutes after the initial puff.
However, once it starts, a rush of euphoria quickly swarms and clears the mind. It creates space for pleasant thoughts, thus leaving users feeling happy.


After an hour or two, a light pressure around the temples begins to build. It first irons out creases in the forehead before ebbing down to the lower extremities.
Like a wave of relaxation, it breaks apart knots in the muscles that cause tightness. In its place, there is a soothing sensation that grows heavier by the minute.
Finding a comfortable spot would be essential to enjoying the strain as users will most likely fall asleep.
With that said, it is possible to use Darkside OG in the morning so long as it is taken in moderation.
The best time to use it, however, is after a stressful week or day. Its heavy-handed comedown comes in useful for a night of relaxation and deep sleep.

Flavors
Tantalizing the palate are Darkside OG’s citrus overtones of overripe lemons and freshly squeezed oranges topped by a hit of lime.
It could be quite harsh for some but is overall a delicacy to most users, especially when bringing out its floral undertones. Its aftertaste, on the other hand, is an unearthed pine.
Adverse reactions

The offshoots are inevitable but mild and manageable.
Staying hydrated by drinking water or electrolyte drinks will help maintain a degree of moisture, although it will come back after a few hours.
