    DeePuff Pick Reason

    Vortex earns its DeePuff fit from 18% THC, a chill evening profile led by Myrcene, and effects that lean brighter and more active.

    Stack Guidance
    Stacks with
    Citrus terpene strains for lift
    Light body strains for balance
    Avoid stacking
    Very sedating indicas if you need momentum
    Unknown edibles until you know tolerance

    Vortex by Subcool's The Dank is a 80/20 sativa-dominant strain whose potency will pull you into a whirling mass of euphoria like a cosmic riptide. Its celestial parents Space Queen and Apollo 13 pass on a sweet and sour lemon aroma accented by notes of tropical mango, while its inherited effects can range from racy and energetic to heavy and disorienting. The staggering THC content of Vortex has won this sativa several awards including _High Times'_ Best Sativa in 2010 and the _High Times_"Top 10" in 2007.

    What are Terpenes?

    Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in cannabis that contribute to each strain's unique smell, taste, and effects. They work synergistically with cannabinoids in what's known as the "entourage effect" to enhance or modify the overall experience.
