It can bring on a lot of giggles with the euphoric high and offers a relaxing body high. Perfect for lazy days and/or good company just chillin’ out.
Runtz Weed Description
Runtz weed buds can range in colours including from lime green to various shades of purple and has a sweet flavour with hints of fruit and candy. It’s aroma can include something similar to berries (grapes is often described) with grassy notes in the nose.
While THC levels are not extremely high, one of the reasons for this strain’s popularity in it’s effects is due to the major terpene chemistry – which likely provide some of the very pleasing effects of smoking a Runtz joint. Although Runtz is considered “potent,” its not from the THC levels alone, but include the combination of the top three terpenes present. In order, the top three terpenes include:
- caryophyllene
- limonene
- linalool
The presence of these terpenes and in the percentage overall, also contribute to the appearance of Runtz bud. Linalool is frequently found in citrus and also the herb, lavender and provides the purple hues. In other applications, this terpene is known for giving complex berry tastes in beers it is sometimes found in. Linalool is also believed to enhance medical effects of marijuana when it is a major component.
Caryophyllene and linalool in combination such as it is in Runtz weed is what many claim gives this strain it’s unique and satisfying punch – yet in a smooth delivery.
Runtz Weed Effects
This strain is not typically a hard and fast hitter; rather it develops and envelops in your mind and then throughout your body – almost in a euphoric “lulling” way. At the front end, it feels comfortable and uplifting, and then the full relaxation later takes over your body. Because of this, it’s often used by those who are treating anxiety issues.
A “full relaxation” is the most common and significant description we hear (and know ourselves). A relaxation that is euphoric, brings on giggles, losing inhibitions, that gently slides into a feeling of comfort and may end up falling asleep in a beautiful way. It could be hours though before you fall asleep; Runtz can have long lasting effects. But before you fall asleep, you might want to have snacks on hand as this strain can also give you the munchies.

Because of it’s effects, and the fact it is potent but in a balanced way with it’s terpenes and THC, this strain has used to treat some ailments including
- Anxiety

Of course, as well as the benefits of it’s medical uses, you’ll appreciate the euphoric and frequently psychedelic nature of the experience.
