Rotten Rainbow is a true 50/50 hybrid, born from the cross of Pinepaya and Rainbow Sherbet #11. Its name nods to the storied parentage and to the striking look it wears. The buds are long and fluffy, emerald-green and pepper-shaped in form, with dark purple leaves, thick red-orange pistils, and a heavy frost of purple crystal trichomes coated in a sticky resin.
Breaking apart the flowers releases a perfume of sweet papaya and tropical fruit, carried by a sharp skunky edge that grows more pronounced as the nugs burn. The flavor follows suit, delivering a lighter blend of sugary fruit and papaya, accented by citrus brightness and a hint of spicy diesel.
The onset is gradual, lifting the mood into a hazy, happy lift before tranquility settles in and focus fades into relaxed contentment. With long-lasting effects and typical THC in the 20 to 21 percent range, Rotten Rainbow is often explored for relieving chronic stress or anxiety, depression or mood swings, as well as chronic pain and headaches or migraines.
