Gary Payton

Named for the basketball Hall of Famer, Gary Payton is a Cookies and Powerzzzup Genetics collaboration. Kenny Dumetz of Powerzzzup is credited with combining The Y with Snowman. Our record has no THC figure; outside sources put the typical reading in the low 20s.

The terpene panel is led by caryophyllene at 0.65%, followed by limonene at 0.41%, linalool at 0.22% and pinene at 0.22%. Flavor tags are piney, fruity, nutty, earthy and sweet, and outside reviewers score apricot and pepper very high, with lavender behind them. In our data the effects run aroused, creative, euphoric, focused, giggly, happy, hungry, relaxed and sleepy.

Outside reviewers rank giggly and relaxed first and describe an even-keeled experience. Anxiety is a minor reported downside. Growers describe it as difficult to cultivate.

It suits relaxed socializing, where laughter and calm arrive together and nobody has to hurry. Reviewers also single out the colorful, flavorful flower, which tends to make it a showpiece jar.
