How To Find It
If you are interested in trying out Zskittlez and you are a qualified medical marijuana patient in Florida, you can find it in a few different Medical Marijuana Treatment Centers (MMTCs). The following MMTC’s have Zskittlez products available for purchase:
The Flowery: Zskittlez Whole Flower. Zskittlez Juniors, Zskittlez Pre-Rolls.
Trulieve: Zskittlez TruFlower, Skittles Vape Cartridge.
Lineage
The strain Zskittlez was developed by the 3rd Gen Family and Terp Hogz by crossing the strains Grape God x Grapefruit.
Potency
Typically, the Zskittlez strain is not one that produces high levels of THC. The percentage of THC tends to be between 15%-20%.
Looks
Each phenotype of Zskittlez will have a different appearance. The Indica leaning plant usually produces thick and chunky flowers in a variety of different greens and purples. It has vibrant amber pistils (or hairs) throughout it and is coated in cloudy white trichomes.
Smell
The smell of the flower is usually very unique as long as it is cured correctly. The curing process occurs after the plants are chopped down for harvest to dry out the flowers. During this time, the terpene profile develops even more creating the strong smell and taste of strains.
Zkittlez offers a mixture of aromas and flavors that stands out in comparison to other popular strains. When properly cured, the flowers give off a sweet and sour smell, combining berry and citrus with a lingering skunky tang.
Flavor
When used in a joint or glass pipe, the burned flowers will produce smooth and easily-inhaled smoke. The taste is fruity and grape-like on the exhale that has a crisp tropical aftertaste that lingers long after it is smoked.
Terpene Profile
Terpenes are the essential oils produced by many different species of plants – including cannabis! Each strain of cannabis has a unique terpene profile that interacts with the plants cannabinoids and flavonoids to produce strain-specific effects.
The main three terpenes present in Zskittlez are:
Beta-Caryophyllene: Caryophyllene gives off a spicy peppery scent and can be found in black pepper, basil, rosemary, and oregano. This is the only terpene that binds to cannabinoid receptors making it a potent analgesic and anxiolytic agent. Recent research has also demonstrated its potential to treat alcohol withdrawal symptoms.
Humulene: Humulene is a fairly common terpene that is responsible for giving the plant its distinct spicy, herbaceous, and subtly floral bouquet of aromas. Research has proven it to be an effective anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and appetite suppressant.
Linalool: This terpene smells of lavender and offers many benefits such as being an analgesic, anxiolytic, anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, anti-epileptic, antipsychotic, and a potential sedative.
Effects
Due to each person’s unique endocannabinoid system (ECS), the effects of Zskittlez will be different for everyone. Since it has the tendency to act fast and strong, it might not be the best idea for a new consumer to try this strain. Typically, Zskittlez provides a range of effects that span from happy to focused and at peace.
Users usually feel the effects in a cerebral buzz at first then are met with a calming high that leaves them focused, alert, happy, and relaxed. Because of its effects, Zskittlez is typically best for end-of-the-day sessions.
The following can be expected after using Zskittlez products:
POSITIVE EFFECTS
Focused
Relaxed
Social
Creative
Euphoric
Sleepy
NEGATIVE EFFECTS
Dry Eyes
Dry Mouth

Medical Uses
While each patient will react to Zskittlez differently, it can have a few applications for medical purposes. The strain’s initial focused mental properties can help those suffering from attention deficit disorders. As relaxation takes over the body, this strain can temporarily soothe the symptoms of stress, depression, and anxiety.
Relief from both chronic pain and minor, everyday irritation can also be expected when using this strain. Zkittlez can cause an increase in appetite, potentially helping those who have lost their hunger to disease or to treatments like chemotherapy. Those who are prone to panic or who have a low tolerance to THC should consume Zskittlez with caution.
