About Waiting Game

A cross of FPOG and MAC, Waiting Game is a sativa variety. The effects people mention most are feeling hungry, tingly and happy.

THC and potency

Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 12 flower samples tested between 2021 and 2023 came in at a median of 25.8% total THC (the middle half ranged from 22.7% to 26.7%). CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That puts it at the strong end of the market, so newer consumers should start low. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.

Aroma, flavour and terpenes

Its reported terpene profile is led by terpinolene, with caryophyllene and limonene. Terpinolene is known for fresh, herbal brightness with hints of pine and flowers, while caryophyllene adds black pepper and warm spice. Total terpene content measured a median of 2.2%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as mint, skunk and diesel.

Reported effects

Beyond feeling hungry, reviewers also mention feeling creative and talkative. Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with depression, eye pressure and anxiety. The side effects mentioned most are dry mouth. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
