This weed strain is a knockout, if you can find it

Even with all the weed knowledge in the world, delectable names like the Tropic Honeyglue strain draw me in. Thankfully, this juicy wonder delivers on what its name promises. The Dewey Cannabis Co. strain created this flavor-packed variety with a gorgeous scent. This is all followed up by an effect that impressed even me, a person with hyper-specific weed needs.

Dewey Cannabis Co. created Tropic Honeyglue, which was first released somewhat exclusively to Washington state in May 2024. The variety crosses Papaya and Honeyglue. Papaya is a child of Mango, Citral #13, and Ice #2, a recipe that results in a peppery, mellow indica. As for Honeyglue, it combines Dirty Old SOG Super Silver Haze with the lesser-known child of Green Crack, Appalachia. All of these lineages converge in one stellar indica strain that leaves behind a lot to write home about.

Tropic Honeyglue strain appearance, smell, and taste

Take the marriage of Papaya and Honey in through the senses with a whiff of the beta-caryophyllene-heavy Tropic Honeyglue strain. The flower grows densely packed, with rock-hard nuggets complemented by green hues and bulbous buds. Orange-brown pistils bunch up throughout each nicely sized nugget.

I enjoyed two distinct layers of sweetness in the aromatics. Earthy papaya and ripened honeydew melon combine in a candied scent. This fragrance translated into the flavor that I experienced using a Storz & Bickel Volcano. That juicy fruit is front and center in the sweet, tropical flavor.

The experience of smelling and tasting Tropic Honeyglue is pleasurable, but only at the beginning of the ride. This variety offers a quintessential indica vibe from start to finish.

Effects of the Tropic Honeyglue strain

Tropic Honeyglue provides a well-rounded high that made me enthralled about having it regularly available at my local dispensary. The only thing that could make me happier about the ripe, tropical fruit flavor is the effects that calmed me down with no inclinations for anxiety.

Even those who can stay focused through a Granddaddy Purple high might find Tropic Honeyglue (at least this phenotype from Dewey Cannabis Co.) too sleepy for breakfast. The initial high had me sidetracked and chilled out, simply happy to be there. I lost focus, but this same blurriness helped my mind actually disengage its clench on reality. Truly mellowing out is not my strong suit, but Tropic Honeyglue helped.

I had a heavy eye and felt absolutely relaxed after enjoying a Tropic Honeyglue bowl in my Weeday bong. The little bit of sativa from the Honeyglue parentage was doused by the heavy indica moments delivered by this delightful weed variety.

Tropic Honeyglue is a cross of the Papaya and Honeydew cannabis varieties.

Fruit salad has nothing on Tropic Honeyglue

Many cannabis strains can help me unwind, but they often come with some anxiety or overwhelm. That is not the case with the Tropic Honeyglue strain, a hybrid of Papaya and Honeyglue that tastes sweet without being a hyped-up dessert strain. Rather than call on the Cookies lineage, this flower harkens back to more aged varieties like Fruity Pebbles and Juicy Fruit.
