California Orange is an old strain that has already made its mark and one that is quite popular for those who want something that could be used during daytime.

What we know about California Orange is that its origin is pretty much a mystery.

The only thing we know is that it originated from California and has the smell and taste of orange, which is how it got its name.

This is a balanced hybrid strain that is also known as C.O.B., Cali-O, Cali Orange, and California Orange Bud.

It was a good thing that it found its way to Amsterdam in the early 80s, otherwise it might have been eradicated during the war on drugs campaign during the Reagan administration in the USA.

Adverse reactions

In spite of the benefits California Orange gives, it does come with a couple of adverse reactions that you would just have to get used to.

Common with cannabis use is having dry mouth and dry eyes.

Another thing to know about is possibly feeling dizzy at the onset of the cerebral high before calming down and having a clear mind with heightened senses.

Possibly, you might also have a mild headache.

For those who are new, the onset of cerebral high might not only cause dizziness but also make one panic.

Unlikely, but possible, so the most important thing to remember in the use of cannabis, whether for recreational or medical reasons, is to stay on the conservative side.

Smoking too much might negate some of the benefits and cause more trouble than the fun and medical benefits it could have given you.
