Origin
Reclining Buddha is a three-way indica built from Big Skunk Korean crossed with Super Skunk and Holland's Hope. All three parents are Skunk-heavy, which is why it reads so pungent. It has two descendants on file. The name promises calm; the pungency and the giggly effect are what actually turn up.

About
Reclining Buddha sounds serene and plays like a room full of giggles.
It is a three-Skunk cross, Big Skunk Korean with Holland's Hope and Super Skunk, an 80 percent indica. The relaxation is real, but the reviewer data is dominated by giggly, happy, uplifted readings. The name suggests stillness; the effect is more social.
Serene name, silly effect.
What to Expect
Reclining Buddha is deeply relaxing, but not quietly so. Leafly's reviewers put relaxed and happy level at the top, both at 81 percent of a solid sample, with giggly at 72 and uplifted and euphoric readings behind. The weighted data ranks the deep relaxation and the giggles about equally.
Dry mouth is low in the raw data near 18 percent, but the weighted data flags a headache reading very high, one of the worst in this run. Keep the dose moderate, especially if you are headache-prone.
Flavor and Aroma
Reclining Buddha smells pungent and skunky with lemon and citrus over earth. The recorded flavor is lighter: citrus and berry with a flowery note. The three-Skunk lineage is loud in the smell, less so in the taste.
Terpenes Explained
Reclining Buddha has no measured terpene data, and only Humulene, Camphene and Limonene are named.
Nothing is quantified, so the lemon-and-skunk smell is a nose call. Three Skunk parents make a pungent result likely regardless. A jar with a genuinely sharp, skunky-citrus character is the closest match to the description.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Reclining Buddha THC is reported around 23 percent, with no clean lab sample in our data. It is a strong indica by its sources. CBD is a trace, with a small CBC reading also on file.
Reclining Buddha tests around 23 percent, so the giggly relaxation still comes with a strong-strain dose.
