Growing Info
Fans of Roald Dahl’s hugely popular children’s book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, or the classic 1971 movie starring Gene Wilder, may recognize this strain’s name, Snozzberry. (Even this strain’s breeders, Alphakronik Genes, categorize the Snozzberry strain as part of its “Wonka” series on its website).
There are several less than pleasant theories about the origins of the word Snozzberry, one being that “schnoz” is slang for nose in the U.K., so you can imagine what a Snozzberry might be if this is what Dahl meant.
We’re happy to report that the Snozzberry strain is much more pleasant than that theory suggests it might be. Read on to learn more about the Snozzberry strain in our comprehensive review.

As Snozzberry has calming and uplifting effects, it may help people with mood disorders such as anxiety and depression.
Possible Side Effects of the Snozzberry Strain
Some may experience mild side effects such as cottonmouth or dry eyes. However, those who overconsume may experience couchlock and heavy sedation, and drowsiness.
