Apollo 13 refers to the lunar mission in 1970, but with everything the strain can do, leaving users spacey is not one of them… usually.
Like many Sativa-dominant strains, it delivers a mental high that induces creative thinking.
For most people, the buzzing head high does not cause one to be impaired.
But once the tolerance limit is breached, then the users do travel in space as the psychedelic effects kick in.

As the mental high kicks in, users start to feel good.

Like drinking a cup of double espresso, Apollo 13 also provides a boost in energy.
Now, this is where the strain is different from many others.
Instead of feeling spacey, users tend to have a clearer mind with better ability to focus.
For most users, they tend to feel giggly and much more sociable.
Be careful, though. Apollo 13 is still a spacecraft.
Uncontrolled, there is a tendency for psychedelic effects to kick in.
Once that happens, think about the spacecraft returning to earth without anyone in control.
Fragrance
Apollo 13 has a very peppery and earthy smell in a pleasant kind of way.
What makes it uniquely interesting is the sour tone of citrus blended in.
Admittedly, its scent may come off as a little too much for some people.
Flavors
Although it does not have a great aroma, it does do a little better when it comes to its flavors.
Instead of the more distinct earthy smell, it has a sweet taste of tea that would have been much nicer if its smoke were a little smoother than it is.
