If you shop at Perfect Union, the real fun starts when you build a lineup that actually fits your plans. This time of year, winter slowly gives way to spring, and the vibe shifts with it. Below are five picks that feel right for that in-between season. No overthinking; just solid options that work for laid-back hangs, casual catch-ups, and those friendship-month plans that don’t need to be complicated.

‍

1. Watermelon Ice by Halfpipe

Halfpipe Watermelon Ice 1g Disposable is typically positioned as a flavor-forward hybrid option. Flavor-wise, you can frame it simply as a sweet watermelon profile with a cool finish. For pacing, it suits small pulls with a pause in between, so it’s easier to keep the session light and controlled. 

Flavor and aroma

Expect a juicy watermelon pop up front with a cooler, icy finish. It leans sweet, but the sour edge keeps it from feeling flat. The aroma matches the name, fruity and fresh, with that “this is going to taste exactly like it smells” effect.

Why it makes sense in February

When you’re rotating through different friend plans, you want at least one option that feels flexible. This is the pick that can fit before the main plan, a casual catch-up, or a “we’re just hanging” night without stealing the spotlight.

Best friendship moment

Everyone met up before the main event. Someone’s getting ready, someone’s ordering food, and someone is DJing. Watermelon Ice is for that in-between window where the night is starting to click.

2. Cannalope (.5g) by Jeeter

Cannalope from Jeeter is positioned as an indica-leaning strain of the well-known Cannalope Haze x OG#13 cross. In this format, it comes as a 1g Premium THCA Diamonds Cartridge, built for shoppers who prefer a polished, elevated vape experience.

Jeeter frames Cannalope as a tropical escape in cartridge form. The flavor profile leans bright and juicy on the inhale, with melon and tropical fruit leading the way, followed by a pine-and-spice exhale that nods to its kush lineage. 

Flavor & Aroma

Expect a juicy melon-forward inhale, with tropical fruit notes that feel fresh and slightly sweet. On the exhale, pine and subtle spice come through, adding depth and keeping it from tasting overly sugary. The aroma follows the flavor; fruit-driven up front with a grounded, kush-inspired edge underneath.

Effects Positioning

Jeeter describes Cannalope as relaxing. It’s the kind of profile that suits slower evenings and more intentional downtime rather than high-energy plans. Think unwind mode, not on-the-go.

What to Know Before You Pick It

This is a premium THCA diamonds cartridge, which signals a refined oil format designed for potency and smooth pulls. It’s meant to feel elevated and clean, whether the plan is a dressed-up dinner or just upgrading a regular Friday night at home.

3. Lost Farm - Watermelon x Ice Cream Cake Live Rosin Gummies (10pk, 100mg)

Edibles make sense when the plan is stretched out, or when you want the night to unfold slowly instead of peaking fast. Lost Farm’s Watermelon x Ice Cream Cake live rosin gummies lean into that steady, indica-leaning lane, making them a natural fit for cozy hangs and low-key group nights.

Flavor & Strain Character

This one pairs a light watermelon base with Ice Cream Cake live rosin infusion. Ice Cream Cake, an indica-dominant cross of Wedding Cake x Gelato #33, is known for its vanilla-berry sweetness layered with sugary dough notes and a subtle gassy undertone.

In gummy form, that translates to fruity on the front end, then a richer, dessert-style finish that feels more layered than a standard candy edible. Lost Farm is intentional about letting the strain profile come through instead of masking everything with generic sweetness. You taste the watermelon, but you also taste the plant.

Why the Live Rosin Matters

These gummies are made with 100% live rosin, a solventless concentrate crafted to preserve the plant’s natural terpenes and cannabinoids. That means the flavor and character are meant to reflect the strain more purely.

Effect Positioning

With its indica-dominant lineage, this one is positioned toward relaxed, blissful territory. It fits slower evenings: movie marathons, long conversations, or that “we’re not going anywhere” kind of night.

Best Friendship Moment

Movie night that turns into “okay, one more episode.” Blankets out. Takeout containers on the table. Someone’s halfway through explaining a life update while everyone’s fully settled in. This is for the friend group that’s in no rush and actually enjoys the slow build of the night.

4. Astral Cookies - Glass House Farms 

Astral Cookies is one of those hybrid picks that feels built for social gravity. It’s playful without being chaotic, and laidback without it being too much. The vibe leans upbeat and giggly; the kind of flower that turns a normal hang into “why are we still laughing at this?” territory.

Bred from Thin Mints x Jealousy, Astral Cookies brings together dessert sweetness and a slightly punchy edge, which explains why it feels both familiar and elevated at the same time.

Aroma & Flavor

Opening a jar is like stepping into a celestial bakery. You get warm, sweet notes up front, followed by a crisp minty finish. The gassy undertone keeps it grounded so it doesn’t feel overly sugary or flat.

Flavor profile:

• Sweet
• Minty
• Gassy
  

Dominant terpenes include:

• Limonene - often associated with bright, citrus lift
• Caryophyllene - adds a subtle spice and depth
• Linalool - contributes soft floral notes that round things out

Together, those terpenes help explain the sweet-meets-fresh balance that defines this strain.

Effects Positioning

Astral Cookies is described as giggly, upbeat, and laidback. It’s social without being overwhelming, which makes it a solid middle-ground hybrid for group settings. 

Best Friendship Moment

Game night energy. Board games, card games, Mario Kart, or whatever competitive spiral the group ends up in. This is the pick for the friend who claims they’re going to “stay chill” and then gets way too invested by round two.

If the night calls for laughs, light competitiveness, and a little playful chaos, Astral Cookies fits the mood without overpowering it.

5. Head Change - CBX (Hybrid Flower)

Head Change is the kind of hybrid that closes out a lineup strong. Selected and bred in-house by the CBX grow team, this cross of Thicc Mint Cookies x J1 #128 leans exotic in both structure and profile. It’s not subtle, and it’s not trying to be.

With 28–31% THC and 2.3–2.7% total terpenes, this one sits firmly in the “experienced shopper” lane. Potency and terpene presence are part of the appeal here.

Structure & Aroma

The buds are dense and uniquely shaped, with darker leaves and heavy trichome coverage. Crack open the jar and you’ll notice a sweet, candied aroma first, followed by sour notes and a subtle pine finish. It’s fragrant and sticky; the kind of flower that announces itself immediately.

Flavor Profile

• Fruity
• Dessert-forward
• Light sour edge
• Subtle pine

The sweetness lingers on the palate, but the sour and pine notes keep it layered rather than one-dimensional.

Terpene Breakdown

Primary terpenes include:

• Caryophyllene - adds spice and structure
• Limonene - brings brightness and lift
• Myrcene - contributes depth and body
  

Together, that combination explains the sweet-meets-sharp balance and the strain’s expressive character.

Effects Positioning

Head Change is anticipated to lean toward:

• Creativity
• Euphoria
• Joyful energy
  

It’s described as a breakthrough hitter, meaning this isn’t the casual “one and done” pick. It’s better suited for intentional sessions, especially when the group wants something dynamic rather than sleepy.

Best Friendship Moment

The late-night pivot. The music gets louder. The conversation gets more imaginative. Someone starts pitching a business idea or planning a spontaneous trip. Head Change fits that point in the night where things feel expansive and playful.

For shoppers who appreciate terpene presence, strong potency, and a distinct flavor arc, this one rounds out the rotation with confidence.

A Simple Way to Pick Your Match

If you’re not sure where to start, think about the kind of night you’re actually planning.

If it’s social, fast-moving, and a little unpredictable, reach for something bright and easy to pass in a group setting, options like Watermelon Ice or Cannalope fit that lane well. They work in that pre-game, pre-dinner, “we’re just getting started” window without overpowering the vibe.

If the goal is a longer, slower hang, patio conversations, movie nights, or a no-rush evening, Lost Farm’s Watermelon x Ice Cream Cake gummies make more sense. Edibles are better suited for stretched-out plans where everyone wants to stay relaxed and keep the night steady.

For laugh-heavy nights and playful group energy, Astral Cookies slides in naturally. It matches competitive game nights, music sessions, and those moments where the energy builds on its own.

And if the hang is smaller and flavor is part of the experience, Head Change is the move. It’s more intentional, more terpene-forward, and better suited for a focused session rather than a chaotic crowd.

At the end of the day, the best “rotation” isn’t about chasing the loudest option. It’s about choosing the one that supports the vibe you already want.

What This Really Comes Down To

This winter-to-spring transition is all about balance. Cozy, but lighter. Relaxed, but a little more social. A good seasonal rotation leaves room for variety, easy pacing, and a bit of spontaneity.

The picks above stand out because each one does something well, whether that’s flavor, format, smoothness, or overall experience. That’s what makes them favorites behind the counter.

Keep the snacks nearby. Crack the window when it finally feels warm enough. Let the evening unfold naturally.

The right lineup doesn’t force the mood. It just supports it.
